He shrugged, and then answered her questions, though some he kept deliberately vague due to not wanting to give too much away.<br/><br/>He had been 'away' due to the end consequences of the Verdelet war, and had gotten back a handful of months ago. What he had done had been talking with his brother Barid, and then running around trying to figure out what had happened to all his children and Companions. He clarified that Barid was not a blood brother, but more an oath brother due to things that had occurred a long time ago in a galaxy far far away, though he was smirking slightly as he used that particular quote. Planar politics were, as far as he knew, currently reamed, though the Blood War was continuing on in fine style, mostly cause even Barid knew better than to try and do something about that. The worst case scenario was that he succeeded in stopping it, and had several trillion demons and devils with nothing to do now. He clarified the comment of reamed by stating nearly even god, goddess, or higher power had all vanished at about the same time, allowing for Barid to have an almost completely bloodless takeover , and had established his portal network likely soon afterwards.
