"Azeal is indeed the one that had appeared, however if it was from the sky or from the ground remains a mystery. However it is nice that you have also shown up, we don't have to explain this situation when we got back." She spoke bowing her head in the deities direction. She then turned to Azeal as he asked is she did not mind company on their search. With a smile she replied. "Of course, I decided to willingly find her on my own time. I don't mind if you tag along, it would make for more pleasant company and a less lonely trip as we search for her." Azeal smiled, “Thank you, I am very curious about Bashemath and hope she can explain some things to me.” However when Azeal mentioned Xyr being pleasant her smile disappeared and was replaced with a frown. Azeal watched as she went into a full blown tirade about Xyr and all he anguish he caused, her voice full of anger as she went on for several moments before she covered her mouth with her free hand, surprised that she raised her voice in such a way.
The flowers growing near Edna seemed to realize her distress and wrapped themselves around her. Just as suddenly as she was mad, her smile returned. "Oh dear...Apologies for raising my voice like that. Xyr is not a nice topic for me. I understand why he does this, I just dislike what he does. Again, sorry for my sudden burst of anger. I am normally peaceful and friendly." She apologized and bowed her head low. Azeal raised an eyebrow at the sudden switch in personalities then waved a hand dismissively, “ No need to apologize. I was being sarcastic when I said he sounded like a pleasant fellow but I understand how such a being would be quite an irritant.” Azeal said.
As they were speaking the Hanan which had been part of their company began to trill. It was musical and familiar, very familiar. Azeal snapped his head to the creature as it sang what he recognized as Abaranne's lullaby. He watched as the creature wiped the black tear stains and draw a symbol for the sun on it’s head. The meaning was not lost on Azeal who stared blankly at the creature for a moment before slowly smiling, “You’re full of surprises my friend.” He said as he reached over and pet the creature in a gesture of thanks, “Thank you friend.” He said to the Hanan.
"Hah, I am lucky my master is a tolerant one, I was sent here specifically by Hazarmaveth to greet you, Azeal, and offer you passage to Raelenea should you ever choose to go," Renwick said with a chuckle pointing upwards beyond the sky at a mass set aloft amidst the Astral Sea. "Given your connection to the Great Essences, I suppose it would not be hard to find a way, but in case you can't, then take this as a call for passage." With this he reached into his cloak and pulled out an ornate black bell with a blue glow within, signed with some symbol signifying that it was less a toy and instead something far more important. Renwick handed it to Azeal who took it in his hand, "Ring this should you find yourself otherwise incapable to make the trip, as for me, I am behind on my duties," he said, taking another bow to everyone. Azeal nodded, “Thank you Renwick, for all the help you have given me I am extremely grateful.” "It was nice to meet an old face, needless to say it is rare, I hope you find what you are looking for, and luck in your quest, friend." With this he once again took wing and flew out away from the group.
Azeal looked over the bell a bit more before placing it on his belt. Scire's face brightened as he dug through a multitude of pockets for the something. Out came sacrificial daggers, an egg shaped object with a metal ring in it, a handful of fountain pens, and several copies of a book with ancient lore. The books were deposited onto the ground but fell into neat little piles. Curious Azeal picked one up and looked it over, “Hmm, lore books. Very useful in just about every situation.” Azeal said as he respectfully placed the book back. Scire finally produced a metal keyring with strange makes of every nonsense description some difficult to recognize as keys at all. He grabbed the ring in his gauntleted hand and pulled another from it manifesting a smaller subset of them with one ephemeral key Azeal somehow recognized.
Scire offered the new smaller keyring and wax-sealed map to the god of hope and will. With a sharp-toothed smile he says, "I came because something tells me you'll make a good neighbor. Should you find your house on this map of my furthest warrens. With a key to a side door to your domain or at least as close a one as my moths can make quite yet. It's only polite I provide access to it. My warrens reach toward new knowledge in all directions but there's only a map if the moths can write it. One must secure one's inventions, you see. The keys will tell you where the entrance is but don't worry about my bleeding birds at the entrances they know better than to prey on visitors that belong." Azeal took the items and had to take a moment to process what the man said, but then smiled and nodded, “Thank you God Scire, this is all very new to me and I appreciate you and you’re moth’s assistance.” Azeal bowed to the god in thanks for his assistance.
