through the eyes of man

Now it was Gideon's turn to look puzzled, as the girl claimed that Safrin was not only her Goddess, but her mother. As he looked her over though, the love he felt from Safrin did match that of a maternal affection...the very concept seemed bizarre, but he sensed she was being genuine. Unable to stop his curiosity, he asked: "And who is your father?"

Did Safrin even need a man to choose to have a child? He had no idea.

While it was nice to see her interested in history, that she'd apparently been leaning over the gate to read headstones was an offense he'd yell at anyone else for. With a daughter of Safrin, though...Gideon took a breath to calm himself and nodded, though he did gesture for her to follow him away from the wall as he spoke.

"Well..." He began to walk up the path, back upwards on the stairs towards the Temple. "Seventy years ago...that would have been an altercation on our shores with another region. I'd have to look up exactly which - Stormbreak has had many enemies over the years, those that would toss loyalty to the Gods away for temptations. Our history is long and complex, but the general thread is this: We defend the will of the Gods, others oppose it."
