“Maybe. But I’m going to insist that this is even more unfair” - he comments. Seeing Vanth like that, simply because he had chosen to do the right thing and play by the rules of the game, hardly seemed fair. If he could, Adolin would choose to share the burden of it with him. And he was certain Sebastian would do the same without a second thought. But apparently, that wasn’t how the Stars liked to play.
Listening to him, he immediately agreed about protecting Vanth, unable to hide a hint of surprise at the extent of the trust Sebastian was placing in him at that moment. “If that’s the case… I’ll take good care of him. You don’t need to worry” - he assured him, and it seemed like he was about to say something else, but whatever it was, he stopped himself and decided to let it be.
Sebastian places a hand on the man's shoulder and sighs softly. There's relief behind that sigh, albeit not too noticeable. "I know," he says quietly. He knows that Vanth is in great hands with Adolin.
"Morpheus will be coming with me. Keep him warm." He lowers himself to place a gentle kiss upon Adolin's temple. A form of thank-you, perhaps.
"I will not be long."
And with that, he steps away. With a simple movement of his hand, Morpheus is right by his side, leaving Vanth behind reluctantly, of course.
Sebastian and Morpheus sets out to scavange for whatever they'll need for Vanth.
