She need not speak, for he knows her heart even as he asks the questions. He watches, a sentinel of this void they sit within, and at her admittance of not knowing, he is... satisfied, strangely. "And yet you would protect and judge that some deserve life even when circumstances dictate otherwise," he quips, something warm stirring in his dark gaze that might just be amusement.
As for doing his will... perhaps in time the baker will turn his head again. For now, however, her affections towards his starchild are enough.
Around them, suddenly the darkness chimes and stirs, and Amalia will notice small flickers of light burn and dance into existence between them. They are not in some dark room, evidently - no, they sit in the place before life, and within reach are a trio of infant stars.
"You asked if there was anything you might do for Safrin. Whilst I know not of this blight - though I plan to - in the meantime you might construct for her a new shrine. Take these and place them there, that she might watch and nurture them whilst she recovers. Worry not about keeping them anywhere - they will follow you as a duckling might its mother."
Slowly, the Temple emerges from the shadows and bleeds back into view, though the tiny celestials remain, hovering and shooting around Amalia like will-o-wisps. "Walk that line, Amalia Chandrakant," Vi rumbles. "Embrace that mortal folly, and do the work of Life."
Amalia has gained the following:
Infant Celestials | A trio of newborn stars hover around Amalia, until such a time as they can be placed in a new shrine to Safrin.
As recognition for her efforts to protect the magical creatures of Caido, and her devotion to life, the administrators have also awarded Amalia Chandrakant a Legend Title: Shield of Safrin
Congratulations!
