OLIVER
The more Joshua explained, the more interested Oliver became. Unfortunately, it seemed this man wasn't from the same place as him seeing as a couple of the words he didn't recognize at all. No matter, he was still interested in learning more. Any opportunity to learn about a new location would be well accepted by Oliver. Part of him still wondered if there was a connection between each of the places they came from or if it truly was completely random.
With a tilt of his head, Oliver decided to push on a bit and ask some questions of his own. "What's a UFO? Or a Cryptid? I recognize all of the other stuff. Reporters are super cool." They do get a shit ton of information wrong, but Oliver also saw it as necessary. How else would he learn about the news from other places quickly? "I know some people back where I came from who did similar things. There were people who specialized in the paranormal, though, I never had any problems so we had no reason to request for any help." It was a major surprise that certain things like that had carried over to this world.
Oh boy. Seems that someone has told Joshua about the Ascended. Most likely an Ascended, seeing as he doesn't know about any of the other gods. "Well, yes, she does rule over the Ascended and grants them special abilities, but there are far more gods than that." Should he mention the major ones? Or just the ones Joshua is likely to interact with. "There are heralds of three major gods. The major gods are Vi, Rae, and Mort." Truth be told, Oliver still wasn't entirely sure what Rae did....oops? "Then the heralds are Frey, Safrin, and Ludo. Frey is our god of sex and reproduction... and marriage. Honestly, anything like that, they'll represent. Ludo helps souls to reach Mort." And then the grand finale, of course, his favorite god.
"Safrin is- fantastic. She is our stars, she breathes life into our world. She is simply incredible. If you want to meet a god, I would recommend her, but be wary. She doesn't want you to waste her time with small, petty little problems... and also, I'd warn you that Frey is extremely short. Ludo may be the most willing to answer questions, but it is also very playful."
