Toru ran calloused fingers aimlessly over the top of his desk, feeling the wood beneath with no particular thought as Daichi quickly picked out the lie amongst the two particular truths. It seemed that he had gotten the hang of it, at least for Toru it did seem that way.
"If they are alive, she must at least be three years old by now."
She was the Daimyo's child and had his mother still been around as the leader, this little girl would have been the heir to become the Daimyo in the future. But the position was forfeit as soon as they had departed. The abandonment was extra sharp and thinking about it made the well of emotion inside of Toru that he kept buried start to bubble up. The slightest heightened tinge of red to his eyes indicated that he felt strongly about this abandonment. That somewhere deep in there, the young boy that had relied on that adoption was still sorrowful and crying.
It had, after all, been difficult enough to lose his mother the first time around. To feel the warmth of family again, to have a little sibling that he could dote on. It had been taken away, prematurely.
Did he blame her? Not in entirety. He blamed the pressures of this position, and what he knew - now - had happened during his exams that had escalated the pressures.
In truth, Konoha was to pay. This was a vengeance that Toru kept close.
"I hope she is alright."
That was all he said on the topic, regarding only the little sibling in the moment to avoid dipping further into the well of emotions.
