[ it’s this guy again. although he seems considerably less sad than he did the last time he appeared on the network to talk about accidental sympathy with the oracles of the sinless, that may not be the best thing in the world once he begins speaking. he's also wearing small angel wings, visible in the view of the camera—they're definitely fake accessories, however, rather than being a moonblessing or even a more permanent effect of the bracelet. ]

…hello.

[ he's nervous? he's nervous, and his shoulders fidget slightly. he can't look at the camera. ]

There’s been a lot of people asking about churches. [ ah. ] …I am a member of one that recently opened. It is… a re-establishment of the Order I used to belong to in my world before.

[ it isn't a ringing endorsement, but it is the truth. ]

We don’t worship any god. It is an order that focuses on the internal self and what people are capable of. A man named the Archangel is our leader. If you’ve met him… um, anyway, please come by.

[ and included, information about the Order of Malkuth, located in a primo spot on level one. go ahead, join the cult. ]

I'm happy, too.

[ That's a lie. He feels anxiety itching underneath his skin all the time. He worries often about Dextera deciding to abandon him yet again, or not enough persuasion is done to ensure that Dextera will not leave him, again.

But he can smile sound make it sound like it is true. He can feel like it is true when he looks at Dextera and feels at peace knowing that right now, the Koriel is with him. ]

I'm pleased to be the one to give you direction. Don't worry. I would not ever allow you to be lost nor lead astray.

[ dextera is at least certain that the archangel believes this—and truthfully, dextera believes it too. whether or not it’s a good idea to follow him has no bearing on the ability of the archangel to see it through. no matter what dextera feels, the archangel’s convictions are unshakeable. ]

…

[ he lifts his head, staring up at the archangel and his strangely human expression. ]

Thank you. [ softly. ] I’m sorry for being so much trouble.
