OLIVER
The laughing was shocking and reminded him greatly of his interactions with both Ingrid and Joshua. Was she laughing because she didn't believe him? Or because she thought it was hilarious that he believed this so passionately. Oliver still remained calm and finished up with what he had to say. A brief silence fell between the two of them before Aisha finally spoke.
It seems that she was finally coming to her senses. "Unfortunately, I cannot prove it to you at this time, nor will it be obvious at first." He let out a soft sigh and continued to tap his fingers on the blanket, now clearly getting a tad bit nervous. "Remember the races? Well, those are strongly tied to the gods. Accepted are loved by the Voice and the other ones I mentioned. Ascended are only liked by the Voice. Attuned are liked only by the other gods. And finally Abandoned are not favored by any. Sometimes the gods may answer, but they also hold great resentment." Hopefully she wouldn't laugh this time seeing as this was so important.
"When I first came, I was abandoned. Safrin was the first god to ever respond to me and she granted me my attuned status... if you pray to the gods, they may answer...but also they may not. The gods are very fickle, but I can promise you this: they are more real than you could ever imagine."
