A temporary visit to Abaven had somehow turned into... living here, it seemed. Thalia had made to return home once but somehow the timing hadn't felt quite right, and she'd been torn as to what she'd tell Eligos when she got there. The quiet life that she led here with Thalia somehow felt fulfilling, in a way she hadn't expected it would. Here she could be dutiful and keep to herself; she could worship quietly, and not just her God. Her feelings for Thalia often had strange parallels to her feelings for her God, and she wondered more often than not how something that felt so right could simultaneously feel so wrong. This was not why she was here, and yet she'd worried she'd become powerless to her feelings. Or perhaps this was all part of His plan. She really didn't know and she worried that reconnecting with Aerie would only deepen her uncertainty.
Thalia had never done well when things weren't predictable, and Theory - and her feelings for her - were anything but. Somehow she'd managed to shake off the sharp edge she'd come to Abaven with so many seasons ago, but she still felt strange and out of place here most of the time, though most of that uneasiness melted away as soon as she heard Theory's familiar pawsteps. She was certain who was approaching before she even smelled her, and she let a small grin touched her lips as Theory moved to join her. "Good morning," she echoed her greeting with as much warmness as she tended to muster. Her smile said it all though, even if it faded soon after it appeared. "Nowhere in particular. I wanted to spend some time in prayer, but you're welcome to join me if you'd like." Her beliefs had always been a source of... not contention, not quite, but unease - at least on her end. Thalia was fiercely protective of her beliefs and Theory seemed to respect that, but she couldn't shake the feeling that one day it might come between them. Like she might not ever be capable of fully devoting herself to someone who didn't share her unyielding beliefs. She tried to push those thoughts from her mind for now though, not wanting to sour her mood.
