When Calla cried with her face buried in his shirt, when he gave Harriett her gift, in his first bout against Brenia, when Celtine gave him the solution for his problem with archery, whenever he received a letter from Galana, Calla feeding him her stew, the two servants comforting him, when Mable got overexcited for his success and of course, the one that just triggered his understanding, the kiss on his cheek. There where so many smaller things too, dueling Brenia, seeing Calla hide from the passerby across the street, the smile of Mable, all the attentions of Harriett and the mere close proximity of Celtine. Not all had the same weight in his heart but all were great, that was why he sought them. He liked giving gifts because of Harriett's reaction, he wouldn't have liked sparring so much if he had not fought Brenia after the other group.
