@fxrtunas asked: "Why are there so many stairs in this tower of yours."
it wasn’t exactly his crystal tower— he wished, he was merely the pale imitation of its past owner, serving only as its watcher at best. so he supposed he couldn’t solve such a curious mystery on his own despite having ransacked the archive of this very structure from the moment he was destined to be bound here. a regrettable feat, but he still humoured allan nonetheless.
‘ ‘twould seem the answer lies with the fallen allagan empire, mine apologies. but i’m sure it will benefit your health greatly if you walk these stairs every day. ’ g’raha said, smiling, chuckling— he just couldn’t seem to stop smiling these past few days as the viera’s visit slowly intensified in frequency. revered as the crystal exarch as he was, there were time he felt unbearably lonely and homesick, something that he had been trying to push into the deepest corner of his heart for so long ere the arrival of souls hailed from the source. it wouldn’t be too exaggerating to say that allan’s presence always brought him a gentle sense of comfort.
‘ now come, friend, and tell me, to what do i owe the pleasure of your visit? ’
