[Though it's a horrible enough concept for Shun having a close friend as a shinki, he knows it can't be any better of a thought for someone who's a shinki themselves. But as much as it's difficult to consider, it has to be said. They can hope for the better option, but it's not always going to be the case.

After a moment of consideration, though, Shun's expression becomes a little less disturbed.]

It at least seems like most of the new gods prefer their shinki this way. I have seen one network post where someone tried to find a way to strip their shinki of "inconvenient" emotions, but most people treated the god involved with the derision he deserved.

[In response to the question, he shakes his head. He's not fully certain of what happens to freed shinki, but he knows they don't move on.]

As far as I know, they wander until they find another god to name them and take them in. Some of the new ones ask for certain gods to take them in before or after they're released.
