Sea Lion Shores samsara

It had been some time since he had been gifted one who wished to learn so much, and the glow in her mint eyes was not lost upon the shaman. Ame was genuinely intrigued, and though Lecter did not often feel the need to proselytize, the dark woman had invited it. "Yes and no," he murmured softly. "Sos cannot stop life from occurring. He can interfere, but not even in His power can he stop life from being brought forth from their mothers, or prevent the changing of the seasons.

And so, it seems, that even Their greatest strengths must be balanced. One cannot overcome the other."

Lecter shook his head. "I do not know from where the beliefs come. There was a pack upon the coast to which I belonged, and we worshipped the Gods there for some time." The memory of Shearwater Bay burned, and the man fell silent on that front, not wishing to evoke more remembrances than necessary.

"And your worship, Ame? Do you fear the Gods?"
