It can't be so difficult, he must turn up at some point... Perhaps we can still prevent something.

Either he's had something idiotic planned from the start or he's off not planning at all. This isn't helping!

I'll... I'll speak with some others. I'll confront Hans, and you... just keep looking for him? But don't stray too far, he may go to you.

If I don't go too far I'm not going to cover much ground, Oren. There are only so many places I even know to try looking in, I wouldn't know where to start after that.

...I'll check the water, though. It's the only place you wouldn't really be able to look.

[And on the off chance Mattias just doesn't want to be found, well-- he's aquatic too, isn't he? With Ryan's reluctance to go near deep water, it'd be good for avoidance.]

Leave covering ground to me! If there's anyone he returns to, isn't it more likely to be you?

...I should add that he can't swim. You must remember that no matter what creature he is, our world had very little water. Even Renacht knew it was holy. It wasn't wasted.

...ok, fair point. I guess that's sort of a relief, honestly.

But I can't just- stick close to here and not DO anything, waiting would drive me crazy faster than anything

I mean I'd hate to not be here if he did show up, but

Oren? Do you think he's alright?

[It takes longer than normal for this to be sent.]

To better aid our searching, we should hope that he is.

But that could change.

Shall we update one another as we check areas?

[It's about what he expected, but... not terribly reassuring.]

I'll try to keep my hopes up.

And yeah, let's. Not that it's pointless to cover the same ground, but- not too close together, that won't help much.
