I'm just trying to imagine what Gilear looks like eating yogurt. Just staring off into the distance with a defeated look as he slowly, gently lifts the spoon towards his mouth - only for a good bit hanging precariously off the end to fall directly onto his shirt. Gilear, however, is too preoccupied to notice as he looks into his neighbor's window where he can barely make out what's on the TV, half the screen blocked by a very large, very hairy orc sitting on a LayZBoy. Gilear doesn't have a TV of his own, and for now the orc is watching his favorite halfling show host's cooking segment where - oh, nevermind, he changed it to flying monstertruck bash. That's... fine. Gilear can focus back on his yogurt for now. Ohh, there's nothing on his spoon. Did he take a bite without noticing? Oh, how... unlike him.

I do love the genuine character development between Fig and Gilear. She realized that she treated him like garbage and wants to connect as a family again. Gilear also made huge mistakes. When he said “That demon is not my daughter” it was the thing that tore the relationship. But she comes to see what he had to go through and learns to forgive him. He sacrificed an amazing career working with the elven government to be a father. And he was happy with that. He thought he found the women he loved and wanted to spend his eternity with. Only to find out that it was a lie.
