The Toy

Neju did not hate the God-men, but he did hate the metal demons they used to destroy his people. So he prayed to the Old Gods for aid....
I hate to leave.
... But the time has come.
I suppose so ... but momma?
Yes?
May we leave them a present?
What, my child, what could they want for?
... I don't know: surely there's something. One of my toys or something. I'd like to leave them something.
That's very thoughtful, but....
Please, momma.
Perhaps we could.
They might find use for a toy, someday.
