Though it is only a few feet, Diarmuid feels like there are millions of miles between them. Or, perhaps, it would be more accurate to say thousands of years and one important stay in a horrible tower. They have both changed so much since they last knew each other that he isn't sure anymore how to react. She seems upset to see him as he is now, but he has worked so hard to get back here...
...and adding all this news on top is not helping. Oscar had died, probably at the same battle as his sons, but Selbsercach and Druime lived to have normal lives and families...
Diarmuid has so many more questions, but it is obvious she is in pain. He'd asked her not to run, but now...maybe space is for the best. To give them both time to calm and to process.
"Please...be careful. This place is dangerous even when it doesn't look it. I will find you so we can talk more later..." Might she try to avoid him? Diarmuid is sure she will from the look on her face, but if she doesn't remember now, she will remember later. He doesn't give up and he's not going to give up on understanding this.
He orders Mac an Chuill to sit and stay just in case the hound tries to follow her and then motions toward the exit of the floor, "Go...and be as well as you can be in this place. I am in room 2-16 if you need to find me."
