Neron sips at his wine and watches as the rest of the people file in, as they make their questions and suggestions and mull over the inevitable horror on the horizon. And he doesn't really have much to add, which may be surprising to some who know him, less so to others. When he does speak - on the heels of Kiada's words and with a small smile granted in her direction - the Hailstorm doesn't bother to introduce himself or even to stand, though his voice carries well enough.
"I assumed neutrality meant accepting all gods, rather than none at all," he says softly. "As Kiada has said, we Ascended made a choice - but in making it, that also eliminated some of our other options. We cannot simply choose to turn our backs on the Voice now. We depend on her for our survival," he points out. "So if we are neutral, I would say that means we welcome everyone."
