So long as there weren't any spiders in them, they were quite lovely." And, of course, save for that incident with Tamlen, but those were ruins not caves, not really. She still rather loved ruins. There was so much history soaked deep into them.

"Did you live in a cave where you came from?" she asked, no judgement at all in her voice.
