[At that mention, he scoffs, looking slightly irritated, but who wouldn't be? He doesn't look truly upset, if anything it seems like a familiar sort of annoyance, one that's tinged in secret fondness.]
Well was I ready for it, he but mourns that which I have suffered. He's a sentimental fool.
[These two idiots are just gonna go back and forth calling each other sensitive and sentimental...]
Emet-Selch is a position that is reserved for those whom have The Sight. Most Amaurotines have it to a degree, it is not rare in and of itself, but to the degree required for such a position is. Hythlodaeus and myself are uniquely talented in our ability to perceive others, for we can see their very souls. As thus, we have a born affinity with the Lifestream—though my people called it the underworld.
As such, my position dealt directly with the souls of all, to hold sway over the underworld, to guide those adamant souls of whom felt true satisfaction with their lives, those ready to return to whence they came. To make room for new life, so that those who come after might yet feel that similar satisfaction with their would-be life.
Any matter of the soul, both life or death, was my responsibility.
However, there was more to such a position, though all of the Convocation shared such burdens—for we guided our people as a group towards the best future for all.
[In short, he's the god of the underworld and death both.]
