[Barnaby hasn't talked to Amos since the beach, particularly with everything that happened since then, so he's surprised when he sees Amos and his changed appearance now. He knows that at some point he had been dissipated, had seen his shard down in the place of power with Howl's, but none of the grim specifics. He had already been too wracked with his own grief to want to ask about others.
He approaches him now, still studying his appearance. They've both changed, he supposes, even if Barnaby's changes are more of the inward kind.]
Amos. I'm glad to see you've recovered.
[There's less of the frostiness he'd addressed him with before. He has no reason to regard Amos with hostility or resentment now, not when their goals have now become aligned.]
