Enough time (one, two weeks?) had passed since Dharatan's exorcism for Zaffran to patch together facts with exaggeration and outright falsehood, nevertheless the memory of Salvo felling a demon -- in a single blow! -- wouldn't cloud over... In fact, that moment would come up in her behorned head at times when she should be relishing, a violent and sudden subversion of that most central cosmological truth: demon beats mortal, mortal beats shinjin, shinjin beats demon! Was this a portent of things to come? An eon of calm, prosperity, virtue...
Zaffran shuddered at the thought, pulled the feathers that winged her shoulders closer. The stratospheric cold bothered her little, simply her thoughts (and the idea of being encased in metal) kept her on edge. She shuffled between faceless cultists, tugging and dusting their robes and finery.
"She'll have a hat. Pay attention to the hat! I want mine to be bigger..." she whispered this last remark over a minion's ear, coming to the front of the massed worshippers at the nearing sounds of peg-legs and boots -- the pirates were coming! In their thieving multitudes, at last, these mortals that so closely resembled demons. The goat was beyond herself, rubbing her goat hands and doing her best goat smile:
"Dear captain, you came in victory! Heard you blew Shinjin rump on Namek. No better meal, aye? Take them down a notch, two, twenty." she sighed, wishing for a chance to be the one humiliating Gods. A hooded groveller crawled to the demon's side, bringing in his arms an oversized bottle of rum. She whisked the vessel and tossed it at the Heran, "Let's be dear and acquainted as two Novas should! To your office, then?"
