"I'm sure many would have been upset about that." Mort offered quietly. The mortals were very fond of their things and their spiritual places. The god of death had never really been one for such things; all came to him in the end after all. "I could find Safrin, though I'm sure she would answer a prayer, especially of yours, with regard to the placement of this man. Safrin too acts out of rage and while it takes longer for her ire to cool, she can be reasoned with." Mort shrugged a touch at this. "There are the others. Amalia who Safrin is fond of, Jigano who also shepherds souls for Ludo as well. Even Rae's twins who are here might be of use if Ronin cannot be located."
Smiling at this, Mort simply looked up into the canopy of light overhead and breathed in a long sigh of pure warm air. "Both perhaps. They long for things because of their imperfections. Their imperfections set them apart from us in some ways. The yearn for what they will receive in death." Which was Mort's love. Wholeness. Complete satisfaction and care.
Chuckling a bit at this, Mort's fingers twitched for a moment. He could of course simply give his child the companion, but there was something to be said for working for it. The journey and not the destination.
"I would think sitting very still at night in Ludo's woods, so that they might grow used to your company, would help. You might coax one out by speaking to the spirits in the woods, though it might take a few tries. They are quite clever and might know what you're doing. Milk from an Ursur is sure to be a treat. To capture one though will require a ring of elemental stones; one burned by fire, one submerged in water, one struck by lightning, one pulled from deep within the earth, and one flown high enough that the air is thin. Should you manage to place these around one of the creatures, you might find it subtly bound."
Delphia must
1. have a thread where she speaks to spirits in Ludo's woods
2. Get milk from an Ursur and offer it
3. Get all the required stones (feel free to have help!)
