”Sev, I gotta tell you the truth... I just met a God...”

Sev was profoundly confused, he had sensed something far amiss yet, how could it be a god? Trying to play down the situation, he gave a hollow laugh before speaking, ”What do you mean, you just met a God?” Internally he hoped that she had misinterpreted what had happened, or at least been confused...

”Sev, I met a real God. Not some being who has neared divinity. A real, full-fledged God.”

”What do you mean? How could it be a god!?!” his fright energizing his voice, slowly rising higher and higher.

Quietly, Nora replied, ”She knew about my past, she knew about everything... She gifted me whatever it was that possessed me. She even said that back when I was the First Paragon, she had been looking forward to my company once I ascended into divinity...”

”You mean...” as the realization hit him, he fell to his knees, ”a god...”

”She left before I could ask her about the so-called, 'gift'. Something about telling me in due time...”

”Sev,” her voice still soft and quiet in the aftermath of the mysterious being visiting, ”where's Lucius?”

Suddenly freeing himself from his silent trance, Sev replied, ”Oh, Lucius went to try to find a trail to track. Apparently, the Horseman had a group of Newborn Revenants with him. Revenants normally leave a trail wherever they go, we should be able to get a lead of their whereabouts.”

”Why don't we go too?”

”He's much faster than us, we'll only be in his way. Plus, he's the best tracker out of all of us...”
