[He tilts his head just a little as he continues to look at Mikleo, to wait for him to... collect himself (that seemed the right word to use in this instance) from whatever it was that had the seraph pausing a little after their battle. Sorey would almost say that the other was remembering something from a while back but he didn't share that memory right away. Instead he grins as though it was the first battle they've had together in a while which is ridiculous considering it hadn't been that long ago they'd had their last fight.
It doesn't take too much longer before Mikleo finally speaks instead of just staring at him and that is weird and he doesn't like it because there's something still off but Sorey doesn't have any answers for himself yet. When Mikleo does explain what's happening, Sorey listens in silence and almost opens his mouth to respond (what he thought he was going to say, he's not sure) but then closes it again.
Of course his friend is right. It is hard to wrap his head around the story he's just been told and part of him thinks that it's impossible, while another is curiously excited about this other world - "Crystallis". A vague thought that there must be all kinds of ruins there that they know nothing about is quickly crushed by the knowledge of what he still has to do here in Glenwood... in their world. If there is a rift to some other world, he can't let the Malevolence spread to it and he has to save gramps and stop Heldalf, become a vessel for Maotelus.
Even though he's reaching the end of this journey, there are still so many things he has to accomplish. Now is not the time to go off to some other world.
So Sorey goes with the questions he has to ask rather than the millions he wants to. His right hand clenches tightly at his side.]
What about you... about Heldalf? If we close these rifts will you go back there or will you stay here?
[Is that what's off? That Mikleo might not go with him? Maybe it is part of it.]
