Richard whining and pouting in Greenland
Richard felt anger rush to his cheeks as he looked down at Scytherin. He remembered the man, what he did to Richard. Richard had asked for help and the man pushed him off into the streets, with some half baked attempt at finding shelter.
Now Richard was supposed to protect him and take care of him? Scytherin was feeling shocked and weirded out by a different culture and different things happening, and instead of just kicking him to the curb and letting him fend for it on his own, Richard had to help the man, and understanding how hard it was for him.
Richard was going to yell at him, yell at them both, but in the end he just turned around and walked away. He had to live with them, for awhile longer at least. No need to rock the boat.
But he didn't feel a need to stay here. Could he leave them behind? If Scytherin could not handle it, perhaps he should be left behind. Richard to go onto the next mission.
He didn't know, but he couldn't just stand around here... and watch the native people perform a ritual feast and celebration over his conquest.
Richard made a fire, and in it he burned offerings of fat and bones. His memory banks told him that when talking to a god, this is the offerings one is to give to a god.
In front of the tall fire, flames licking at the sky above, Richard knelt down to pray to Zeus.
"I need to know what to do, where to go next. I am lost... lost in most of the things I do. This, this isn't what I thought it would be at all, but I'm not giving up. My companions are unable to keep going. They do not know how important this is to me. I think you do though, you know my love for her. Just tell me where I need to go next."
