She was probably right about Neron, so the healer just shrugged. It's not like he could claim that he and his twin were close. As she spoke further, about Rae and their indifference (which Loren had seen for himself) and the selfishness of the other old gods the Firebrand smiled grimly. "No they don't thank me, and no they didn't offer a cure. And you're right about my other experiences with the gods. Probably right about everything else too."
He cleared his throat. "But you didn't answer my question." Tilting his head to one side, he regarded her. "What, if anything, would I be giving up?" He took a deep breath, shoulders tensing as he did.
