Gods? Godlings? These Atharim were full of themselves weren't they?
The nickname provided was hardly original, and the others had joked about it as well. But it snapped some of the enthusiasm out of Allan's sail. He looked abashed, but it didn't last long as he extended his hand. "I'm sorry. I just get excited about these sorts of things. My name is Allan. And you are Nox?" The kid nodded and took his hand with a firm handshake. There was no power play here, just a kid meeting someone new. It felt odd, all the others he'd met like him had sorta wanted to play at who is better. Well not all of them, but most of them.
"I don't mind the talking about these sorts of things, so ask away." Nox said with a grin. He looked genuine.
"You really don't know what you are allowing?"
He laughed. "I'm pretty sure I do. I'm not nearly as knowledgable as Aria or Aurora, but I'll tell you what I can."
"How did you learn to be this ... Atharim." Allan tested the word. It wasn't foreign, but it was a secret organization. Was it like speaking of the Illuminati? Or some other secret cult? Did you know? "Can just anyone become one of them?" Now that would be interesting a Rod of Dominiom and Atharim. Not that he expected the Ascendancy would ever let that happen. "I have too many questions. I should stop."
