yet my blood renders me a King
"That'd be preferable, thanks." Sah chuckled slightly, eyes still scanning the ice and snow. As long as Morgan made efforts to include him when she had the chance, he'd be content. He was an Outlander yes, but Halo and its people were all he had now. He wanted them safe, happy, and free of fear.
Sah was further surprised to hear Morgan's view of the Voice. Even more so to hear that it aligned with his own. "Gods are the same in every world it seems." He mused as he continued to guard Halo in the only way he could at the moment. "They act based on their own plans and needs. They ask for loyalty and then reward, punish, and manipulate as needed to keep it. They act on a different moral ground then us mortals, one that we either can't comprehend or don't realize until it's too late." Even Mune had her faults. She was a Goddess after all. Still Sah had never once regretted giving his loyalty and life to her. Still didn't.
The Outlander sighed after a moment, "I've met the Voice. She offered to Ascend me. Told me that if I ever wished for it, I'd just need to go to her shrine and ask. I've never returned." Sah glanced at Morgan, "I don't wish to Ascent or Attune. For the very reasons you've pointed out."
It probably sounded strange given how Sah had stated his allegiance to the Old Gods. But what so many seemed to struggle to comprehend was that the Outlander's loyalty was to people who just so happened to be followers of the Old Gods. That was it. Sah had chosen to side with Deimos, Cordelia, Noah, and Halo. Not with Safrin, Ludo. Frey, or any of the rest.
