KASIL
It was a curious change of tone that made Kasil pause, frowning as he looked toward the silver-colored boy who had been so chipper just moments before. Kasil internalized that he might have said something to upset him, and was thinking of a way to apologize for whatever it was when Pan spoke up. Ah.. Kasil thought, waiting until he had finished speaking. He chuckled lightly under his breath. ”It is of no surprise to me that whomever you met only told you about Solis.” He said, his tone conversational and unchiding. ”Our friends in the Day Court think of little else besides Solis, but such is their nature. They have great pride in him, as he carries the sun from here to Dusk. He’s a strong god, and many find him worth praise.” He came a bit closer, reaching out to nudge the boy on the shoulder. ”You are new. It’s quite alright, and if you choose to worship Solis primarily then you are welcome to it. I only ask that you show Oriens respect as well, and follow the laws of our land while you are here.”
The Sovereign pulled his nose away from the boy’s shoulder, glancing up ahead and swivelling and ear towards Pan to continue to listen. ”Ah, the Dusk Court. They are a fine people, very kind.” He said brightly, nodding to himself. ”I would consider them the closest to Dawn Court, based on their ideals. Though, I have yet to meet the Queen Ranniveig. Was your friend...Florentine was it? Was she able to introduce you?” He did have a mighty curiosity about the only female Sovereign. He was sure though, that she would not have treated an outsider too harshly -- and Pan seemed to be in good health.
”I know that you will not, Pan.” Kasil agreed, spreading one of his wings to drape it across the boy’s back, as one might put an arm around a shoulder. ”I can tell that you are going to be a great servant to Oriens. Just remember something for me, alright?”He had slowed, becoming a little more solemn as he turned to look him in the face. ”Always be true to yourself. What you think...what you believe to be true is going to shape who you are -- and you need to trust yourself.”
Kasil was quite serious, and was silent a moment before drawing his wing back into his body. He wished that someone had given him the same advice at a younger age. Perhaps it might have saved him a bit of anxiety now, as a king. ”When you go, when you find other people...tell them to visit us, to see what it is like in Delumine. That is the only message I have for you to tell.” He said, the soft smile returning. ”We have nothing to hide here, only things to share.”
