Tal didn't waste time once he'd captured his two Lava Wyrms. One went with the pair Deimos had captured for the betterment of Halo, but one came straight to the Shrine in the Citadel with him, warm and safe - though not, perhaps, happy about its sudden travels - in a container made of heavy ceramic with a glass lid. It was a cross between a fire pot and a cat carrier, and the Wyrm glowed gently as it peered out the lid at the Citadel Shrine and the crazed construct of brown-and-black glass that Tal set beside it.
The courier added his offering, a small iced rum cake that his sister had helped him bake, spicy and sweet, and then sat back on his heels, composing himself to pray as Boreal sat beside him, prim and proper and suspiciously well-behaved.
She was waiting until she was sure his eyes were closed before she started to stretch her head towards the cake.
"Hey, Frey. It's uh... well, y'know," Tal started, a small grin kicking up the corner of his lips. "It's me again. About the knife." He belatedly paused his praying to pull the blade in question out of its sheath, spotting Boreal just as she'd opened her mouth, poised for a bite.
She stared at him. He stared at her. She sloooowly closed her toothy maw and pulled back until she was sitting primly next to him again. And then she blew a smoke ring in his face. Tal coughed and waved it away, heaving a long-suffering but affectionate sigh as he set the Special Delivery Dagger on the alter with the offerings. "Yeah... well. Anyways, I drew blood on Hotaru an' Sah when we trained," he explained proudly. "An' Noah teleported while we were trainin' an' uh. Kinda. Kicked my ass with his spear." He winced at the memory but his grin returned a moment later as he looked up at the altar. "So can y'help me even the odds for next time? Please?"
Cut to the chase
1. Complete a Training thread using the Special Delivery Dagger (it must draw blood at least once). {Training} What's a little stab between frenemies?
2. Complete a thread collecting glass formed from where lightning has struck sand. Hel to pay
3. Complete a thread capturing a Lava Wyrm. (It must be live when you bring it to Frey!) {RQ} Fire from the stone
4. Complete a thread with a character who is able to teleport. (This can be via magical/demigod ability or through an item!) {Training} dawning (Noah)
