[ She's right about Torgal, and he smiles a little at the thought, though it doesn't last long, because he realizes: ]
He's not here with you either, then, is he?
[ Torgal, he means. ]
Then we can count him lucky to not be trapped here like us.
[ That hurts, the realization that while it made sense that Torgal hadn't arrived with him, he'd left the wolf with Jill to protect her. So if Jill was here, and Torgal wasn't, then..
Torgal was left alone. Again. Another reason to find a way back home as soon as possible. Even if it meant his death. He feels guilty about it, but there's also a sense of relief as well, because the last thing Clive wants is for someone else he loves to get caught up in whatever mess he's been forcibly conscripted into. ]
Jill, [ he says, almost sighing her name out as he leans his forehead against hers once more, closing his eyes. ]
