#[Aster: will be having an existential crisis later]

[unlockthestars]

There's a part of Aster that is completely overwhelmed by everything that's happening. He had just happened upon a divine relic, that had been gifted to humanity by the gods, beings he wasn't entirely sure he believed in (though apparently that was about to change, considering what was currently going on), and the being within the staff he had found could create anything he could imagine.

The implications were too big to deal with right now, while he was around someone else; he would just….compartmentalize that part of what was going on, to deal with later, when he was on his own. Meeting a being that literally forced you to reevaluate what you thought about the world around you was something he was going to have to sit with for a little while, and that time was not right now.

Ambrosius confirmed that, yes, it meant he spent most of his time alone, but it's at his next words that Aster realizes that he is inviting him to ask for something; he said he was the spirit of creation, and likely takes pride in his work.

But even as he's thinking about that, another thought dawns on him. There had been a great composer, centuries ago, who had told stories of a being who had bestowed upon them an incredible instrument, one that they had used to write some of the most famous music still played around Remnant today.

Most people thought the composer was just telling tales, to drive up the mystery that surrounded them, to increase the desire for their work. Aster had thought so too, but now he was beginning to think that there had been some truth to those stories.

"Wait a moment…., there's a story I know about a famous composer…..Amadeus Wolfgang; he had an incredible violin that disappeared when he died….that was your work, wasn't it?" he asked, tail swishing in excitement. "Music historians thought he was making things up since they couldn't find it, and there are still legends about some of the work he wrote with that violin." He'd been keeping an eye out for any hints any time he traveled, but to meet the person responsible for creating such an instrument….was amazing.

It had been so long since he'd played; he didn't have a violin of his own, with how much he traveled. "Would you show me how you did it? I don't mean the same violin, but.....I would love to see how you created such an incredible instrument."

"Eh?"

The spread arms come down as Ambrosius looks down in confusion at Aster. After what he'd just announced, this hardly seemed like the most pertinent question.

"Um, yes, yes it does."

There are people nearby, people that don't seem to be frozen in alarm, panic, or delight, so as unusual as it is, it seems that Aster has retrieved the staff near civilians, and with no plan in place for what it was or what to do with it. How that had ended up happening was a question for another time, but he's sure he'll have some agitated words for whoever had simply let his staff hit the ground and be buried in sand for who knows how long.

Unless Aster was a thief, stealing valuables he didn't understand from others. That would be way more exciting. But then, he quickly realizes why Aster must've asked him this question. ...Clearly it was because he realized the value of whatever he could ask for and how time would resume as normal once he got it! He must be very concerned about witnesses and the potential of having whatever he made stolen back off of him!

This assumption carries him through his next response quite confidently.

"Does that matter? Come on, I'm not going to tell anyone what you do with this power. Well, unless it makes for a great story! What is it that you have in mind?"
