[Dagger is sitting outside, enjoying the fresh air. As she sits her fingers brush the "voice" option on her journal. Her voice is heard singing a song softly to herself. When she finishes she realizes what she did]

I apologize if I bothered anyone. I sing that song sometimes when I'm feeling lost or confused. It's soothing for me and makes me feel calmer.

Not at all. I've just been enjoying the pleasant weather.

[unblessed]

It's nice out, isn't it? The breeze is even better a night. It's very soothing.

[losthorn]

That sounds lovely.

[unblessed]

It really is. I think it might be one of the nicest things about this place. [When he says that, though, he wonders about something.] Have you been here long, Dagger?

[losthorn]

No, I've only recently arrived here. That's part of the reason why I was singing: to feel closer to home.

[unblessed]

Oh. Have you been feeling homesick?

[losthorn]

Yes... Especially for my friends.

[unblessed]

Me, too... [Even if he didn't particularly get along with all of them.] But I think music is always a good way to feel close to home.

[losthorn]

Do you have a special song from your home that you like to play?

[unblessed]

Well, maybe not from my home... [He's thoughtful for a moment. There was nothing that special to him. Then again...] But there is a song. A song for a dear friend. Would you like to hear it?

[losthorn]

I would love to.

[unblessed]

[He nods, pulling out his flute. The song he plays is soft gentle, but a little sad. He's always been awful at naming his songs, but he makes up for them with his playing.]

[losthorn]

[she closes her eyes to listen] It's lovely.

[unblessed]

[Capell feels content when he finishes playing. He hasn't played that song in a long time. He blinks at her comment, though, a bit bashfully.]

Do you think so? I haven't played in a while, I think I might be a little rusty...

[losthorn]

If you want to practice, I'll be willing to listen.

[unblessed]

R-really? [The offer is unexpected, but...] I would really appreciate that. It'd be nice to play for an audience.

[...one that will actually listen!]

[losthorn]

[she smiles at him] Please, go on.
