<span style="color: orange">"Everything is a good time when we're together my love, I don't think you could properly punish me if you tried. Not that I'm against you trying, mind you." </span>Astiria looked around the area as they walked and leaned against him.<span style="color: orange">"I don't mind it though, it's got a unique charm."</span><br/><br/><span style="color: blue">"It's possible he's the one who decided to take them. Your father worshiped him but Ras became the High Priest instead, against his will, it's possible it was done to spite not you but Ras. You <i>did</i> turn on him, didn't you? Regardless, now you know how to get your powers back and those responsible are either dead or cannot change the rules. Usually it's the gods themselves that choose their replacements or High Priests, sometimes they're chosen for us. I have chosen my own replacement, but I wasn't able to choose my High Priestess." </span>She shot Shauna a glance as she walked into the kitchen where Ras returned the hug and kissed her softly.<span style="color: blue">"Ras and Shauna are the only people worthy of siring the child of a goddess. And Ras is... not what I'd consider worthy, but he is another god at the very least, and he does love you. Shauna seems convinced the only way to conceive a child is through carnal means but it's not my place to tell her how to live her life. I gave her an option, that's all I can do."</span><div class="messageTextEndMarker"> </div>
