yet my blood renders me a King
Sah's eyes widened at Morgan's remark. Neron's words had made him suspicious of the possibility, but on some level the Abandoned hadn't expected to be given the opportunity to join Halo's new counsel. Eyes meeting the Warden's, Sah nodded. "I've considered it. I'll be frank when I say that I'm more for the Old Gods then the New, though I'm loyal to none. If given the opportunity however, I'll do anything in my power to protect Halo." A more solemn note came to his voice. "All of Halo." All of it's people, Ascended included. And perhaps those currently outside of the region. Maybe he'd be able to find a way for them to come home peacefully.
Perhaps admitting his bias towards the Old Gods was a poor choice. However given the history of where lies amongst leaders had led to, it seemed appropriate. Being clear on who he was, what he was, would be the only way that he could protect his loved ones. And as Cordelia stepped closer, Sah felt a surge of protectiveness. He found himself angling his shoulders to partially shield her from those around them. Yes, being blatant would be the means in which Sah could protect his family. If the attention was on him, it wouldn't be on them.
