Kaisel
Committing his tasks to memory and wading through the snippets of divine wisdom Dygra had left him with, Kaisel is unnaturally subdued in the wake of her departure. If he'd hoped this would provide him some measure of certainty, whether a yes or a no towards revisiting Dygra, it has only left him with a number of additional questions, and he finds himself with no clearer path as to which god he means to align with.
Charlie's exuberance pulls him from his internal quiet with all the skill of a dog leaping up to distract from the seriousness of life with a bid for pets and play. He can't fully answer her, not with all his air pushed out from the vice of her grip like he's no better than a tube of toothpaste in the hands of a toddler, but he makes a show of wheezing agreement and hugging her back, albeit with less intent to crush.
Hauling in air the moment she steps back enough to allow it, it's soon lost again to some chuckles, overtaken by her passion. "Thanks Charlie," he says with a shy but undeniable pride to her praise, smile lopsided when it settles into place. "I'm so glad you came with me!" he chirps brightly, entirely grateful for the reassurances of her experience and presence in an otherwise very daunting room with a powerful being. "I'm glad you convinced me to meet her. She's definitely given me a lot to consider." Aside from his quest, the warm thoughts she'd offered up will linger.
Easy as it is to get swept away in the tide of Charlie, especially this one where it's in service of her goddess, he resists letting it pull him under entirely. The easy spark of her joy and enthusiasm aren't without their effects, and his laugh fills the spaces where she breathes, arm looping back around her shoulders to tug her back to his side the moment he's released from her full clutches. "Oh, I'm definitely going to enlist your help," he reassures with a squish against her shoulder and a meaningful glance sent her way. "Let me check in with Flora first. I'm not sure when we're planning to leave the Grounds, and I don't want her waiting." Not to mention most of his tasks have to do with blood or fighting, so he'll need to consider his approach to them. "You'll be the first one I come to, once I know."

Wanted me to fail out of spite, I didn't
All bark but they don't bite, they timid
All bark but they don't bite, they timid
Wearing a watery blue, faded and stretched-out sparkling hair tie on his left wrist
