Lyl has discovered that having feelings for someone, and they for you, that the mutual attraction is not the same as love. She can accept this, because it is easy to believe that someone could be attracted, and difficult to imagine someone loving her, at this juncture in her confidence. There was a time, when she could not even imagine as much as mutual attraction.
Her strength of character makes it easy for her to care, and her habit of blaming herself for wrong makes it hard to accept affection. She is genuinely shocked when another shows empathy, let alone closeness, which is why it means so much to her, and gives her such courage. Her friendship with Ginf makes even the horrors of a strange people who might have made the worst blight on the face of the world and who can wield light as a weapon seem only mere people to be confronted.
Lyl, driven by love for her brother and a responsibility to uphold how highly Ginf holds her, steps into the shadows of the Tongues.
