[Of course. Faris is totally fine about Galuf's death too. It doesn't feel like an unextractable splinter in his heart, absolutely not.]

Share an existence? I don't know about that. [Actually, Faris has no idea what G'raha means when he says that. All he knows is that he does not like the idea of there being other him's around. And if the other Galuf is just as much a past-tense as Faris' own Galuf... does that mean everyone would share the same fate? Would little Sarisa still be torn from her parents, hold her dying father after years of not even knowing his name? Watch her long-lost sister almost die too many times to count?

It's too painful to think about.] Never met anyone like you back home, for instance. And I've been all over the world--both planets' worth of it--and under its seas. Not a single one with cat ears.
