Alea
would you like to play a game?
Alea tilted her head as Sah described the idea of companionship, but she didn't really understand it. The closest thing she'd ever experienced was her bond with Ludo -- the puppet, at least, if not the god. As one would imagine, that tended to be rather one-sided, even if Alea's imagination provided the god-puppet's responses. But Alea did look down at Lilly and come up with a verdict: "It sounds nice, to have a companion."
One thing decided Alea in favor of hunting: her stomach growled. She was usually a little hungry, but the pangs were becoming acute enough to require action. So she reached up and settled her Ludo puppet firmly in her hair. "All right. Let's go hunting. Where should we start?"
