[Silence pervades as Soren reflects. Searching for thoughts in the turbidity of his ordinarily clear and sharp mind proves difficult. His brow cinches in focused confusion as he dredges up the bitter thoughts he was having only minutes prior to Mogget's appearance.
It would be easy enough to dismiss the magical cat and remind him that his business is his own, but Soren falls not to those usual dismissive tactics this time. No. His foggy memory swirled further by the influence of the full moon frustrates him too much. He must triumph over himself and the damage wrought upon him for fear that one of the qualities that made him most instrumental to Ike and his company would disappear.
As it turns out, the thought he left behind was a troubling one, and pain carves its way onto the dragon's face in a flicker of time, legible to those perceptive enough and quite capable of seeing in wan light.]
My commander... Yes, I'm sure that was it. Ike. [His eyes trace the mirror's frame that only he can see. Where was he? Why isn't he by his side? His pulse begins to storm his chest.] Please remind me what I was saying. I'm not... quite with it tonight.
