amun
As the snake began to render its judgment, Amun narrowed his eyes. He rubbed his palms together as it spoke, declaring him clever and that's all. Smiling, he shrugged. "Better than nothing."
It went on and on (and on). As it spoke, he stretched his legs out in front of him. "What would be the point of running? It wouldn't have changed anything, since I doubt the hedge would've let me pass and even if it had, it's not like you can run poison." As the serpent chastised the potter for putting Zhanshi in danger, the Ascended arched an eyebrow. "He would have. But he would've probably died anyway. Like you said, prey is too scarce here."
His nostrils flared as it continued. Leaning towards it, he rest his palms flat on the ground. "We can cry and I do have a lover. But like I said, I left my affairs in order. There's no point in raging against the heavens or leaving a message that will never be found." Taking a deep breath, he added, "Besides, death is not the end, as much as we try to prevent it. It's just the next journey and I'm happy with the life I lived here so far." Shifting his weight, he stood up, dusting off his pants and the back of his shirt as he did.
