Gracie had a very urgent and important question that she needed to consult with the elder.
"...A deity?"
Anke was making tea, and his hands paused slightly upon hearing this, but he continued to prepare the tea.
Throughout this process, Gracie remained motionless, simply waiting quietly.
Anke poured a small cup of tea for Gracie, which already overwhelmed her with gratitude.
After all, this was tea, a magical beverage that could help Mages recover and meditate, with each gram worth its weight in shining gold.
Anke took a sip of tea and then slowly said, "Yes, the Prince does indeed need to consider venerating a deity. Only a deity can pierce the fog, only a deity can guide us to the place untouched by man, and likewise, only a deity can confront the horrors within the fog. But does the Prince truly understand what a deity is?"
