[ She’s curious about the place he comes from if it doesn’t have a sun, but when he speaks of the surface, Quetzalcoatl makes a noise of understanding. She would have had a hard time imagining it before, but after months spent in Kenos and many, many conversations talking with Springstar natives about their homes, she’s run across the concept. It’s sad to her, of course, but it’s sad in the exact same way that Highstorm is where it amounts to her personal bias being expressed.
She does look warmly pleased when he says he loves the light, though, as if he had complimented something she’d worked hard on. Granted, even in the world of the Azteca, that wasn’t strictly true anymore… But as the god that had held the highest association with the Sun despite her time being long past, she still felt a level of love and responsibility for it. ]
Even if it wasn’t me, I’m sure that your sun, moon, and stars would feel the same way, so… I’m glad that you got to see them! They’ll always welcome you, yes. People are meant to be in the light. It’s why mi familia would fight over the Suns we presided over so much!
[ More truthfully, it’s why Quetzalcoatl and Tezcatlipoca would fight over it so much. They were the light and the darkness respectively, so their ideas of the kind of world that was ideal for people would always be opposed. As such, there’s probably something fitting in the fact that the Drow would be little different if they were under Tezcatlipoca’s authority instead of Lolth’s… ]
But just so it’s not mysterious, you don’t have to worry about being a Zenite here. Anyone is welcome in my temple, so long as they’re not a troublemaker. [ She laughs at the word like it’s a joke, but considering Gen murdered someone at the foot of it not too terribly long ago, what she actually means is a lot more dire than that laugh, help,,, ] Since you’re right about the balance, at least! I can’t bring the sun to Highstorm, but I can at least bring some of its warmth. And you know, if we had a god of the night or something like that that showed up, I think it would be fair for them to set up a little something in Springstar. I don’t think anyone would agree with me, though.
