[Iliad]

The deer god looked up at Reinn as he spoke, cervine eyes watching while his head rested lazily on the others lap. "If last night had not made it take, it would never take regardless of our efforts." He responded in an amused tone, like the question was a silly one. Chev didnt know if it was possible for the ritual to not work, but privately he believed it would not have if Reinn had been of a different temperament. The forest had a way of weeding out the weak, as well as the greedy and selfish, so far Reinn had proved to be none of those things.
"But yes, it has taken, I can feel the energy being drawn to you." He finally added, knowing how humans liked simple and sure answers.

Finally letting go Chev rose and stretched a bit, seeming to work some of the kinks from last nights before offering his hand to Reinn once more. "We can find you suitable food, and decide what best to do about your family." The god offered, trying to be accommodating to the human.
