"I met a Fae here," Kel admitted quietly, tilting his jaw towards the distant beach without taking his eyes off the Ascended man. "Down on the coast." Silken black hair and shimmering butterfly wings and all, petite and lovely in her own otherworldly way. She had been kind enough to answer many of his questions, but left out so many details that he was only slightly less confused afterwards.
But if the other man had others to turn to, so be it. Hard as it was to imagine, given his bullying ways.
Each crack of inhuman fingers sent a little jolt of anxiety through Kel, the noise so out of place in the quiet rumbling of the geyser field. At least the stranger seemed to be easing back again for the moment, willing to talk - however half-heartedly - and giving the hunter more to think on. "Are they... are the gods still at war?" A cautious question, and one that prickled along the hunter's spine. The last thing he wanted was to find himself trapped in a world in the midst of some kind of divine war.
It didn't seem like it would go well for the mortals caught in the middle.
