[The look upon Alphianud's face is priceless. It's almost as if the youth doesn't know whether to be thrilled or appalled. Shari did warn him of the possibilities but he never thought to take her words seriously. He stares at Haurchefant in utter silence for a few moments before suddenly snapping out of his daze. It's then that he offers the Ishgardian a smile as he welcomes him.]

Pray forgive the outburst. [He states apologetically with a sigh. Stranger things have happened before but this is by far one of the strangest.] It seems I've forgotten my manners.

[Despite the sheer awkwardness of this reunion, Alphinaud cannot help but feel quite ecstatic to see Haurchefant after all this time. The boy can't stop smiling now. The corners of his lips keep curling upward. While the truth behind this miraculous resurrection remains unknown, Alphinaud is momentarily appeased.]

Have you come to assist our friend here?

[He turns his attention towards the bed-bound patient beside him.]

The malady seems to grow worse by the day but at least they're sleeping peacefully.
