Diana looked down watching the dust flow over the smooth sand stone walkway of the Egyption District.
"To be named Diana and make my parents proud."

"You have proven yourself to me to be one of my people. It is an honor to have you in my family. But as Elder, it is my job to serve and protect you. I would be no better than the Elder before me if I did not help you to reach your potential. God or not, you will always be welcome in Aurora as one of us."
He shifted a bit uncomfortable with the idea of this heart to heart.
"The choice is yours. But you have my support no matter what you choose."

Diana would remain silent for a short time.
"I will need time to think it over."

"All the time you need."
He'd say, slowly and hesitantly reaching out to give her arm a small pat before leaving to give her some space. This place was simply a wonder to behold, he could enjoy some time to marvel.

She would nod and let him think.

He had no real destination in mind so he'd just wander until something noteworthy happened, Diana came and found him, or the final test for Artemis began.

Well eventually Diana would return with a look of conviction.
"Elder, I've reached a choice."

He turned to face her, his hands clasped behind his back as he waited.
"What have you decided Diana?"

She looked down for a minute before steeling her resolve and looking up to meet his eyes.
"I have decided to try my hand at becoming Artemis. If nothing else, I want to prove that I stood a chance."

He smiled at her.
"I believe in you. And I will be watching and cheering you on."
He'd say, closing the distance and taking her hand in his. Placing his other hand on top of hers.
"You have ambition. Something I've never had, and it would fill my heart to see you achieve your ambitions and more. God or not, you will always be part of my family and I am proud of you."

Her face would light up with pride and a smile.
"Thank you Elder. I have some catching up to do with the trials, so I'm going to get on top of that. Sai has taken over negotiations with Set."

She would give a smile with a firm nod and a squeeze of Blake;s hand before taking off in a light jog to her destination!

Blake would watch her go with a small smile before continuing toward the Egyptian lands to find Sai. He suspected he would wish to watch Diana as well.

Blake would find Sai haggling the price of a hunk of Egyptian steel.
"Forty-five. Take it or leave it."
Sai would say in his usual tone, stern, but respectful.
"Fine, take your ingot."
