[Kaguya]

Listened to everything she had to say and nodded, he did remember a time where his father started closing himself off, he was still very young at the time no older than nine or ten years old, he wasn't trained enough to be elder but there he was thrust into such a position.

He knew he wasn't ready and even how he still lived with the fear that he wasn't ready or good enough top be the head of the tribe, he wanted to ask for help as he was growing but he knew it would be looked upon as a weakness and would have the other tribes swarming his own like vultures ready for the kill, it was one of the reason's he raised Nobuo as he did to understand joy but responsibility, but he knew he was getting old and he now had to prepare Nobuo for taking over the tribe and that was one of the many reason's he protected his son

hearing the next question made him quirk a brow as he wondered where her concern came from all of a sudden when it came to her son's health considering she talked with such distane for him nor a few minutes before hand “Yes, the illness can be carried within the spirit... it is a unique illness to this tribe... luckily he doesn't have it and if he does it is dormant” his words showed relief as he spoke on the matter “Your eldest s are twins so is it your son or daughter that will be taking over your tribe when you pass on to the spirits?” he was genuinely curios it wasn't often that elders had pleasant chats with one another so he was enjoying the fact that he could
