"In my world they have great power, I have often heard their voice or felt their presence. As graciously as they give their strength they can take it away if you displease them." For a moment Paladin pauses and then continues.
"Often people see their power only in healing or a blessing for their land, but the strength of their smite is awesome to behold. I find much satisfaction in it." There is almost a gleeful tone in Paladin's voice: it might be the first time she sounds like she looks, wicked.
Paladin makes a note to ask about asteroids later.
A slight shake of her dark head to shake free the previous smitting thoughts that she entertained. "It sounds very nice, being able to see and spend time with your parents, being very close to them. Did they teach you as well? You mentioned that they were educated."
