gods request, gods receive

GIDEON

Be careful my darling
Be careful of what it takes

Gideon stepped into the cave, his feet making a crunch on the ground as they crushed fractions of crystals that had been untouched for years. Glancing down to make sure he hadn't broken anything of value and confirming he hadn't, he continued to pick his way through carefully. Remi might have had cat eyes, but he didn't, so he used his hands readily on the walls and ground before him to feel his way along.

"I see...and which two Demi Gods did you replicate the powers of?" He asked, glancing back; Remi really was terrifyingly powerful, when one spent any time considering it.

Stopping before what felt like a decent sized and smooth crystal in the wall, Gideon dug around in his bag for the tools he'd brought for the task. "No, not really. I just offered myself. My willingness to serve, to do anything right now in the face of the Ascended scourge. All I want to do is assist, however the Gods will have me." Finding a hammer and a chisel, he squinted at the crystals edge and began to try and chip at it. "I felt like I had lost my direction, after the spirits raged in the Temple. I wanted a God to set me back on the right path."

What I've seen so far
The good ones always seems to break
