The little stories of meeting mortals are a nice touch!

Thank you big, George; I'm glad my attempts at prose were found as complementary to the article. Also, fun fact: "Holy/Healing magic" in Ikwento is actually the manipulation of time, which is probably why Daeva's halo has the specific property of destroying anything on contact. (Stuff like this isn't ever addressed in-universe which is why I like sharing it)
I've already said this I'm sure , but I love what you've done with Daeva upon bringing her to Ikwento. Her four different appearances are awesome and I like that way you have them all laid out here. Also, I never realized until now that Daeva (and Suitalk?) are half-mortal. All the prose sections throughout this article are also really great, I especially like the third one. Can't wait to see more!
Ah, thank you so much, Puffin; I'm glad you found Daeva's current art and the prose likeable. And yes, Daeva & Suitalk are technically half-mortal, but only in the sense that their mother's thoughts helped shape them at birth; otherwise they're just as magical as the other minor deities.
Oooh, this article kept me hooked! What an interesting yet somewhat unnerving character! I'm curious about Aelish Sign Language, and curious to see Daeva's intentions for the future. Daeva's abilities are also intriguing too - they seem very useful!
Thank you so much, Ocelot; I'm glad you found Daeva worth a read. ASL isn't all too different from most real-world forms of Sign Language such as ESL, but something you might find neat is that humanoid Gestalts (Magic Robots) were the ones to form it due to originally being made unable to speak. As for Daeva's unique abilities, I'd wager they're a large part of both her elusive nature along with being able to get so close to Humans.
