[ugh, vash is SO annoying. this is pointless! hunter snaps out a very quick "I'm fine!" before getting right to it. which... he is pacing, definitely not sitting.]
So, people are talking about reviving the Gods and Guardians. I asked Pure Vanilla whether all or any of them actually want that. I understand that the Forest has some sort of -- incomplete control over life and death, and it might be more akin to something like an undeath or maybe -- more like their life force is simply frozen until they're revived? But still! It doesn't feel like it should be our choice to raise anyone from the dead just because they might be able to save us!
[he might be getting a little too worked up. and he might have said all of very quickly that in one breath and has to take a really fucking deep breath here. at least that helps calm his nerves a smidge?
... before he speaks again, he pulls a single, large iridescent feather out to show vash. his own face is still anxious, but less outright panicked. more somber, now.]
I received this when I first arrived in the Grove. It has this... sort of warm feeling when I hold it? I followed it nearly to the burned part of town, and when I dug down in the spot there... I -- I think I found the Sky Guardian's bones.
[he looks up at vash with big, pleading eyes. vash couldn't possibly know all the responsibilities hunter has borne in his short time, but this... this is a little too intense for him to figure out on his own.]
