Kieran arrived before the War Deity Council's temple entrance with a distant look in his eyes. He could have reached this place faster, but he took his time to ponder the best approach.

'Interacting with the Emplenan Few won't be easy. They'll view me as nothing more than a grotesque human without something to prove my innocence and separate me from the vile ways of the higher organization.'

Kieran looked up to find two people. He was familiar with one of them, however, the other's presence was extremely vague in his mind.
