Suddenly who it is and what he's implying is remarkably clear to Ajora. The one he hosts is furious at this insolence, this ingratitude. Only because it it not yet time to reveal all to the mundane mortals, only this stays her from manifesting and delivering a vicious slap into respect. The priest is nearly shaking from the sheer power of the Scion's fury demanding to be unleashed. He realizes that Ultima would likely smite the man, simply to revive him again out of spite. And while he willingly became a vessel of flesh for her use, at the moment it is a terribly uncomfortable position in which to find himself. He's given himself to her will, for good or ill, and now he must betray nothing of the burning anger roiling within.
It is not yet, time, and so Ajora affects a warm and welcoming smile for the man needling for more. "I have found a deeper respect and understanding of my own faith, by following the path of the pilgrimage. To come humbly with nothing to offer but myself and my supplications has proven enlightening." That's not what Vayne's hoping to hear, he's quite certain, but feigning ignorance of more is demanded. And truth be told, he didn't find a vessel for Mateus which had been his hope in the first place. "If it is the light you seek, I fear I am but a man and servant of Faram, though gladly would I walk with you on the road of righteousness."
