Orion and Selene walked side by side through the endless corridors of the Divine Palace.
"He really doesn't change," Selene commented, rolling her eyes, still irritated by Estav's playful ways.
"I like him," Orion said, a smile playing on his lips. "There's a certain charm in the way he teases you."
Selene gave him a sharp look, but ended up smiling sideways. "He's the kind of person who can irritate and charm in equal measure. But don't let his easygoing demeanor fool you. Estav is one of the most powerful entities in Celestia."
"I noticed," Orion replied. "The way he speaks, the way he seems to see beyond words… He doesn't underestimate anyone, but he doesn't show off everything he knows either."
Selene nodded. "He's ruled this plane for countless ages. Even the oldest gods respect him. If he gave you that approving look, it's because he saw something in you."
Orion chuckled. "Should that make me feel relieved or worried?"
