yet my blood renders me a King
Sah was incredibly thankful that Cordelia was beside him. The woman's support was greatly appreciated by the Outlander. Falling silent as Seren and then Deimos spoke, Sah ran a frustrated hand through his hair. "Two people can't overturn a region alone. But we can lay the groundwork as we take the time to come up with something feasible." He paused, brows furrowed as he addressed Seren. "And what do you mean they have nowhere to go? The Greatwood accepted Hotaru right? Why wouldn't they take Noah and Deimos if it was requested? Is there something I'm missing?" They weren't banned from entering, where they?
As for the questions Deimos brought up, Sah managed a small grin. At least he could give them some manner of good news. "I managed to persuade her against it. I brought up how immediately turning to the Voice after having a group of Ascended help her take back her position would practically be declaring Halo as for the Voice. And that that would render any attempt at neutrality void. But she only agreed when Neron voiced his support for my argument. Which was odd in itself." The Outlander really wasn't sure what to make of Neron. He had a horrible reputation in Halo but at the meeting he'd seemed logical enough.
Shaking his head, Sah brought up one last thing. "And Neron...he practically suggested to Morgan that I and my sister take counsel positions. If I do, I'll have even more room to lay groundwork for turning Halo to the Old Gods." This entire situation felt bizarre. Here he was debating how to turn Halo for gods that he himself had no loyalty to. But in war those who were neutral often became the enemies of all. Halo had to choose a side to survive. And given the large population of Attuned, and the region's history, the Old Gods were the logical choice.
