He was, however, surprised to see the boy, who he'd seen before, twice now in fact, through the eyes of different Paths, had ventured near his borders again.
And this time, just over, which let him have an excuse to approach. He looked tired and worn still, true, but he'd been improving, and feared nothing from the youth who currently had his curiosity.
