Between his mother, Ojo, Beoluin, and all the others he'd encountered on the road, there had been a lot of negativity. But now, it seemed that maybe it was at an end.
"Th-thank you," he stumbled, putting his arm delicately around her in a returning hug, patting her shoulder a bit. "It's nice to hear, I can tell you."
