Alys
And it's like snow at the beach
It was always fascinating, feeling the emotions of others - particularly when they seemed to find some similarity between themselves and the seer. As she spoke, she kept her face neutral, but she felt everything as Damien did: that faint thread of recognition, that glimmer of defiance in the face of the gods, that desire to take for oneself rather than relying on deities to bestow one's fortune. It made her esteem of the man rise, intrigued by his determination to take care of himself.
"I can't speak for all of them," Alys admitted after Damien spoke. "But Frey was almost... human-feeling. Mort was the kindest of those I've met; he genuinely cares for people, especially, it seems, when someone has loved and lost. And Ludo is a trickster," she added with a smile. "It showed up dressed as Frey. I'm not sure how Frey feels about Ludo masquerading as them, but hey, that's between them."
Whatever Damien's reasons for asking, Alys hoped that her story had helped him in some way. In the meantime, though, his attention shifted back to the fox fur, and the seer glanced down as well. "Sure," she said, accepting the offered help by handing over the garment. "Could you hold here and here?" Gesturing to the places she meant, she picked up her tools, ready to go to work, dutifully ignoring the wistfulness that lay beneath the offer of assistance.
"When would you like your reading?" she asked as she worked. "I can do it today, if you'd like; I always have a deck with me to work with. Or we can wait, if you'd prefer more privacy."
