Zel took and read the message. It was a back story alright, and not a particularly happy one either. Then again, back stories were rarely happy if they were worth giving. Fourteen huh? That was a pretty awful year for him too... Unfortunately, he remembered the events before that with far too much accuracy... And the years after.<br/><br/>So, Zel thought, it wasn't necessarily the scars she was concerned with, but the memories, or rather the lack of, which came with them. Zel gave the matter some thought. Larea seemed concerned with her forgotten past, but he had his own matters to take care of... On the other hand, he needed information from various places in order to accomplish what he was hoping to. The two goals could possibly cross.<br/><br/>After thinking for a moment, Zel spoke to Larea, slower than he normally did. "Are you sure you want to remember? Sometimes memories can be harder to bear than the absence of. If you're interesting in finding out though, I may have some free time after this little journey of ours is over."<br/><br/>It was true, he may have some free time after this... On the other hand, depending on what he found, he could be whisked away someplace else. And if her missing memories had been of traumatic events, it might just be better if she didn't go searching for them. Mostly, he was just offering as a friend. Part of him hoped she turned the offer down, but it was entirely her decision.
