"The Old Gods, but not one in particular among them. I just started here because... well, because I'm here at the moment. Not very special, I guess."
And ohhh, it doesn't matter what tone Amun used to ask, because the important thing was he had asked. And Quanil liked answering questions, especially questions about what they were (currently) interested in. "I don't know, actually! But it's possible. Carvings that seem newer than the building itself could indicate that it was something else first and then became a shrine later, which would also be interesting, though perhaps not relevant. Though it might be, actually." They stopped to think for just a second, barely a tick of a watch, before continuing, "But right now it's all still just basic information gathering. This is the first shrine building I've inspected after all, and I want to take a look at the shrine itself, too, naturally, but I'll take notes for now and analyze them later. I want to look for similarities amongst the shrines and buildings, too. There's really a lot to learn!"
And then they remembered why Amun was here, and cleared their throat. "And it... helps keep my mind busy. I-I mean, it's easy for my mind to be busy, but it keeps it off of having lost a friend."
A death hadn't weighed this heavily on them since their grandparents had passed. They'd never blown any of them off, either, but they'd hardly known most other people. Miss Maea had been nice and helpful and she'd been a good person. They laid a hand on the wall of the building. "I'm sure Ludo was very careful and nice to her soul. If, uh... that's how soul collection works." They could probably ask the provost about that, actually, but... question for another time. Like so many.
