[ Is this the second time he's heard about chocolate? Might be. He still doesn't know what it is, but fruit and honey he understands. He listens as Rinwell speaks, eyes on her. His expression shifts when hers do; he hears it, the way she stumbles before she fills it in with adults instead. It's not hard to guess what she'd initially meant to say.

He doesn't ask outright, but: ]

We collected it on our own. [ He props his foot up on a stool to rest his knee. ] Mostly took care of ourselves.

[ He doesn't know how old Rinwell was when she found herself orphaned. But he does know what it feels like. ]

[ There's a sidelong glance for Geralt, listening to what he says. It's nice, to realise other worlds had similar traditions (and similar frozen regions).

And there's a hint, or what she hopes is a hint, that maybe he understands better than she initially thought he would.

She smiles, and nods slowly. She's already said more than she'd planned today. But that's alright. It's a good sign that she's coming out of her shell, if slowly. ]

It got harder, when I was older. But I hope I can get to do it again, someday. Maybe not here [what is snow in Cadens, obviously] but maybe in the Horizon.
