He became a bit reassured as Eclipse mentioned that the Stormbringers were a good folk, but could not help but keep the little twist on his muzzle. The sourness of what was mentioned about the Lykoi still tasted awful on his tongue, and it was all he can manage to do was to listen to the woman as she went on about key points in the family, it seemed. Robert remembered Eclipse mentioning Saul once—maybe it was in passing when they were talking about Grace and her foal. Never the less, he felt better when the conversation turned casual, and formed a rather normal image of the Stormbringers.
But, he knew when she took in that notable breath, that there was more to it. He prepared himself inwardly, but for what, he was not sure. To hear that they were killers, and for her to word it like she somewhat agreed, set the picture in Robert's head into a stereotypical image: a normal looking family, smiling face, suddenly turning mischievous and malicious. He truly did not grasp what killers were—there was nothing to blame by the young adult criminal books he would read.
He wanted to tell her that she wouldn't end up like Haku, but he vaguely remembered having a conversation similar like such before, and decided not to fight with her about it now when they had to get somewhere post-haste, and he would rather arrive to the now ominous Stormbringer clan on good terms. He would prove to her one day that she was not to be haunted by such things, but at that moment, it was not it. He felt her become happier, and concreted himself to remain silent about what just transpired between them, his downcast smile turning up a bit as things seemed to get lighter for her.
His mouth then shot downwards as a harsh wind came from behind them, and gripped the reins in shock as it went pass. When she spoke of cantering, Robert gave an unsure "okay", and soon they were off. All dark thoughts were banished from mind, for all he could focused on was the regret to agree with galloping.
