[closed] i've got a heart full of sorrow, chest that feels hollow

Who: Altaïr & Hilda
When: A few days after everyone returns from the alternate timeline
Where: A rocky outcrop/cave entrance in the badlands
What: 'Brother' & 'sister' talk some heavy shit

[Altaïr isn't actually sitting in a cave when Hilda arrives.

The cave itself has been a decent place to rest, true. The front cavern is fairly shallow, but there's space enough to keep him dry and unnoticed. But he is not actually hiding himself away from the world by going beneath its land; he simply needed a place away from everyone, to reflect and think, and a safe place to camp for a night or two.

When his sis—when his friend finally makes her way there, she finds him not in it but above it, hands clasped and resting on his knees as he sits very still. He almost looks like he could be meditating, but Altaïr is not at peace.]
