[ Dion's clarification gets a small smile. He understands. He has used the same reasoning before - withstanding the pain of the curse, the horrible coughing, the blood, because he has been through worse.

I will let you off easily, then, so long as you can promise me you will take something if the ache is too much. We are allowed to afford ourselves a kindness from time to time.
[ The hunk of bread gets dipped into his mug, but he eyes Dion as he eats it, careful not to drip broth on himself. It's probably for the best not to give it too much attention - it gives the thing power, after all. But even so, the fact that both his brother and Dion have been harmed by that thing in the woods...
He doesn't like it. He has always chosen the better way, has always chosen kindness, but not when it comes to gods going after Clive. And now, not when it comes to Dion. ]
If you insist. Though, I might ask Beiwe if there is a way to remove it. I know not whether it might inflict the corruption, but it is better safe than sorry.
