Yeah, go ahead... Dwin told @Frolic , who had been surprisingly obedient and quiet during the ceremony and not fulfilled any of the embarrassing scenarios, where her older sister would have to save her younger sister's hide from the wrath of this cult. She had to admit - they were extraordinary - but she had not decided, whether it was a good or a bad thing. It was weird watching, how games of little children were continued to be played by adults. In the case of the former - it was adorable. In the case of the latter - well, Dwin did not like it, even if they did it all in style. She thought about the dark-pelted man and their discussion about his gods. At that time he had appeared to her as an exception of the norm. A rarity. Here - she cast a glance around the people, who had gathered - at least half took this coronation and deification seriously.
The new pharaoh was no older than Dwin, but she seemed to enjoy her new shiny status and the party thrown for her. She idly wondered, if she wanted to be in her place, and the answer was a very clear cut no. In her second year of life she had grown more into the paws of the wolf she was going to be for the rest of her life. And one of her defining characteristics was being honest. With all this decourum and religious traditions, pretty words that meant nothing to her... she had a feeling that this was all a veil, an illusion to satisfy the expectations of the masses. An idol placed on a throne. A symbol you were supposed to be loyal to, trust and blindly worship, without really knowing, who they were and what they were made of. Who were these people really, when you took the layers away? And especially their belief in being more special than the others?
She memorized the new leader's name just in case it ever was useful to Brecheliant and then proceeded to walk through the crowd, see, who else had come, and keep a distant eye on Frolic. She did not touch the food or drinks provided, not trusting their next door neighbours fully. They were made of a different material than her folk and, who knew, what other odd customs they had besides the coronation rites.
