"Great ceremonial bow! Worship the Divine King!"
The Elder Priest Acap chanted loudly, and then prostrated himself at the feet of the Divine King. Upon hearing this chant, the nearby Elder Priests, close aides of the Divine King, all simultaneously knelt and bowed. Subsequently, the entire three-tiered palace of the Divine King resonated with the sounds of kneeling and bowing in worship. The only one standing was Xiulote before the Divine King.
Avit, on the Throne of the Gods, was dressed in an elaborate Sun Feather Garb with an Eagle Feather Crown that almost masked his face. His face showed no expression, only a pair of eyes that gazed down upon the world. He gently nodded when he saw everyone prostrate in worship, and then his cold and unfeeling gaze fell upon the standing Xiulote.
"Xiulote... haven't seen him for over three years... he looks different now..."
