Safrin
Soothingly, Safrin lets her daughter feel her feelings without judgement. There are times that the goddess herself feels like curling up into a little ball, and she'd not begrudge her child for feeling the way she did. "You do matter to him, my love." Safrin interjects softly. "Perhaps one day when you are in love with someone, you'll understand. But it does not forgive this choice he's made. It's the duty of parents to sacrifice for their children. He chose you Kamaria, and that matters." A hard truth to be sure, and even if it was one Sunjata had thrown to the wind, Safrin would not let her daughter walk away from this dream without knowing that at one time, if not now, Sunjata had chosen her.
Shifting to wrap her arms around Kamaria's hunched body, Safrin draws one knee up toward her chest so that she might rest her own chin on it. "Because I trust him more than any other human alive right now. Because he has told me he would look after you like one of his own, and I have seen how fiercely he protects those he loves. In that, he has never once faltered. He is not quite a star the way you are, but he is a star nonetheless."
