Estinien watches Jaskier get up, oddly touched by the faith the man seems able to put in him. He supposes, for appearance's sake, they shouldn't talk much longer - but he appreciates Jaskier's outlook, even if it's hard to rationalize. He wants to believe this connection will help them, somehow. That maybe it will all mean something in the end.

"She told me much the same," he admits, and as he does, there is the slightest bit of meekness to it. He's not a man that accepts compliments easily, but when he has multiple people insisting that he should try to stay alive, for her sake and his own, it would be cowardly to deny them outright.

"I can only hope you have the right of it," he says, smiling faintly. "My thanks, Jaskier."

For what exactly he won't say, but this is two times now that Jaskier has been compassionate towards him without urgent cause. He can appreciate that, and he can appreciate the goodness Jaskier seems to see in people.

He will pray that he is proved right.
