Kelthis's features remained impassive throughout the entirety of the ordeal, only a simple shifting of his eyes between the gods as they spoke acknowledging that they even existed, that the words they voiced mattered to his psyche in any way. They did not as a matter of point for although he could not predict their exact sentences he knew what they would do in reaction to his actions. Why could they not see? Why did they apologize, appease, accuse and patronize him, he who knows what can transpire before others?

His lips trembled into a rictus snarl even as hands tightened around the arms of the throne, a facsimile of blood flushing lightening the tone of his hands. "Of course I speak to you as if you did not witness the same for you did not. You cannot comprehend nor will you ever what I endured during that time. I scoff at the idea that you even carry out a vote or that you assume it shall mean a drastic change in Illysus. Take your damned throne, Prothos, for you were always going to receive it. Take it and allow me rest from these assembled follies,"spat the god. An uncharacteristic anger had entered Kelthis's voice, an emotion that no god would have heard for untold centuries if ever in their existence.

Stepping to the door, he found that his unconscious mind had created the semblance of pain for him, a distraction in the tearing of incorporeal flesh. A seething sigh escaped his compressed lips. Prothos rattled off the names of his advisers, names that Kelthis knew would be there, had known since the calling of the moot yet did not ease his troubled soul. A fist lashed out and slammed into the wall near the entrance, denting the godly material, sending a resounding thunder throughout the hall. Turning his head to face the assembled major gods, the shadows of his form darkened. "Enjoy your kingship, brother," he uttered, an ominous yet sad tenor in his speech. "Enjoy it while the glamour lasts." Stepping through the closed doors in a phasing form, the god of planning disappeared from the hall, his mark, both physical and mental, left for those remaining.
