What wishes do you desire the most? Are they simple? Complex? Have your aims grown in magnitude since you were made a god? Have they decreased since you were made a shinki?

I have noticed a certain hierarchy, you see, and I mean no offense. I should like to hear from a shinki who has seemingly impossible wishes - or a god who possesses a simple nature. There is nothing wrong with either and, in fact, I applaud both natures.

(Ambition is dangerous, but not bad - if it is held in check by a good heart and a strong mind.)

Yes, she is a goddess of the hunt in Georgian mythology. It is also her duty to make sure the hunters do not over-hunt or slay mothers and their young. Any hunter that goes against her laws is punished severely.

I wish to perform my duties admirably.

We must all take risks when it comes to friendships. He is worth the risk, I think.

I think that's a good principle to have. I can't imagine hunting young, defenseless animals. It's... cruel.

I think you'll do well. It sounds like you're very devoted to the idea of honoring her.

I agree. He has a very good heart.

Yes, it is, and it ensures that a species becomes sparse quickly. The loss of even one species is a tragedy.

She is kind and I understand what drives her better than I thought I would. I grew up in the North of Westeros and the climate there is harsh; it snows often and without help, many animals would perish unnecessarily.

He does.
