[ That's all that Sorey could ever ask for. More than, even.
He's going to follow the path they both know he needs to walk, even if it is a lonely road, but he's grateful just to know that at the end of it will be this love he's found, right there waiting for him. Just the thought alone leaves his chest swelling with warmth, a smile so deep and warm taking hold that his cheeks nearly hurt.

He won't be alone. They've met so many comrades - they have family in Elysia.
[ The words -- and the increasing ease with which he says them -- further swell Sorey's chest with all that warmth and fullness he could once only imagine.
Carefully, he lifts their joined hands to his lips. ]
