Seren
The remark was well needed, indeed. It had Seren look up from the snow-sculpture and grant Deimos her full attention. Pale eyes seemed to take him in all over again, as if realizing things that had been overlooked before. The expressive mouth turned rueful, her smile a touch lopsided, and in the end Seren nodded.
"You are right," she admitted, apparently finding nothing to argue against. "You know him best. Hm... perhaps I will wait with gifts until after I've spoken to him myself. I'm sure something suitable can be found after that." Her gratitude would not likely expire soon, and the bravery and kindness of her rescuer could be rewarded at any time. There was no need to rush.
"Thank you, for being so kind to me," she added, speaking directly to Deimos. "You are very patient to answer questions like this. I can't say how much I appreciate it." In no way did the general of a region have to play in the snow with an outlander. It was not part of his job description, and it would have been so easy to find reasons for moving on. But here they were, chatting along like old friends, and it warmed her heart to realize it.
Threatening now to ruin the good mood, a slightly more serious expression grew on her face. "Deimos, another person I met here said that Halo would strive to be neutral in the upvoming conflict of the gods. Do you agree with that?" Was it true and an official stance of the government, or merely the opinions of a single individual?
