It took some time before Dardul agreed to allow her to walk inside his soul. Valdis knew that he must remember something of their last encounter for him to be so wary of her, which was why she had explained and asked multiple times for the opportunity to find out more about him. When he finally said yes, it was with the condition that Milyn be present. Valdis’ unease at having the kedan woman there was well hidden and she moved with confidence, explaining once more to Dardul exactly what she was doing, before opening the pathway and wandering into his soul.
She walked through many happy memories. His times with his family, his relationship with Yunxu, unsurprising but now confirmed. The then young Yunxu had been filled with joy once and Valdis began to think that whatever had happened to twist and ruin Enon’s mind and soul hadn’t just broken him, but Yunxu as well.
She moved on, growing increasingly upset as she flowed though the last coherent memories she could find. She bristled and returned back along the path she had opened. Valdis’ eye were a bright red when she opened them and settled her gaze on Milyn. She remained calm, squashing the anger that had risen and incredibly thankful that they were in the Hotel.
“Dardul?” she asked, her voice steady, but cold, “Can you please give Milyn and I the room?”
She waited until he did as she asked, frowing at Milyn when she asked him to stay in the Hotel for safety reasons. Valdis would have asked the same, but her distrust of Milyn had increased exponentially. Once the confused kedan had shut the door and his footsteps had faded, Valdis allowed herself to relax a bit, letting the red fade from her eyes, contrary to how she might have reacted just a month or two ago.
