Reynir turns to look over at Ami for a moment - so she had met Lalli and Onni, but not talked to them or spent enough time with them to know he was connected to them in any way. It's confusing but only for a moment. He supposes he hasn't mentioned either of them, as well. Just one of those funny coincidences.

Except nothing feels all that funny, now.

None of Reynir's usual bouncy energy is there in him, right now. He stands there, still and quiet, arms loose at his sides, staring at the dead troll, the hole in the floor. The more the fear fades, the more room it leaves for guilt and grief. It had been so close. It could have happened differently - should have.

"It's a troll."

Reynir doesn't know how much Ami might know. He sighs, all wavery and heavy, and adds:

"Something that used to be human. Their souls are still trapped in there. I'm a mage so. I can hear them. They just... scream, mostly."
