[Rukkhadevata gestures to a patch of grass beside her, inviting Zhongli to bring Dohalim over to her. and when the other deity does, she'll tug him down so his head is resting in her lap. she'll also invite Zhongli to sit with her as well, wanting to catch up with her old friend.
"I am as well as I can be for being bound to my station." a choice she's made herself, of course; her voice is lighthearted. "I had wondered if you were able to hear me as well, but... It seems that in the centuries that have passed, our abilities have been altered beyond what we have already noticed." she glances down at Dohalim, smiling at his confused expression. "Luckily, this one here is in tuned with my astral energies as well."]
Who are--
[Dohalim falls silent as Rukkhadevata presses her hand gently against his forehead, the gesture just as soothing as her call out to him.
"I am Rukkhadevata. I suppose I could be considered the other half of the power held within your master core. As Rex Lapis governs over earth and stone, I govern over all flora on this planet."
that only answers a couple of Dohalim's questions; he's still confused as to why this deity is here, and why he was so drawn to her. maybe it does have something to do with his ability to wield earth astral energy, but... why him? why is it that he is so easily drawn to these gods, and them being drawn to him?
Rukkhadevata offers her warm smile and touch still, before turning her attention back up at Zhongli. "And I see you're as well as you can be, given the circumstances." her expression sobers a little. "How are you faring?"
she doesn't elaborate, but there's a hint of knowing there, as if she knows about the corruption]
