Austin finished his second drink, set down his cup, and, still feeling a bit unsatisfied, was about to ask for another when he heard a voice:
"Another drink for this gentleman here, put it on my tab."
Austin turned his head in surprise and saw a green-skinned youngster smiling at him.
"Over there, you, the green lad, you're offering to buy me a drink?"
Sereno showed his pearly white teeth as he nodded enthusiastically with a bright smile.
"Do I have the honor?" he asked very respectfully.
"Hmm, not bad, green lad, do you fancy becoming a god?" Austin scratched himself under his white robe again.
Sereno's eyes flickered as he sat down next to the old man who claimed to be the Grand Primus.
The conversation of the few people just now had all reached his ears, and it sparked an idea in his heart; now he finally found the chance to strike up a conversation with the old man.
"If I may ask, sir, what kind of god could I become?" he asked very respectfully.
