[ Sleipnir can hear the smirk in the Ghost Lord's tone, it does not unnerve him; his voice comes out wrapped in calm as it had been in their previous call. ]
You caught me off balance, Ghost Lord of Ghost Valley.
In matters of the soul you claimed you were 'hardly' an expert- which gave the impression I was still out to sea in search of an answer... Then you admit to being a master and completely change the tides on me.
[ And the fact you knew he was after his own soul rather than others startled him, made this suddenly very real. ]
[The title almost makes him laugh, but he refrains, biting the inside of his cheek for Sleipnir's sake. This is serious business!]
Please, call me Kexing.
There are those in my world that are experts on the subject. I, however, am a Martial Artist and Cultivator. The latter title means I have worked intimately with my spirit, forming it over years.
[He had been dismissive of his own qualities because he knows there are others that stand above him. Yet he is definitely a Master in his own right.]
As you desire. You may call me Sleipnir; I am of house Harbard.
[Lord Kexing, then. He will remember this, and all other names and titles this man has collected.]
Valisthea does not have any whom work with souls, theirs or otherwise. Which is not to say it is, as you mentioned in our previous connection, a world where people lack souls. Some know souls exist, but few know they can become pure once more. Regardless... [a small pause] ...Creations such as I... we are not given a soul, not at the time of our making.

I have been wondering... Are you alright? Did I say something offensive?
