Even when he was part of the mortal world, his family and friends had considered his thoughts strange. Persephone seemed to think Adam was acceptable and bumped her head against his hand. "She does disappear occasionally, but I never thought she might have a connection to the mortal world except maybe to chase mice." He wasn't quite sure if she could be a person and a cat since she'd been with him for a long time, but it could be possible.

"I've never met a priestess. I was just told that one would find the temple." After waiting for so many centuries, Alec had assumed that the temple had been forgotten. "I don't have the ability to tend the line or to even see it. I can't see beyond the gate." That wouldn't be dangerous to admit. He still had ways of observing the mortal world so it wouldn't give others an advantage.

One of the other cats rubbed against his leg and Alec absentmindedly picked her up. Emily curled up against his chest and started to purr. "There was an Angel. He chose me to stay here. He's the one who told me that eventually the priestess would find a way here. It's a temple, but it's grown bigger over the centuries. There's gardens too, but I think those are for me not the temple."
