It's for Uncle Nevil and I ask it in Aunt Lilámani's name. "Roy, when I came home, the change in him made me miserable. He's never really got over losing her. And you've been sort of lost too for the time being. I can see how he's wearing his heart out with wanting you: though I don't suppose he has ever said so.
