Noah
if there's a reason I'm still alive
when so many have died
when so many have died
With Cordelia's blessing, Noah was bringing his twins to the shrine for the first time. They were wrapped in the warmest of fabrics and hides and leathers, tucked carefully beneath each of the Sentinel's arms. His Sentinel's Coat protected them from the elements as he moved from their home to the shrine, his voice low and cooing to the sleeping twins as they traveled. Noah's companions came, too, offering extra eyes as well as extra warmth should it be needed.
When they arrived at the shrine, Noah settled right up close. The flickering candlelight and roaring fire warmed the area and bathed the shrine in harmony of dancing shadows and lights. He sat himself in such a way that he could shift his son down to rest in the crooks and bends of his legs, while he held his daughter still close to his chest. With his free hand, Noah lowered the offering he had brought for his time of prayer and god-seeking. He set down a set of earrings made from the rubies he hadn't used to craft the bracelet, for Safrin. Next to it he sat a luxere tine with a braided dreamcatcher hanging from it, for Vi.
Noah bowed his head, and prayed above to the deity of life and his herald of stars, holding his children closely.

then I'm willing to
wait for it
