At first, he thinks she just means the two of them, and agrees. It would definitely be unwise of anyone to try to separate the two of them, and he nods in the affirmative. Then, cluing in to her wording, he looks thoughtful. "You mean the world as a whole. We'll have to see how long that holds. I have yet to see any signs of hostility between the faction leaders, but it does seem like Aella feels free to editorialize a bit, doesn't it?"

He wouldn't go so far as to say she was trash talking Cordelia a few weeks back, but it was a near thing, depending on how sensitive they all are.

Terra, on the other hand, has yet to say much of anything he's aware of, and getting a glimpse of her now, he wonders whether she's keeping the peace, or whether she merely expresses herself in terms of the life that springs up around her. Maybe it's because he's with Anthem, but he feels the pull of affection as if someone has slipped a hand into his chest and tugged at his heart.

"Yes," he says, though this is only the second time he's glimpsed her. "Each of them must be in their rooms. Given how rarely we see them, that's interesting, isn't it? Either this is a very sacred celebration, or they're worried."

He can't fully trust any of them, but he has to admit, watching Terra now, she seems by far the most wholesome of the trio. "Maybe they gain some strength and reassurance from us being here."
