Breaking out into a wide grin, the warrior-priest begins to explain the tenets of his religion, rambling on with an almost childish enthusiasm, it's obvious he doesn't often get the opportunity to preach, [color=f7941d]"The Fiery Lord Above, blessed be His Name, illuminates our path, shelters us with His Warmth, and safeguards us with His Strength. I speak of course, of Sol, the Almighty Sphere Above, the Flame Eternal, whose Manifest Light sustains All Things! I am a humble Solist, a mere mortal who has borne witness to Sol's Glory, and now seeks only to see His Will be done.

My name is Elijah Verum, Harbinger of the Cleansing Flame, but you can call me whatever you please, for it makes no difference in His Sight. I am a Torchbearer, a warrior of Sol who has sworn to wander the world bringing Sol's Justice down upon those who would do wrong unto others for personal profit or pleasure, for such things are detestable in His Sight, and to hunt monsters, beings twisted to hate all that is not of the Darkness Eternal, and slay them, for while they live, there can be no peace."[/color]

Nodding to himself, Elijah curiously examines the Numenara shop for some time, before sheepishly turning back to Xi, [color=f7941d]"You said you were an Aeon Priest, yes? I've heard the name mentioned a time or two in my wanderings, but I've never actually met one myself. If, if you don't mind, c-could you explain your religion? I'm very fascinated by such things, and, I'd like better understand your belief system, if you're willing to explain, of course. Y-you understand."[/color]
