His scoffing laugh tells you what you need to know about how he regards his ancestors. He takes another drag of the cigarette, sizing you up carefully. "The Temple of No Gods," he mutters, "is

So, here's what I'm going to try to do. I check in pretty regularly, at least right now. If there's a post and no reply after at least 1-2 hours, then I'll post a reply, so it'll keep the story moving.
