Kel listened eagerly, glad to take his thoughts off his own troubles for the moment to hear about the strange deities, almost able to believe they were something from a story rather than an intrinsic part of his life now. The names were strange, almost alien things, and their domains so broad it was hard to wrap his mind around them.
Frey's domain in particular left Kel ducking his head and looking away awkwardly, equally reticent about discussing such a god in more detail with someone he had just met. Luckily Jaio's words caught him by surprise and he looked back at her sharply as some of the things she had said earlier clicked into place. "Wait... you've met a god? S..safrin?" He tasted the name on his tongue, finding it sweet in spite of its strangeness. "How... how often do they show themselves to people - mortal people, I mean?"
He shrugged noncommittally at her suggestion to go to the 'Hollowed' Grounds, considering what else she'd told him about bad, trapped goddesses there. It didn't sound like a very good place to be if the other gods decided to put their bubble back up.
