It felt weird but good to be seeking out Frey's shrines again. He didn't dare bother Mort too often, and Ludo had given him a bad case of anxiety over the years, especially when it came to knives. Frey, though... Frey was an old friend, and Tal was more relieved than he'd realized to be back on good terms with the god of sex and nature once more.
Though as intense as his last prayer experience had been, he was ready for the comforting familiarity of the god's more nature-based side this time!
And given what he was asking for, it just felt right to call upon nature.
The courier came alone for once; Boreal remained a shadow at Alys's side, watching over the seer for her cub until Sascha was back with them once more. So it was just Tal, who should have been comfortable in a short-sleeved shirt and his Frostbite Cuff as he laid out his offerings on the Rainbow Road's altar. Instead the courier shivered, pale beneath his tanned skin and with shadows lingering beneath his eyes. The morning light filtered through the Flowerbirth clouds and chased occasional flashes over the silvery sides of the carafe of coffee he had brewed up on a little brazier for both of them. Steam rose from it, mingling with that of the waters around the shrine as he set out cream, sugar, and honey to accompany it; little nods to the other side of Frey he had gotten to know and appreciate of late.
"Frey... well, or Rae?" Because it didn't hurt to aim high, right? "...If you're listenin', I could really use your help. I was hopin' y'might be willin' t'help me make another... another dagger? Like my other one, but one that'll cut with air magic instead this time." He poured a mug for the god and a second for himself, hands shaking so that a few drops spilled on the altar. The woman's face lingered in his thoughts, her throat, cut by the Dagger poisoned by Ludo's blessing at his request. Maybe if it hadn't been poisoned... "I know it's not its fault." All of that lay entirely on the hand that had wielded the weapon, after all. "But I... I just want a different choice, please. T'defend me an' my friends while I... I work through things." And if that choice could do extra damage to the Void that had put him in the position to make that mistake? All the better.
