[Rosa used to use that same tactic on him too, and it’s effective. Reminding him of his strength always works wonders with Kain.]

True enough, we all have our role to play out there on a field of battle. We depend on one another’s specialties to be truly effective.

[And whatever else is going on with Anders, despite what others have said, Kain sees no reason to bear ill will toward him. Not when he understands where he’s coming from, what he’s dealing with, to at least some extent. Besides, all he cares about is whether or not people are competent in the midst of combat. Personal matters and inner demons don’t matter so much. All that matters is doing what you’re supposed to.]

At least I know I have a healer I can trust.

[Though of course, he’s sure he’ll get to know more over time as well. It’s how things tend to go with Kain.]

Thank you, I appreciate it… you can rest assured that I have the sense to always go out there well supplied.

[He’s not a total fool just a partial one, and at least starts out any expedition well prepared. He may push himself too far when he runs out, but still.]
