Pytheas doesn't talk much, he doesn't have anyone or anything to talk to, and everything he touches turns to dust so he doesn't understand the point.

It's business as usual, touch one wrong thing, and it falls to pieces. The people always drive him away, at some point, he just gave up trying to make something of his life.

He's a monster, so why is this gentle being staring at him, as if he didn't just destroy her home? This special being, who's immune to his touch, already has his heart.
