I will not question your knowledge of how our worlds may be connected. You know infinity more about such things than I do. If your power and skill can be of help, then we would be foolish to turn away your aid. [There is a pause before a response to the first part of her message comes. It is clear this is something he needed more time to think about.]
So if only part of the soul goes back, that would explain why a person's body would change. There is still a link between the self that is back home and the self that is here. Information--in this case memories--passes between the two with the soul as a link. Am I interpreting that correctly?
Noct was actually the one who confirmed the link for me. The story is quite interesting.
[ a.k.a. ask him about it and have more Dad + Son bonding time!! ]
If I am able to assist I shall. Even if I lose all memory of this place upon my return, if an opportunity presents itself I will do my best to offer aid all the same. My comrades would, as well.
[ Era needs a moment before answering, recalling just how she came about this information. ]
That would be the short of it, yes. My partner could see souls, and thus was able to observe this when it happened to me.
[He will definitely have to have a chat with his son about that. How very interesting.]
Of course. I should have realized that. He was able to see the souls that reside in my ring as well. [It had, in fact, made Regis very wary of the man for a while, but now he is grateful for the knowledge the ability has brought them.]
How very strange to think we literally existed in two places at once for that time. The power these gods have is amazing, even at their current reduced levels.
[The idea that something is 'wrong' with his ring takes Regis aback for a moment. Of course, he realizes that it a logical way to put it once the surprise fades. After all, most rings don't hold over a hundred different souls in them.]
As far as I know, the souls are whole, yes. They occasionally communicate with the one who wears the ring and each still has the personality they had in life, at least if the records of their lives are correct, that is. It is a gathering place of sorts, allowing the bloodline's power to grow until the day the True King is ready to wield it.
You have experienced so much more than I. I will have to take your word for it then.
If it would not cause too much inconvenience for you, would it be possible for you to leave your ring elsewhere, or within your armiger, for the duration of the dinner?
I have an ability that allows my soul to connect with others, however I have no control over it as of yet. As I will be hosting, I would prefer to minimize the chances of an ill-timed bout of unconsciousness.
[Mildly concerning is an understatement. Regis can't help but wince as he reads that.]
Of course. I'm not sure how the ring and the Armiger will interact with each other, so I would rather not store it there, but I will find someone who I can leave it with for a few hours.
[Normally, this would be Cor, but as he is also invited, Regis will look to another.]
If you cannot find someone, do not worry. The Echo does not strike me often, nor cause me any lasting harm. I regain consciousness within a handful of minutes, and surrounded by family of family, I would be safe from any danger.

And you needn't be a 'god' to do such a thing. This is not my first experience with something similar.
