It was actually rather interesting, watching as various people on the street showed reverence and respect to Rathael.  Certainly, he was a rather extraordinary sight, especially considering how rare celestials truly were in this world, but with all the holy signs they were getting, she was almost expecting them to start bowing down in worship in the streets.<br/><br/>'Almost' being the operative word, though.  With that grand cathedral still somewhat visible in the distance, it was pretty clear that there was already a pre-existing organized religion in place in this city, and of course with all the various bits of construction, it was also clear that the city's residents weren't anywhere near as primitive as they had once been.  No, while he was being treated as some sort of holy visitor, the half-celestial certainly wasn't going to be mistaken for any sort of messianic figure here.<br/><br/>All the attention was still probably going to go to his head, though...<br/><br/>"Yeah, more than likely."  The ghost agreed, referring to her companion's wings.  "They kind of draw the eye, really."<br/><br/>And off to the stalls, where a variety of items, both foreign and domestic, were available for sale.  The assorted jewelry and toys, in particular, caught Ellen's eye, and she was just in the middle of negotiating on the price for a couple of the worg riding dolls when Rathael suddenly found something of interest, a little gray bag from which a rodent emerged.<br/><br/>Hmm.  Given the shopkeeper's reaction...  A familiar, maybe?  Or was it some sort of magic rodent-summoning item?  Certainly, the rat seemed friendly enough, crawling up the young man's arm to explore like that.  The ghost couldn't help but smile at the sight, really.  It was kind of cute, and the rat and the man both seemed to be enjoying themselves.<br/><br/><div class="spoiler_container"><div class="spoiler_header" onclick="hideSecond (this);" role="button">Spoiler: Click to Show/Hide</div><div class="spoiler_body">xD Well, hey, without a peaceful, innocent scene to contrast it to, all the sex, action, and more sex would just get drab and boring.  I think this is a good thing, personally.</div></div>
