[She hums softly, letting her eyes close to block out the stinging light. It's a little nice, she has to admit, being fussed over like this. The Wizard looked after her, obviously, as much as someone her age needed looking after. He checked in on her often, made sure she was eating, how she was feeling. All around the things any good parent would do, despite their lack of blood relation. But more and more lately it was feeling like she was his caretaker.
So this attention, this fatherly affection from someone who'd just lost his son...it's nice. And it gnaws at her gut like a corvid picking at a carcass.]
