The work helps. As the sun rises, Darras gives himself to the tasks of reopening the house--outside, mainly, checking the well, inspecting the roof, getting what glimpse he can of the fences that surround their property. They'll have to do a proper walk-around later. Everything has been well-maintained but there will still be work to do now that they're back, and he is looking forward to that.
He is looking less forward to continuing the thread of conversation with Yseult. On the other hand, he can't stay away from her. There's a pull to her like magnetism, and when he comes back into the cottage and finds her sat on the windowsill, he comes over to stand beside her, slips a hand to press onto her back.
"If we moved Riftwatch to Antiva, we could come down here every month. At least."
