After being with Cayto for a good amount of time now, the two of them fairly close in their relationship and now an official couple, Lohkri finally finds the courage to delve into his past and apprise the mage of why he was exiled from the U tribe in the Forgotten Springs.

Pretty heavy stuff ahead 🥲

A few days later, after their unnecessary argument over whether or not Lohkri should have gone to Cayto for his help of black magic, the viper had been perusing tomes around the mage's apartment to learn more about it. He still remembered what it felt like pulling that aether from his body to attempt to bring Boony to life like Cayto had showed him, and Lohkri's curiosity and will to learn more about magic in general had sparked a snowball effect.

Sitting in the reading nook downstairs, there were two extra books piled to his right while one sits comfortably in his lap. His black-tipped ears bob up and down as his dilated, gold eyes skim the pages to make sense of what he could, so the next time he works with Cayto on it he'd make him proud. Lohkri is wearing his loose white linen tunic with the usual blood orange scarf that was neatly tied around his waist, and a pair of plain dark brown pants. He must have been sitting here for at least two or so hours.
