[He responds almost immediately after Sorey speaks, after hearing the concern in his voice; he's still recovering, soaking up the security of the domain, but he doesn't want Sorey fretting needlessly. Really, he'll be fine. Already he feels a world of a difference, like coming home to Elysia after wandering through the tainted world, the gentle safety of Gramps' domain washing over him, invigorating and soothing as a fresh rain.

It's not like anyone else in the world had ever made him feel as safe as Sorey.
The moments pass in quiet, calming silence until at last he feels halfway normal again, the lingering sensation of the malevolence swept clean from his body.]
