Thorin moved his hand closer to Caliste's face, caressing it.
Caliste wasn't sure how to respond to the old Thorin; he seemed pretty messed up. He could no longer think straight, his thoughts getting all jumbled. In fact, that was especially clear when he had tried to talk earlier.
"I'm sorry, but I'm not the one you think I am," Caliste said. "I'm not the traitor from the past."
"Traitor?" Thorin shook his head. "Since when were you ever a traitor? He was the one who tried to save everyone… we're the ones who became traitors."
Caliste's eyes widened as the words came out of Thorin's mouth. He realized that this was a great opportunity to get some information about the past and everything that had happened afterward. Caliste knew that Thorin was old and his memory wasn't the best, but this was the best source of information he had for the moment.
