AINO
The Warden's hesitation directed at her was met with an arched brow, and a lopsided smile forgave any doubts the woman might have. Aino was a stranger; both her ability to keep her mouth shut and her allegiances were unknowns.
As it happened, she was neither a tattle-tail nor a religious fanatic.
"I won't care either way," she said with a non-committal shrug. The gods held little importance to her; they could squabble without her. "But if you mean what you say about neutrality, then it might be a good idea to ensure that the portal ain't the only way to comfortably reach the outside world." Not that they needed it; with the greenhouse, and that ningo farm, Halo was more than ready to face isolation again.
Bending her knees to lift a chunk of ice onto the sled, Aino turned back to keep chopping at the frozen sea. Clouds kept rushing across the sky, and every once in a while she turned her nose to the wind and sniffed. Always on guard against a turn in the weather.

Come and conquer, drop your bombs
Cross my borders and kill the calm
Cross my borders and kill the calm
