Haleth considers herself entirely unlikely to meet with the lady Luthien, but even if she does, she would say nothing of this. What could be said? Things that are yet to be are yet to be, and Canien herself has said that things happened differently in her own world.
Evidently so, as here Haleth has no daughter. Yet here Canien is, and Haleth believes this impossible tale. If she did not, she would have ceased to listen long before.
There is another flicker in her expression as Canien mentions re-learning laughter and playfulness, and Haleth's eyes widen as the wedding ring is revealed. Her brows narrow, and she looks up at Canien's face, then back down to the ring. Is my husband, Canien said, not was. Presumably still alive, and back in the world left behind, the world where things happened differently. Haleth frowns. "And now you are separated from him. Does this concern you? Or do you believe the wind will return you, in its time?"
The wind, or whatever else brought Canien here, for this impossible meeting.
