She gave a little shrug. "I was probably holding on to the hope that I'd go home some day, and get back to MY parents, you know?" She smiled, but it was almost sad. Giving a shake of her head, she continued on.
"I've made a life since leaving, though. If I'm going to be stuck here, I might as well make the best of it. Right?"

"Hmmm.... that's true."
He nods. After all, he'd had much similar thoughts to that not so long ago.
"At least, until we find a way back."
Cain looks back towards her.
"Because we will go back. One way or another."

Shiloh's smile remained sad. She thought about that world, about how things were when she left... and about the family she had started building up here.
"I thought there was nothing really left back home?"

"Who told you that?"
Cain makes a disgusted face.
"That's probably a lie to keep us here. There has to be something left at home, even if we have to rebuild from something small. I don't imagine the Gods just disappeared."

She gave a little shrug, not willing to meet Cain's eyes.
"I don't know whats true and whats not. Anything I know is from hearsay, and everything those people know is probably guesswork to some degree."
Shiloh stopped just outside of a chic little coffee shop, the inside filled with books and mugs hanging on the walls.
"All I know for sure is that we somehow ended up here, and that this is some kind of parallel universe to ours. Thats all I know, for sure."

"Then don't worry about it."
Cain huffs through his nose, looking at the shop. Everything here was so... strange, to him. Even Cabal didn't have the same feel as this place.
But... it did look relaxing.
"As long as you want to go back, you can go back. Unless you're too happy being here?"

Shiloh fell silent for a moment, thoughts of Adelaide and the others filling her mind. She had managed to build a life for herself in the three years since leaving the orphanage, and she really had no idea what their world would be like, if she ever went back.
"I would like to see my parents again," she said at last, her tone thoughtful as she considered what Cain said. "But I'm pretty sure they're... gone."

"What God did you pray to?"
Cain asks, looking down at his hand.
"...if they are gone, I'll talk to the ones left. Maybe I can set you up a day to see them, or something."
He's already brought others to Mount Olympus before.

A day to see them? She furrowed her brows and turned to look at Cain, looking genuinely confused.
"What do you mean? See them? You mean... my parents?"

"Well, yeah."
He says, turning his head towards her.
"Death Gods take care of the souls of the departed. It'd be a matter of figuring out which one has your parents, if they passed on, then seeing if they'll let you meet them. I'm sure they'll be a bit more... uh... willing, about it, if I ask."
Cain kind of chuckles to himself. So far, he hadn't made the greatest impression with Hermes. Maybe that would change when he went back?

"I've never honestly put that much thought into the different gods..."
Shiloh stood there for a moment, her gaze distant. There was a way she could talk to her parents again... to tell them all of the things that she never had the opportunity to tell them before. To say goodbye. She took a deep, calming breath, trying to keep the tears inside.
"That... I'd give almost anything for that," she said with a wobbly smile at Cain. "But why would they be... more willing to accept, if you asked?"

For the first time since he'd left the house today, Cain gives a small smile in return. He liked helping people, even if it meant he would probably end up getting in trouble again.
"Well, because I'm a God too."

To her credit, Shiloh seemed to put genuine thought into what he said, her head tilted to one side as she mulled that over in her mind.
"You're... a God, too?"

"Well, yeah."
He frowns a little. That's one of the things he hates the most about this damn world, they don't even recognize all the hard work he put into finally achieving his life's goal.
But... that's not her fault. Probably.
"I'm not a Death God, though, so it's not exactly my area of expertise."

"What kind of God are you?" She asked, genuinely curious. She didn't seem to think it was strange for her to be sitting here, talking to a God.
Leading him into the coffee shop at last, she waited in the line, keeping a slight distance between herself and the customers in front of them.
