There was a reason, to Hythlodaeus's knowledge, why that connection - multi-layered, really, as far as he used to know the person responsible - but as the question is not asked, he doesn't know that particular tidbit of information is of interest, so he doesn't volunteer.
At the response, he tilts his head slightly, considering, then inclines it, accepting the answer. Well he knows the dismay of lacking sufficient power to do what he sees needs to be done. And now, in this form, even more so than ever.
"You have found a way to augment your strength to do what needs to be done." The masked face looks up. "I can understand that it can be a price one pays willingly."
G'raha nods his confirmation of Hythlodaeus' assessment, glad to have such easy understanding of what he's done and why he's done it - he isn't sure he has the energy to overly explain his motivations right now, after everything.
The question makes him smile, ducking his head slightly to hide the clear and obvious affection in his expression, though he doubts that does much good to conceal anything.
"Yes." he says simply, easily "A thousand times over, they are worth it."

Hythlodaeus never did.
"This savior. They are worth it?"
