After everything that had happened recently, Saiden felt the need to express his gratitude. Which was why he was by the shrine at the docks, a small bag of marbles clutched in one hand and a piece of chalk in the other. Kneeling down, he placed both gifts at the foot of the statue. Then he rubbed the statue's arm for good luck.
That done, he bowed his head. "Ludo. Please accept my offering and my thanks for safe passage through these trying times." Pausing, he glanced up towards the horizon. "Despite our best efforts, I am sure there were many souls for you to guide into the next realm." Though his voice was soft, it was indeed suffused with all the gratitude he could muster.
