You have your doubts about Anu too, but there are questions that shouldn’t be asked to certain people… and this priest is probably one of them, judging from the scowl immediately appearing on his face. Almost immediately, Datz realizes she was a bit too reckless there. “Oh! Umm… sorry!” She smiles nervously. “That… that was kind of rude, wasn't it? I didn’t mean it…”
“Hmph...” Murdock grunts and nods, his face relaxing into a smirk. “No big deal. I’ve heard FAR worse from other gnolls. I’m guessin’ you’re the type of person that tends to doubt lots of stuff, am I correct?”
Daitza remains silent for a short while before answering the priest's question. “I… I just want the truth. We led our entire lives believing that Gnolrek cared about us…” She clenches her fists, “... I don’t want Hyeny and I to live another lie. Not again.”
“Datz…” You put a hand on her shoulder - she nods in return. You feel the same way as she does, but you’re not sure if to express it too. After all, how would these priests react if they knew that Anu’s own Champion has doubts about him?...
Murdock's smirk disappears, but he still addresses Daitza with a gentle tone. “I appreciate yer honesty, young lady. Listen… teaching the champ to cast spells will take some time. How ‘bout ye talk to another priest in the meanwhile? Surely learnin’ more ‘bout the Sky Father will change yer mind."
“Uhh…” Daitza looks unsure of his proposal. “No, no… thank you. That’s not needed. I wanna watch Hyeny learn magic.”
Murdock ignores her and looks at a young, robed dwarf who’s been staring at the two of you from afar, curious. “Gandarlig. Come here for a second.” He gestures him to approach.
