"A thousand years..." That took some time for him to think about. "I have been gone for some time." He had no idea what the Terre d'Ange That Lies Beyond was, but he had to admit that he liked the sound of it. It sounded like Heaven, where his grandfather was but... better.
"You will have to tell me how Terre d'Ange has been doing in the last thousand years." He would never abandon Terre d'Ange, not if there was anything he could do about it. He loved the land too fiercely to do that.
Suddenly he chuckled. "Where are my manners. Come, child of Shemhazai, we should at least sit somewhere before I make you recount one thousand years and more of my country's history." He took hold of Joscelin's hand with a gentle but insistent grip, heading to one of the many cafes that had outdoor seating.
