She Doesn't Ask You to Fix It
Nimue has already traded tales of loss with plenty of Heroes who came asking. This is different. Brooding doesn't need to be asked anything, she can see it sitting on you the way weather sits on a hill, present, unhurried, not going anywhere soon, and she doesn't reach for it the way she reaches for grief someone's ready to hand over.
"You don't have to talk. I'll just be here a while, if that helps."
If you sit with her in silence: Neither of you says much for the better part of an hour, and somehow it's exactly enough. When you finally rise to leave, she presses something small into your hand without comment. Gain one Buddy Ring at no cost.
If you help her with the shrine work instead: You spend the hour hauling stone for the House of Sanctuary's construction rather than sitting still, and she doesn't push you to talk either way. Add 20 (rc) to your Total Donated (rc), credited as labor.
