The better he got to know her the more convinced Malleus became of how pure her heart was. Serene's desire to be kind and respectful - her desire to give back when she was being given something - struck him as genuine. If she was simply pretending to care about what she could do in return, she was a very good actress. Malleus doubted quite strongly that that was the case. Nothing about their interactions thus far had suggested that might be true. He thought about her question for a second and chose his words carefully. "You shouldn't doubt the things you have to give in return; they are many, I assure you. Your allegiance to the Fallen God and commitment to the path He will lay before you, is one." Malleus thought about it a second longer. He wasn't sure what position would suit her best. Perhaps that was something they could sort out later. "Your connection to the spirits will no doubt serve us well, so that is another. And perhaps," he said frankly, "one day you might choose an Abraxas as a mate." |
