Ruth felt his magic ripple across something, someone with Grim. Expecting this he’d pushed deeper, but gently not to spook the companion into a defensive response. Following the ebb and flow it soon became clear that he’d been led, the Soul far more complex than most spirits Ruth had encountered.
The jolt to his conscience which had him swearing was when confronted harshly through the link. Then the swift understanding of who and what sent him reeling back, eyes snapped open to stare at Grim in disbelief. “Him? Really?... you Evanarus are dubious in your choices.”
Releasing the man’s wrists, Ruth sent one to rub the back of his neck while the other his thigh. It wasn’t at all what he’d expected to be, lurking within such an unsuspecting human. “I’m afraid things are a little more complicated… you have… how do I put this?” Ruth’s hands gestured, splayed briefly before he shrugged. “You basically have a piece of an old Elven God, but not really a God… Mage remember, and well… that’s who’s skulking about when you go night night.”
All Ruth could do was stare, his expression just as surprised as no doubt Grim would be.
