Scattering sparks of thought energy
Deliver me and carry me away
Abasi frowned at Amalia's question, the concept of it against the entire philosophy of his people's views on the dead. "Only souls which find their bodies can live forever. In the tombs they have their worldly good and possessions, their life's story on the walls...it is the only place most of us wish to be when we are dead, so that we may live with our bodies, memories and family as long as we can."
At least Amalia seemed to understand what a painful revelation it had been for him that his soul would not find rest in Egypt. "...I am glad to know what will happen, at least. That I am not holding onto false hope. I..have been wondering if I spoke to Ludo, I could ask if something could be arranged, for the souls of the dead...that perhaps something of the appearance, the wording of the souls journey could be preserved from their world, if they wished it. I could leave instructions with the body." He shrugged, not having met Ludo and not knowing how amenable it was to such things.
He sipped at his tea. "I..am curious. What is it you and other devoted followers of the Old Gods intend to do about the Ascended? In my world it would not have been unusual for a war to begin or a...execution to take place, yet Jigano seemed rather shocked and upset by the idea." Abasi really thought he was a bit soft. "I am not suggesting this should be done. I am just confused why everyone seems to be angry, yet does nothing."
