The search for the materials had the feel of an adventure about it, one that Jigano found himself eager to pursue after the joys of Fiat Lux had energized him and given him fresh hope and purpose. His jaw gaped in a vulpine grin as Ludo freed Isuma, who tumbled forward in surprise when the trapping cloth turned to smoke. She squeaked as she landed, but immediately bounced up again to dance beneath the fluttering rags, peeping happily at her playmate.
Jigano settled his chin back on his paws, a contented warmth to his thoughts as he watched her. Thank you, Ludo, he said softly to the god. For coming today. For letting us know you're alright. And... for giving me a chance to find new purpose, again. Isuma and I will stay and play with you until your other duties call you away, and then we will see what we can do about those lantern items. His tail thumped again and he closed his eyes, content to let the soul guide get their fill of teasing silken ears and fluffy white fur until their interlude was over.
