The man chuckled at the man's sudden response after being so still for what seemed whole minutes, his purple eyes lighting up, though just shortly. It was something he saw about the man.

He faced Reynar, his eyes giving off a low haze inside the shadows that illuminated a small grin, "To exist is to have awareness, right...?" he said, then abruptly turning around to begin walking down the alleyway, "Even if we're aware of what happens around us, what more is a life we don't wish to continue?"

The sound of heels pattering down on cement acted as though a short countdown while the man gave Reynar time to take everything in before he answered anyways, 

"Reason." 

His voice was light as his footsteps came to a halt, "I can feel it within you... realizing the truth of death. You've regained hope in continuing your existence."

"...But let me ask you this." He says, turning his head to the side, "Wherever we go doesn't matter right now; the real question is what you will do with the new life you've been handed? This second chance?"
