[well she's not going to be an edgelord about it, oh, riding a dragon into battle isn't cool.]

It's more her I'm interested in, mind. Though I worry for this war you're fighting, if one side having wyverns to fly on isn't dispositive.

[midway]

Nowadays every army has a few wyvern riders, so don't worry too much.

[ Squeezes the wolf toy. ]

So how'd you escape?

[sacredpath]

I was found by a group of Sharrans. They saved me and took me in.

[midway]

[ Ah ]

So you're an orphan?

[sacredpath]

Not all that many people join holy orders when they have somewhere to go.

[...]

The truth is, I don't know why I was left in the woods that day, so I suppose it is possible I have a parent somewhere who simply abandoned me to the wolves. But I may as well be.

[midway]

I see. I'm sorry to hear it.

[ :( ]

The Sharrans then... They're your family?

[sacredpath]

Yes, very much so. I'm fortunate to have them.

[midway]

I'm sure they'd say much the same.

[ Getting up from where he was crouched by the presents to continue snooping around the tree. ]

So because of that you're part of the "holy order"? Is that a religious group?

[sacredpath]

[she will follow... with her little wyvern...]

The Sharrans are, yes. Though it's perhaps a little different than many orders. Most of us train to be warriors of some sort.

[midway]

Oh yeah? What are you battling against?

[sacredpath]

Corrupt rulers who ask too many nosy questions.

[a smile.]

No, but primarily Selûnites. Selûne is a jealous goddess. She hopes to wipe out my goddess, take over her domain for herself.

[ hey...

but oh, interesting ]

I'd never heard of deities that interacted with the followers before I came here...

To be honest, they remind me a lot of the kings and rulers back home.
