[While Aster had feared the worst, what actually occurred wasn't much better. Niflheim? How did it go from attacking Ratatosk to joining up with him? It doesn't take a genius to figure some things were left out. 'A lot of other things' indeed.
In a bizarre way, Aster can believe Richter took it upon himself to help prevent demons. He had always been a kind person and helping to protect the world seemed up his ally, though that in particular is the last place he ever expected him to be or wanted him to be. It was too dangerous.
He can tell his best friend had been through a lot, and Aster was there for none of it. Would be there for none of it.]

[That almost hurts to say. You. Because Aster knows if they leave this place, he won't be going along.]
-will you continue to watch over him, even after the demons are dealt with? He gets grumpy when he's left alone for too long.
[Aster's voice is somber by now, even though it's obvious he's trying pretty hard to sound happier. It's just how he deals with things though it has none of the light, joking tone he tried to force earlier. The information so far has been troubling at best and draining at worst, but he has courage. He can keep going.
He has to know if anything went right during all this.]
