"Ah," the sudden appearance was surprising to say the least, almost enough for the bundle of firewood Yuna had been carrying to jump from her arms -- though she managed to keep a hold on it. "It's you..." she hadn't seen him since that first excursion, since she'd arrived in this world... How long ago was that now?

"Um, yes," she paused, letting his observation sink in. She hadn't really ventured outside of Skyhold since they'd arrived back then, the loss of her aeons dealing quite the blow to her means of protecting herself in the face of demons. But whether or not it was good that she was still here... that remained to be seen.

"You... you're all right, too?"

"Yes," he answered simply. "I made it back from the Mire."

He looked up at the firewood in her arms. "You're bringing wood to the tavern -- I could help." He stood, then, preparing to follow her.

Something about this young man captivated Yuna, enough so that she had to look down at the bundle in her arms before finally answering. "Oh, yes," hadn't she just said that? "Please, thank you," she halved its weight, offering a few logs over Cole's way, and starting out again.

"Do you -- often go out when there are Rifts that large? The party that left -- came back with new people from otherworlds, didn't it..."

He accepted the offer, and walked at a pace with her when she started off, staying right at her side.

"I wasn't there this time. But I know there are new ones. So many shards, scattered through the Fade..." No telling how many there would be, all told.
