âForcedâŚ?â What. From all things and people sheâs seen in Ionia, he had to be the most peculiar. And thatâd be very clear given her puzzled gaze upon seeing the outstretched wings.
âCold⌠Iâm well versed with it, Targon can get incredibly cold. What are you? An AngelâŚ?â She knew Kayle, and she was pretty sure thatâs what she called herself, wings and all.

âNot forced in a way you think, the people who keep me here like to keep me looking âformalâ to a god of sorts I suppose. Thatâs a way to put it really. Havenât stepped a foot outside that temple until.. right now! We should probably keep walking if we want to get anywhere, the people really like keeping their âgodâ safe from harm.â He used his wing to usher her along as he spoke, a smile playing on his lips with a bounce of excitement in his step. âYouâve been to targon? You LIVE there? That must be quite the journey, why exactly do you bring yourself to Ionia? Curious of the sights, perhaps taking a day off from the cold?âÂ
âA godâŚ?â She was about to ask further, but then one of his wings slapped her back. She wasnât one to pay mind to strangers, much less what they wished from her, but sheâd keep her pace steady with him. He sounded far too excited, but given he did not seem to go out much, she could not blame him.
âSupposedly. Yet I would not call it home, not yet.â Her tone went dull with the answer, the subtle shrug of her shoulders emphasizing her apathy towards the topic. âAnd no, none of those options. Iâm here mostly for the Lunar temples. Iâd say the one you were in had nothing to do with them, correct?â
Here she thought her trip would be peaceful. One mistake and she was stuck with a flamboyant Ionian god of sortsâŚ
âI donât think so.â He says a brow raising in thought. âAlthough I am aware of other places that do have some temples scattered about. Heard some of the locals speak of these places. Didnât think they were lunar ones.â
His wings eventually stopped drifting behind her, only to fold neatly against his back. Surprisingly for their size they were compact. Extremely useful if he didnât want to fill up such a large area with his mass amount of feathery fluff.
âStill searching for a home then? I wouldnât worry too much. You have to remember that home doesn't have to be in one place. It can be in many! Well, in my opinion, that is.â
