"You have told me two options," you tell them, "but there must be another."
"That is true," replies Ziva, "and three paths indeed lie before you now."
"This is Domorvost," says Veles, addressing both you and your advisors, "and it lies both within and without the spirit world. This, as you know, is where the greatest heroes of the steppe people are taken after death. They live not as shades of themselves but as true reincarnations—as heroic and vibrant in death as they were in life. If you choose, we will accept all of your tribe into this realm."
"It is also human nature to fight for life," adds Svarog. "We understand this, and we know that Zhan-Ukhel is but hours from reaching the Valley of the North Wind. The greatest warriors among your ancestors are here, Basileios. If you wish it, you can call on them to aid you in the coming battle."
"But neither of these are the paths of which Svarog spoke, Basileios," says Veles. "Our true reason for leading you here is because we believe you to be the reincarnation of our fallen leader Perun, the god of light."
