"My father and brother, really. Though nearly every Caelus turns out to be a mage, so an inclination to scholarship is rather a given. But you'd understand, if your family's the same."
Praying to a legitimate, reasonably benevolent goddess is the least dubious thing he's up to lately. Perhaps Adia could take comfort in that (provided she didn't think about it too hard). Felix hmms quietly. "Truthfully, making such a fuss over a betrothal is the sort of sport only the wealthy can afford, even in Cyrodiil."
But all this pleasant conversation is just a prelude. Felix half-closes his eyes for a minute, listening closely for any sound around them, before he looks up at Adia again. Quite intently this time.
"How have you really been, Adia? Nothing else has... happened, since we last spoke?"
Way to help your friend relax and enjoy her evening in an alien setting, Felix. But he has quite a few matters on his mind, just now.
(Was that Harrowheart, walking past the open door?)
