It may be best to not be too judgemental about it all. He was not one of the prisoners himself.
Though, he imagines circumstances back home may be more relevant. The dead parent situation. Or whatever is going on there.
Speaking of his demeanor: something about it makes him want to embrace the dhampir. He doesn't, smartly, but -- no, there's no question that he is, indeed, tired.]
You know, that sounds fair. [He's being generous, of course, because part of him feels this also sounds like running away. It is always so much more simple to run away from one's problems.] Though in the long run, I fear it may be detrimental.
[To his health? His head? Debatable, both.] I do hope you find some respite, my friend, even if it's out here in this godsforsaken desert. And perhaps send a note every so often to inform you're still alive.
