[There was a painful twist in her heart as it felt like it was being tugged to two different directions. The part of that longed to settle down with Gale, and the other part of her with personal quest she must see through.]
I would love to.
Visit, I mean. I swore to you that I would see you safely home and I meant it. Maybe you could show me around before I have to return to my search. It would be selfish of me to expect anyone to follow me all over Faerûn after our present venture. I'm sure you'll have plenty of lost time to catch up on once we remove that orb in your chest.
Well, truth be told, should such a thing be achieved, I don't have any immediately pressing business... there is little of my old life left, I'm afraid.
[Checking in with his mother, of course, having kept his distance from her all this time, but... after that, then what? He would have to start over. He was no longer the Chosen of Mystra, charged to carry out her deeds, and though his beloved tower awaited him, he'd seen rather enough of it having been sequestered within it for an entire year.]
Your quest may prove difficult on your own, after all this time with company. Perhaps you could find use for a wizard?
Same can be said about myself, but I intentionally burnt the bridges to my old life. I will not return to living in the dark. There's nothing left for me in the Underdark. Well... almost.
[Which leads into her personal quest. Her last reason to ever return. Without even knowing what it was, Gale was readily offering up his services to help her and it brought a warm smile to her face.]
Of course I would love to have you along with me. Your absence would leave a wizard sized hole in my life. But are you sure? Dropping everything for me without even knowing what you're signing yourself up for? Not that its some huge secret! With all the possible world ending dilemmas, my problem seems to be the least urgent.

[A wizard sized hole. Something about that makes him smile to himself, kindling a warm fondness within his chest.]
Is it too much to say that I trust your judgement? In truth, I have my own search for a new path to consider... your influence has been a positive one so far. Whether you realize it or not, I feel that your companionship has helped me to make decisions that the Gale of several months back never would have dreamed of. Perhaps that trend will continue if I travel with you a bit longer.
