Second chances

MaeA It was not like any request Maea had braced herself for, or expected. She gaped in surprise at the masked figure, stunned and relieved and a bit.. well, concerned to tell the truth, because she had no idea what it might be like to let the deity use her like that. But almost immediately a smile spread over her lips, because the idea of Ludo simply wanting to participate in the festival was so sweet, so wistfully endearing that she would not have been able to refuse even if she wanted to. Not that she did. "I would be honored" she said, and meant it. "My eyes are yours. Thank you for this chance! From the bottom of my heart, thank you!" Excitement bubbled up within, and if Maea vad been of a less conservative spirit she might have tried to hug the masked figure. Perhaps it was fortunate that she restrained herself... you're so cold, but you feel alive.
