[Varian is a boy of science. Of logic. Of only believing the things he sees with his own eyes, even when he lives in a world full to the brim with magic and things that could never easily be explained. Death...is a concept that he's never found himself fearful of, persay, but...there's a very sobering reality here he's having to face now that he's borne witness to it in such a direct way.
Even though he's not sure what exactly he believes in, if anything, for his sanity he has to hope they're okay...wherever they've ended up.
There's another pause, this one a bit more considerable than the last as Varian takes a moment to just breathe.]
It...it w-was just an accident, so...it won't happen again...
[He already knows that's a lie, and it's foolish to assume for sure it won't. But if he doesn't tell himself something, how will he continue on?]
