Theo is willing to follow!

… Does anybody have any questions for him or is he going to, like, die of boredom and lack-of-knowing-what-to-explain-first?

Kaede does!

"So in your world, anyone can summon those, er, three things, and there are five worlds in total, three for your powered things, one where 'mortals' live, and one where they go when they die... Did I miss anything?"

"Nope, pretty sure that's the main stuff – daeva's the collective word. There are concordances, though, between the non-mortal-worlds, think I said that, and we can be summoned to the mortal world but not to limbo or other non-mortal-worlds with appropriate circles and typically with bindings, and we're indestructible – limboites included."

He pauses to think, then says, "Oh, uh. At least some ex-summoners become daeva instead of limboites – I'm not sure on the particular skew or if it's all of them, but I've met a couple of angels who used to be summoners."

She stops walking. "Dooooes that mean I'm gonna go to your afterlife if I die because that was not in the plans."

"The plans?"

She looks around and says, "I can explain later in a less public place."

Lulu sighs.

"No idea!" he says. "I have never heard of people in Limbo who are from here, or in fact anywhere with spherecorders and Sin, just people from Earth like usual, and I've never spoken to a daeva who's gone to a non-Earth and non-moon place, nor one who's from there, so yeah, you might go to our afterlife but this whole situation continues to be unprecedented as far as I know."

"Okay, that's... better, I suppose."

"… Better? Because it might not sidetrack your mysterious plans, or because this actually explains why I can't explain things as well as you expect?"

She waves her hand. "Wakka doesn't like it when I talk about that."

Wakka is in fact apparently studiously ignoring this, making his way to a statue and kneeling before it. He starts gesturing at it in a repeated motion of spreading his arms out and then bringing them together as if they were holding an invisible ball in front of his chest. "Lord Ohalland, guide our feet and give us strength," he says.

"I mean, okay, but he's over there and I'm not sure if this means I need to be worried…? Because this place kinda creepily reminds me of some stuff?"

"Except I should go pray, too," she says—

—and her visage changes, like she's someone else entirely wearing the same skin. She kneels beside Wakka, and starts praying, as well. More silently than he does, but still.

… Well that was, uh, vaguely creepy.

She is a very conscientious and pious summoner. The pillar of the community. Watch her be that.

Uh-huh.

Nah, he thinks he'll look at the slightly less creepy things presumably going on somewhere, thanks.

He's in a temple. There are statues and flames and people praying at the statues and a set of stairs into double doors. In other words, not much in the way of slightly less creepy, no.

Ugh. He'll just wait around looking at all the creepy stuff in that case, then, with no non-creepy to break it up.

After a couple of minutes, the door at the top of the stairs opens, and two people step out. Kaede looks up and both she and Wakka stand up.

"A summoner, are you?"

"Yes. I am Kaede, from the Isle of Besaid."

And because the temple is so small, Theo is nearby and politely not interposing himself into the conversation, how polite of the – black-winged white humanoid wearing foreign clothing.

"Dona. So, you're High Summoner Braska's daughter. That's quite a name to live up to. My, my—"

She notices the winged humanoid.

"What is that?"

He turns to look at her! Doesn't answer, though, because apparently he's being treated like an inanimate object.
