Zavien
He was glad to hear that Tal didn't lose his appreciation for the incredible views. Some people forgot that feeling or took it for granted. Zavien tried not to become complacent, always being grateful for the little things. Even the way his body moved or the sun rose each day. He praised the gods for each moment.
Steeling himself to glance down again, he scanned the ground. The purple tinged trees and tainted foliage were set aglow by the red river in its midst. Its bright tendrils of crimson current were a sight to behold, like liquid fire floating through the sky. He could almost reach out and touch it.
They hadn't spotted any sign of Sohalia yet, so Zavien perked up at Tal's passing comment. "Really?! That's great news!" Although he'd had little doubt that the leader lived, it was still a comfort to have the fact confirmed. It also surprised him to hear that the Accepted had spoken personally with a god, especially one of the big three. "Do you have a lot of personal conversations with gods?" he asked curiously. Zavien couldn't imagine what it must feel like to stand in their presence.

Keep your face to the sunshine,
And you cannot see a shadow.
