".. thank you."

It's almost more breath than words, shakey and emotional. Because what else is he supposed to say to that? It's like he was falling off a cliff and Roland is tossing him a rope, that kind of feeling.

And Inigo knows. That he has to get better. That he has to be able to find this motivation to keep going just for himself, instead of having to rely on finding a purpose in someone else. But is it really so bad to wish for something to hold him up when he's still nowhere near reaching that level yet? Something to give him hope to keep going? Because the thought of staring somewhere alone-- that's terrifying. Even if it'd be a peaceful place, even if it'd be the best world ever.

But as long as he's not alone, he knows he can do it. No matter what it is. Even if Naga would be unable to restore Roland's world, Inigo would follow him to it all the same, help him out any way he could.

"I.. I'm not sure you realise just how much that means to me." He's still looking at Roland, but as Jumblie slips down from Inigo's shoulder and into his arms, he holds onto her instinctively without even having to look. "I can keep going, knowing that. I-- I'll try my best." To make sure the pain will all have been worth it. All the struggle.
