[It's a good thing they get their seafood delivered, is all. At least that was an easy discussion; Yuan doesn't argue about going, and Kratos doesn't argue about Yuan coming. Breakfast is characterised by conversation in the local languages, as is becoming familiar these days, with Yuan drilling Kratos. Also becoming familiar is Kratos drilling Yuan back, in Tethe'alla's trade language.
[The shopping list, these days, is also written in both the local languages and in Tethe'alla's leading dialect.
[But once they leave the house, Kratos falls quiet, not for any other reason but -- this feels odd. Yuan's never accompanied him on a market trip before, and his presence feels strange. Add to that the churning dread which starts in Kratos's gut before they've gone far, and he doesn't have much to say.
[At least when they get to the market Kratos is pleased to find he's standing up better than of late, thanks to the extra rest. It's a familiar sight, and one which doesn't ease his dread all that much, despite the colourful awnings and banners ranged across several vertically-layered ledges and paths.]
