"Ambrose." I offered softly, only raising my head once I heard the deity laugh. She seemed utterly amused with my respect and I couldn't help my jump as the doors slammed shut behind me and Lee. I wasn't even aware there had been doors.
"Better not to have any little worms trying to listen in. After all, this is a courtesy for you and you alone, Virtue of Loyalty." The witch deity grinned and I had to force my own smile to be polite. I had never met her before, but I hadn't quite expected her to be so flamboyant and eccentric. Jinx always spoke of her with reverence and awe and I had expected Ambrose to present like a wise, mature woman. Instead, she reminded me more of a crafty fox. "I thought I would be seeing you much sooner. I will assume you had other errands to attend to, now that he has made his move."
