"It's possible," Jigano agreed with a smile at the eager question. "Deimos did, if you've met the General. He is close with the Amalia, the Shield of Safrin, and has helped her with many tasks for that goddess. I haven't heard the story in detail, but my guess is that she was the one to grant him the abilities of the Attuned." Ludo had been absent for a time, and he couldn't see Deimos praying to Frey, so Safrin certainly seemed the most likely bet.
He watched with concern as Oliver seemed to wilt, however, and he tilted his head curiously at the phrasing the young man used. "All of the gods can be kind, in their way... and all of them can be cruel," he said quietly. "Amalia and Deimos have been blessed by Safrin, while I have been cursed by her. However, I'm on good terms with Ludo... but Remi has been cursed by it. Frey seems to have great love for Phoebe, but has laid minor curses on others. They can be confusing and capricious; angry with you one day, forgiving the next. I suppose it depends on what you've done, really. Can you tell me why you think they won't forgive you? If not, that's alright, I can tell you more about Safrin and Frey instead," he said gently, but waited to hear what Oliver had to say before he went further. Depending on what the young man had done it might influence which god Jigano would suggest, but either way he'd do his best to help.
