I love how no matter what time in her life you take her from, Ruby is awful at hiding that she's interested to learn something.

She's VERY lucky that the cult leader wants her interested in a lot of things, so long as they're filtered through him. Because if he wasn't she'd not have made it a year, even as she learned to hide everything else.

Lillie the moment someone mentions they, too, like horses: !!!

... ZornSable Hey. Hey. Zorn. Did I ever tell you the basics of how gods are made in Ruby's world? If so: Did I accidentally into 'basically primals' before I even started playing FFXIV?

HAHA You didn't but that's not surprising! I love it.

YEAH SO. BASICALLY GODS ARE CREATED BY THE BELIEF IN THEM. And if someone is believed to be supernatural by enough people, or simply strong enough by the people, then they can become deities. LOL. Like there's none of the summoning, but there's definitely 'mythological-esque people become deities sometimes and it's wild'.
