[Hello, citizens, you're now watching a recording of a curtain of silver hair and the sounds of someone poking and tapping at the communicator. There is an huff of breath, and then the camera is flipped over, revealing a woman with silver dog ears and red markings over her skin. She tilts her head curiously before smiling for the camera-- benevolently, radiantly, and somehow tinged with sadness. Then typing starts, slow and careful.]

HOW MANY PEOPLE STILL BELIEVE IN THE GODS? WHAT SORT OF GOD DO YOU BELIEVE IN, IF YOU DO?

[ The COMP was kind enough to read the message for him.

His response, however... ]

[ ...however, when the COMP reads his text back, it...

He...

They...

???

Forget it. Screen flickers on to young teenage boy with wings, Greco-Roman attire, the whole 9 yards. ]

I serve Lady Palutena, goddess of light! So I guess I don't believe in her, really, since I know she exists. But the humans worship her! It's been rough after she was possessed by the Chaos Kin, but after we defeated Hades people started believing again! That's because Lady Palutena would never let her people down.

[Oh...this boy is so bright with innocence and trust. She gives him a soft smile, feeling invigorated just speaking with him.]

SHE IS A FORTUNATE GODDESS TO HAVE SUCH A YOUNG ONE LOOK UP TO HER SO WHOLE-HEARTEDLY.

[gforceinmyfaaaace]

[ Not really. Wait until you meet the reflection of his dark side... ]

Yeah! I'm captain of her guard! No one's more loyal to Lady Palutena than me.

[divinebrush]

[She smiles even wider.]

CAPTAIN OF HER GUARD? I'M VERY IMPRESSED. I HOPE I MAY ONE DAY MEET THIS LADY PALUTENA OF YOURS.

[gforceinmyfaaaace]

[ He smiles, wings unfurling. ]

Man, that would be great! If there's anyone who could help the people of this world, it's Lady Palutena!

[ Also he would have his beloved boss lady and he'd be a happy angel in general. ]

[divinebrush]

I HAVE NO DOUBT SHE WILL.

MAY I KNOW YOUR NAME, WARRIOR OF LADY PALUTENA?
