I think it will. I know he remembers her - I brought him here.
[ for now, he seems content just stand. this place isn't his temple, and melora isn't his god, but the vibe of it is nice. the abundant terrace is a good place to be; the wildmother really does come with the sense of home. it'll be meaningful, for shale, even more than it is for vax.
he stays standing for now, leaning against one of the boughs of the great trees, and just watches. for a moment, vax is internal, reflecting on his world, on the connection he has with a place just like this, and on the little thread that connects his life to shale's, one that neither of them was initially aware of. it's part of what makes helping him so meaningful - it feels like vax is able to return the favor.
he's quiet for a long while, just soaking in the moment, and then eventually says, quietly; ]
[both because it helps, and because... well. it's a peaceful place, he thinks. he'd like to see it in person, someday.]
I know Bass fairly well, and I have received input on Steel, but... that leaves Riff, if I wish to keep my options open. I believe you are closer than I to him, as well.
vax shifts a little, folding his arms and looking at out at the peaceful, quiet abundant grove - emet gets a half smile at the first part, but. ]
...I think... stuff about his home's not gonna help. He's in a - his situation sucks.
[ easiest just to say it bluntly. ] I think...Iunno how much you can influence it, but I think more than anything, he needs to rely on Bass. The two of them need to talk their shit out, because I think the answer he's scared of's not going to be all that scary.
[ there's a beat. he reaches up, scrubs a hand briefly over his face. ]
Bass is a good kid, and they're close. I think Riff - Rindo's just afraid of what could happen, because all the stuff he's half remembered is shit.
[ mm. it's hard. it's hard to describe in the way their little conversation with bass had gone earlier in the week - vax'ildan does know what that void of emotions feels like, that terror, that depression that drags you down by your ankles. ]
I think acceptance. Or, at least - letting him know he's not alone. Iunno how easy that would be in a dream.
[ there's a beat, and he laughs a little. ] Maybe send him a raven, too.
Maybe something with music. [ vax huffs, a little amused - there’s the distant sound of a strummed lute, and a gnome wearing purple weaves down the path, serenading to another gnome in armor, in a language that’s hard to hear. ] A little inspiration.

[a quiet sigh, a shake of his head.]
Encouragement to speak to Bass, then, which I'm sure we are already giving...
Were I to give him one of the dreams, then, what do you believe would prove encouraging in easing that fear of learning more or of leaving this place?

Mayhap I shall.
So: acceptance in some form, and... mayhap a dream of speaking to Bass. Assisting the other two, as well.
