His eyes flickered down to his hand when he felt Ion's fingers touch it. It was a gentle touch, and right now, it really meant something to him.
"That's...right," he replied quietly, worrying his voice might break again if he spoke up. When Ion said it like that, it at least made him feel a little better about his own circumstances. Right, it was honorable to die when they working together for what they believed in. It wasn't a war, but it was nevertheless an important mission.
Maybe if he looked at it that way, everyone could forgive him for dying at all and losing the rune. If he knew this would happen, he could have passed it on to someone else.
Ion deserved so much more, though. He couldn't be the only one helping Tyr. After a long pause, he looked back up to Ion's face and continued, "I'm sorry this had to happen, Ion... I never...thought it would come down to this..."
