History Repeats

You could still be what you want to — (what you said you were when I met you) She was distracted. Korri realized this a little after approaching her, as the echoes of her voice died in his ears. Tallis! A name? Of a friend, or maybe a god? He had no way of knowing, but he regarded her sympathetically. Arriving in the Portal was unpleasant to say the least — Korri remembered his own entrance well. Both the sudden solidity of the ground and the sudden, aching emptiness where his raven once lived. A vivid memory, a wound refusing to heal. He swallowed all that feeling down. "A pleasure, Evangeline," Korri said. He suspected her heart wasn't in the greeting, but manners were manners, so he responded in kind. His small head tilted a bit as he wondered what, exactly, was going through her head. At mention of the Rift, though, Korri's small ears darted up in surprise. "It is!" he replied. "You're better informed than most people I run across here. Were you looking for something in particular?" Korri ❤
