All that came to the highlander's mind at such a critical moment was the first memory of their meeting with Saneksa, when each of them, not yet disfigured by harsh reality, embodied in their image their own bright, naive ideals, dreams, and aspirations. And although since those distant times he himself still had his indestructible sword and breeches, it was perhaps worth trying to remind his companion of those same half-forgotten cherished times "before". (And maybe the outfit would be allowed to be taken back to an empty home wardrobe later.......)
—Well... that's kind of how I see it. 😅 What do you say?..
