MAEA
Satisfied that he had at least a general understanding of where, Maea's hand dropped and came to rest on her lap. "Yes," she replied, with a nod. "There are some that honor all of them - even one where the Old and New gods are worshiped together - but in many places each God has their own shrine. The Heralds too." And the Voice was almost always venerated alone. "Is that not so for your people?"
The question made her tense. Dropping her gaze to the dark water swirling beneath her feet, Maea chewed on her bottom lip. Teeth worrying at it until it should have been swollen and red. It was such a loaded thing to address - and she didn't entirely know the answer. Not anymore.
"I... honor and respect them," came her tentative reply. Very softly spoken, with quiet pain lacing through the words. "But I doubt that I would be welcome at their shrines. Not anymore."
It didn't even occur to her to speak anything but the truth.
