i've hidden all my fears in a book for only my eyes to see
"Uh...huh..." The alchemist hummed, clearly still surprised by this. He didn't doubt Abasi's tale, more so he found the entire thing so incredulous making it hard to swallow. "Forgive me. I had not met nor known that there were other demigods, save for Ronin and he...well, I suppose he came by it rather strangely. Not born, the way that this Delphia apparently was."
Running a hand consideringly through his curls, Remi let his mind wander back to the world he'd been plucked out of. "Well...I suppose that all depends on who you were. I was a commoner and a shapechanger—the absolute lowest of the low." This the alchemist recounted with a wry and defiant sort of smile. "So life was harder. I had very little and was afforded hardly any privileges or luxuries. Loren on the other hand was a duke. He did not have the easiest time given who his family is, but I expect he would have very different things to say." Rubbing a thumb against his upper arm, the alchemist shrugged. "But in many ways it was hard for all. Men could not be with men, and relationships were only encouraged insofar as they would produce children. We were at war, though I know not with whom, so all tasks were fairly utility-based."
As for his memories? "One of the gods here, Ludo, gave me its mask. I lost it. As punishment it took from me some of my memories."
