[The words almost catch in his throat. It's a dream, he wants to tell himself. He just still dreaming. That's the only explanation. Nephry is back on Auldrant along with all the others... and he was sent here because he had no home to go to, right? That's the only explanation that made sense.]
[But be this a dream or reality, he finds he can't just be satisfied with staying silent. It wasn't everyday someone approached him to talk -- outside of a few casual acquaintances around the city, he didn't talk to people very often these days. And if he really did remind this woman of her son, perhaps it would make her happy if he were to talk with her? He still keeps his eyes low, not sure he'd be able to keep his voice steady if he were to continue looking up.]
