Her eting ended after forty three minutes and then Fion ca to see her. Fion Carlzon was not like his brother, where Tion was intense he was easy going. Tion was bulky and strong but Fion was leaner and smaller in size. She could not call him weak for she had no idea what level of strength or abilities he possessed. He was reported to be an excellent space ship pilot however, even the cha warriors association and different hunters guilds tried to recruit him but he turned them all down. Were it not for his feet that were always on the move he would be a very successful pilot.
"Greetings governor Scarlet." He bowed before her humbly. Fion was very soft spoken, his voice was soft and tender and his mouth naturally curled up to give him a hint of a smile on his face all the ti.
"Greetings Fion, please take a seat. You can tell if you want your brother to give us so privacy."
"I don't mind him being here after all my family will be affected in a way by the decision I take today." He answered. "But I am not going to be changing my mind. I am a well traveled man and this is not my first ti coming into contact with the information about deities or having a higher purpose. There is a temple on the high mountain in a village on the yellow star, it is funded and built by the actor Ramslin. I visited once after hearing about the rumors from the citizens about it. The temple is well built, very beautiful and its slopes are filled with colorful flowers and streams of water. There is a statue of a female goddess nad Rai in the temple. The people there called her the goddess of fertility and prosperity. It is said that the day the temple was finished on that sa night an erald mine was discovered in the village. Rumor also has it that the village with a population of three million people had not produced a cha warrior for over five hundred years. No child had awakened ntal strength above a 'C' level. I don't know if it was out of desperation or curiosity but so people, won especially flocked the temple to pray. Last year three children in that village were born with 'S' class levels of ntal strength. One man from their village was given a job in the city hall of the capital. So other changes have taken place but all of them have been positive. I stayed in the temple for one night and it was the best sleep of my life, I felt peace, light and love.
I wanted to stay permanently so my plan was to apply and beco a priest but the goddess Rai is served only by won. I tried to et Ramslin and plead my case but he is a famous actor who has no ti for soone like , not even the Carlzon na could get a eting with him. After failing to et him three tis I gave up and continued wandering around the Sun star from place to place in search of sothing similar. Imagine my surprise when I saw a statue, similar ways of praying and an environnt that gave the sa feeling here. I will not give up on my calling, I have found what I seek."
'That actor Ramslin must be the other grim reaper.' She thought. Would their paths ever cross?
"I hear everything that you say Fion however you should understand that to be a priest of this deity is no walk in the park. It's a life that requires sacrifice. You will have to beco completely hairless from head to toe. You will be required to beco completely celibate, you cannot engage sexually with a woman, you cannot think lewdly about any woman, touch her in any way with or without desire. You will have to give up on eating at and you can only eat vegetables and grains. You will have to conduct yourself with utmost respect, be pure in mind, body and soul. You must study hard, learn the scriptures and teach them to others. You will not be able to have your own children even though you can adopt and raise so orphans in the temple. Your ti will be spent in prayers, learning the scriptures, helping the poor, sick and others on whom ill fortune has fallen. Are you willing to do all these and more?"
"I am pure of mind and body because I have never sexually entangled with any woman or man." Fion answered. "at is new to so giving it up is not a problem. You have said that I can raise orphans and to any child I can raise is considered my own."
"You cannot beco a priest just because you are impotent." She retorted. He seed to be so ready to give it all up without thinking twice. Was he a virgin because he could not function like a normal man?
"I am not impotent, my manhood is perfectly capable of functioning. I simply have no desire to explore another person's body. If you need assurance then you can have examined."
She looked at Tion who was looking forward and silent as if this conversation did not bother or relate to him completely. Could he hear all the things that his brother was willing to give up?
She sighed and said, "You seem to have given this a lot of thought."
"I have." He nodded.
"Have you spoken to your mother about it?" Not every mother would be pleased to learn that her son was cutting the lineage short by not giving her grandchildren.
"I will inform her tonight." He assured her. "But I will not be changing my mind."
Scarlet folded her arms and looked at Fion for a few seconds in silence before standing up. "If you are still determined, then tomorrow you can start a trial period of two months. The deities are not cruel, if a priest no longer wishes to serve they can always walk away so if after two months you wish to walk away I will not bla you. But if you are determined to go through with it then I will ordain you personally and give you all that you need to beco an excellent priest."
She was going to tap him on the shoulder but he bent away slightly, avoiding her touch. She chuckled and walked out of the tents, it was almost ti for her fight.
