Vayne glanced over to his brother and viewed the boy's consternation with an amused expression. He told Squall quietly, "I see that your group is quite lively. This should serve Larsa well. I fear he has been too much secluded and protected to his detriment." Privately, he thought if the boy was occupied dealing with the energetic females who were doting on him, that left him less time to find himself in the company of others which would not meet Vayne's approval.

After another moment spent diverted by the group, he bade both brother and guards farewell, taking his leave in the direction of the castle.
