Seren
Seren stilled where she sat, as the conversation turned towards darker and more serious topics. Her expression remained calm, but there was no hiding the subtle pain his answers caused her. The idea of giving up on anyone, for whatever reason, was abhorrent to her. That the Ascended were beyond saving was so very hard to accept...
... and the notion of not even trying to find a place for those once Abandoned filled her with a quiet, simmering anger. Horror and disgust twisted her mouth into a deep frown, and Seren actually shrank back from Gideon.
"... you murder children. For no reason." Quiet and intense, the demi-goddess refused to look at the Priest. There was no question in her words, only cold judgement. "... and would you say that this too is the will of the gods? Or the will of men?"
The very idea that her mother would condone such a practice... it made her ears ring, and set the stomach to roiling, more nauseating than any storm-wrecked sea voyage.
