Cole watched each of those events in the shards play out, and felt that slight capping of his reserves when they vanished. He didn't like the implications that there was someone with more deaths than him though.
There was a lot that he could say, to that and to Macaque's words...the latter causing a conflicting knot in his stomach of warmth and dread. After all, nothing good ever came of the people who liked him getting wrapped up in the big picture of his world, let alone the ones who loved him. He could have pointed out that him disappearing at home didn't necessarily stop him from being here, that he'd already been offered all the information for free for several reasons, and that you just don't tell anything Fae that anything is worth everything to you. Ever...but the saving grace was that, like a certain talking ferret, Max didn't seem above real empathy.

So he didn't say anything at all.
