“The Emperor protects,” I said softly, and Isarae scoffed. “You laugh, but you say what happened is impossible, yes?” Isarae nodded tentatively. “But it happened,” I gestured down to myself, “I’m unharmed, I was protected… I do not need you to believe in my faith, Isarae, but I know that the God-Emperor watches over me, as he does all of his subjects.”
“Well, let us hope he continues to watch over you,” Isarae said wearily, waving aside the conversation. “For now, we should do what I intended to do when I brought you here and move on, there’s no telling how long we have before another looting party happens along.”
“What did you intend?”
Isarae gestured to me. “You need armor, and yours cannot be easily repaired, if it can be repaired at all.”
