Feeling guilt claw at the inside of his stomach for each and every time he'd shown up with some lacklustre game for the herald to play, the Lullaby silently vowed the next time he went to Ludo, it would simply be for play. "I shall have to think up a way to thank it."
At another place and time, Remi might have forced himself to try and remain patient and thoughtful, to think through the ramifications of what was being asked of him and what it meant. But with Mort's smile like some tangible bit of light he wanted to bask in, there was nothing for it but for him to nod. "Yes. Gods, I would happily do that for you. For them."
Feeling some long-tied knot inside of himself finally release, the Lullaby relaxed in a way he couldn't have possibly articulated.
Only...
With Mort's hand still in his, Remi leaned closer. Had he not had a handful of encounters with the god and were it not for the stakes, the Lullaby wouldn't have pushed his luck on this, but it was for precisely those reasons that he did. "There is a soul that should have reached you years ago, hidden away by Safrin in the sky." He explains quickly. "Ludo cannot get it down."
