[QUOTE="SHARK, post: 1211234, member: 1131"] Greetings! Hey there Voadam! That's a good point that you make about any celestial cohorts. I can see him wanting to dismiss them back to the celestial realms, so that he can do his penance, but also as a point of pride, too. He may want to show what he can do all by himself, as it were, heh?:) Then, as you mentioned, they, out of devotion and loyalty to him, wanting to disguise themselves so that they can accompany him on his journeys. There is an obvious bond with many of these celestial followers, who at least for some, may have been serving Zhemenar for thousands and thousands of years! I can hardly see them going away quietly, or giving up, even if it is his command. They might see it as him not being in his right mind, and not really seeing that he needs them, and on another level, as he has been loyal and devoted to them in the past, including his example in saving Nyllyrra, they may see it as they being loyal to him in return, whether he feels he *needs* their help or not.
