[ It's near impossible to ignore the words of someone sent in the wake of a retreat, though he considers it, the first step away faltering slightly, the pace too short.

(Keep moving, keep walking away--everyone around you will die away but the Bookmen live on.)

Lavi stops, though he doesn't turn his head back. Lets the words and the small puff of air brush over him in distant waves, their impact felt but their gravity mitigated by far celestial bodies. His shoulders square, denying the temptation to bow in defeat or weariness.

In the privacy of a turned back, Lavi pulls the bound books a little closer to his chest. His smile melts away, expression not quite cold but passively resigned. ]

...So it seems.

[ Somber, soft, the lilt of mourning there.

Lavi takes another step, away, free hand waving idly at his side. ]

At least for now.
