"I do? "
The man nodded and continued washing. "The way you study the world, and your quiet determination is exactly like his when he was younger. That, and how you're protective over someone you care deeply about. That's a strong trait decedent of good kings of the past."

Cenric looked down. "Oh. " at the second part of the statement he looked back up. "She was nice to me, even with a sprained ankle. "

"Anyone with a good heart would treat you well, boy," Forest smiled as he finished up the last of what needed to be washed. "You've a good heart, one that shouldn't be tossed around for someone's pleasure." He looked at him, green eyes keen. "And now that' you're here, I can guarantee that no harm will come to you."

Cenric's eyes widened in shock, staring at him for a few minutes. "Forest.." balling his fist near his waist he looked down quickly his jaw clenching-doing his best not to cry.

"Forest.."
When he looked down, Forest ruffled his hair gently before he stood. "And it's okay to cry when you need to-- or want to. It's most definitely not a sign of weakness. In fact, some of the strongest people I know take a moment to shed a little before pushing onward, lighter than they were if they held it in. He steps to the door of the room, looking back at him. "And you're definitely a warrior at heart."

Cenric bit his lip before tears streamed his cheeks. His arm flew to cover his eyes despite what the man had said. He knew that it wasn't wrong to cry, he just had never been given a chance after his mother died, there hadn't even been a funeral. The time he did cry after was the last time he did. Until now, and he couldn't get the tears to stop flowing.

He stepped out to grab a soft cloth, then he walked back in to the boy, taking a seat near him with a gentle look. He waited in silence for some time before he held the cloth out.

Cenric looked over as the cloth invaded the side of his vision, his hand slowly reaching for it. Wiping his eyes and blowing his nose he looked at the older man gratefully. "Thank you."

"Thank you."
Forest nodded and stood, stepping back into the other room and checked on Ro. Then, he began to work on some of the herbal remedies he had on his list to do but hadn't got to them yet.

Roala cracked her eyes open before glancing around. Pulling the furs around her she sat up with a groan. Disoriented she stood, remembering that she had heard a mention of soup. A few steps and she walked to the bowl that held the liquid.

Forest looked up as he felt movement under his feet, his eyes finding Roala. However, he didn't say anything, turning back to his work and left her be as she ate.

Roala fixed her bowl as soon as Cenric walked back in. Moving she sat back in the floor to eat, gaze traveling to him. "A moment Cenric." As he walked over she glanced over his clothes a moment, giving a hum. "Since I have a job now we can go get you some new clothes. Won't that be exciting?"
Cenric shook his head. "I can still wear these. You don't have to do that. "

Iniago darts through the trees and breaks out into the open, startling several people as he charged through the town and towards the blacksmith's home. He skids to a stop, sending snow everywhere as he panted, expression both pained and furious when he shifts.
Forest watched the two with a smile, content to see everyone well and at home. Or starting to feel at home.

"I can still wear these. You don't have to do that. "
"No but I will. Besides Forest will be taking you into town to help you pick. " she smiled at the man tauntingly.

Just getting home, Caspian sighs when he sees no sign of the two and places the stew on the table before his head snaps around to the window as snow hits it. Frowning, he walks to the door and opens it, glancing around till his eyes land on the wolf, frowns
