Wanted the easy friendship that had taken months to form but had lasted. Jokes over Dungeons and Dragons. Chatting about magic. But all he could bring himself to do was nod, not even the smile he wanted to give him. As it felt like a countdown timer that he had known about since the day he met Max was clicking down the last minutes, hours if he was lucky. He didn't even let Prudence's prickly comments bother him. The shield had been his main weapon for his whole life. His family didn't kill with magic. None of his spells [i]should[/i] be able to. But he had had ideas since he had been in an alternate reality and met a broken version of himself. A version that had been willing to break the family laws. And Ed knew that this place would be where he broke them. He would ensure the world was safe for his children. The 5 of them were soon at the base of the mountain. He considered offering to carry Runa, or put her on a shield and let her float up the mountain. He decided he'd wait. If she started to fall behind and stumble he would. He wouldn't leave her behind. He needed at least one person who knew him beside him.
