[As soon as it registers that Sorrow is in the room with her, Faith turns to face him. There's no attempt to hide the emotion on her face. If anything, there's more of the same twinge inside when she sees him, because he looks no different from her, just like she looks no different from humans or even superhumans. Sure, that's not his real form, but it's what he's chosen now, and it hammers the point home that he's a person. He has feelings. He grieves and hopes and wants like anyone else does.
What's a title like 'god' or 'legend' mean anyway, except to separate people, to put some above others. What's it matter, when in the end they can live or die like anyone else. Kingdoms and civilizations come and go, but people are still people.
That's why she did what she did back home. That's why she'd do it again if she had to.]
I hope so too, for your sake. If I could-- If I could bring back some o' the people that died, I think-- I'd at least try. [She can't lie to him about that, not when he's taken the time to show himself, when he's shared something so painful.
Faith takes it that he means their kingdom was stunning in the past, so she follows up from there.] Now that Tranquility's back, you think you'll get it looking like before?
[She's genuinely curious. Clearly they're not like the original inhabitants of the city, but maybe the aesthetic will be nice to live amid anyway.]
