[Fair and valid. Childe nods, partly just in acknowledgment, and partly in response to the question.]

If everything works out--yes, of course. I have a few things to take care of first, but after that I'll be on the first ship home.

[Childe never mentioned the circumstances of his death to anyone, and he certainly isn't going to do it now--but like Lu Bixing, he's glad for the chance to tackle it a second time with foresight, and he doesn't anticipate it ending poorly twice.]

If I'm lucky, I'll make it in time for Teucer's birthday. Maybe I should bring him something from here?
