[ Honestly, they didn't immediately start to even make strides towards it until literally the week before this very battle. If it took them this long...a being who has existed for 50,000 years...
Sill, they don't respond to that at first, letting a silence come over them as they battle their own thoughts. Maybe, it isn't quite as simple as numbers because they lived so long in isolation and spent only a couple free of that so far. In essence...the gap continues to be quite small as a whole - or maybe, they are simply being delusional in imagining it. ]
Do I? You may not know entirely what it means, in one sense. What form those steps are taking. But, I can tell you have started to grasp it. I have watched you well, and it feels you have made strides towards it.

[ They look at him a bit more, at Turo. They're still picking up the pieces, but in this conversation they realize that the man looked up to them so much. Somehow, it makes them feel less on shaky ground, even if the pain of that indignity remains. Even if it has shaken something so profoundly from their mind. ]

Hm, that said...I suppose that you are correct that I am lively. To the point where I'd even seem or appear more alive than most individuals. It is one of my best qualities. [ An echo of their usual confidence trickling in. ] Perhaps I should try to grasp the notion of those affirmations of yours quite a bit harder - the last that you are trying to convey to me. After all, you haven't lost the faith despite this display you saw before you.
Do take to heart that your words are appreciated quite a bit, Turo.
