[Thoth laughs, quietly and politely.] Would you listen to that, Lord Set?
[Set simply sighs. He could tell her she doesn't know because he'd killed his mother when he was born and his father hated. That he had only ever been special to one and he was gone and...
They're chaotic thoughts that enter his mind but he doesn't voice them. Thoth looks at him, as if seeing if he will. But when Set stays quiet, Thoth figures he will have to be the one to talk.]
Lord Set will show you where you can stay. [Set opens his mouth to argue, saying this should be Thoth's job but Thoth cuts him off before he can even try.] Diplomacy, your highness. Lord Osiris did have a knack for it. [He bows and it's a mockery, Set knows, but he can always be shut up when he is told his brother's name. When he is told Osiris could do this and he could. It's why he should be here.
But he is not.
So Set nods and motions for Mithiel to follow him.] Come with me.
