So the knighthood does exist in your world. It is good to know that even if it has passed on into history in this one, that it yet lives on in another. Interesting that our worlds should be so similar in some ways, yet so different in others. I wonder if your Eogan made my world as well as your own, or if he has a brother who made my world.

In truth, I know little of it myself. What I do know is mostly what Magnus taught me, and he was not the most objective of teachers.

Well, perhaps not just yet. You have traveled long and hard to come to Earth, I am sure. It is fit that you be allowed to satisfy your own curiosity before indulging mine. And I have duties here that I must attend to before departing for another realm. [He's glad that Aiden reminded him of that, however circumspectly.] You are welcome to accompany me as long as you like, of course.

Among mortals the taking and giving of life is rare here, though certainly there are other beings on this world capable of it. They are more monsters than men, though. Perhaps there is a price to be paid for such power on this world as well as your own.

[He chuckles.] I suppose it is, at that. A quest, as we would have called it in my day.

I hope you don't intend to reveal your true nature to my followers, I daresay they might be disappointed to hear such levity from the divine. [He lowers his head to hide his smile, though.]
