Haven't our powers been taken away, though?

Re: 5

[ohgodno]

The important powers have not! Nonetheless, now that I have settled back into my good graces...

God has no fear of death, because death is only a tactic used to incite fear into us. If you believe in me, you do not have to fear death!

Actually, I think it'd be better for us to consider their deal. We should get back on track - this is a game, isn't it?

Re: 5

[ohgodno]

It is a game, but it is also a performance for our beloved fans and followers. It would bore them to tears if we lowly accepted our fate as pawns in their war machine, don't you think?

Re: 5

[constellationprize]

I don't know.

Re: 5

[ohgodno]

What do you mean?

Re: 5

[constellationprize]

Would it really be boring?

And if we try to escape, we'll be executed for sure - it doesn't worry me, but I think it might frighten our fans.

Dear Aradia, you seem to say that as though there are far less dastardly things taking place in other games. We watched a man burn to death just recently!

He is fine now though.

In more ways than one.

[constellationprize]

I've missed them, but those games are like that from the start, aren't they?

[ohgodno]

Of course. We were given a rebellious child and a room you thought was a closet. In that vain of thinking, doesn't that mean we were destined to fall into despair? Even God feels that right now, that this might have been the way it was meant to be.

Even though I do not think our daughter should have been outright given a knife.

[constellationprize]

But the dilemmas are all open-ended, so we must have had a choice . . .

[ hmmm ]

Why don't we ask her what she wants?

[ohgodno]

We may as well. She will probably want to commit sin.

[constellationprize]

That's not a very nice thing to say about our child, is it . . . ?

[ohgodno]

But am I wrong?

[constellationprize]

What does "sin" mean to you?

[ohgodno]

Right now it is committing a crime that is of no benefit to God, for God Herself decrees that anything done in a way that does not bestrew Her faith or glory is merely a waste of time.





In other words, if I do not like it, and it inconveniences me, it is probably a sin.

Annnnd everything is okay now because she said she loves me.

[constellationprize]

Oh, okay.

If she's interested in it, I think I have an idea. It doesn't involve escaping like you want, but if she gets close to the monarchy, then she would have an easier time becoming a god like she wants.

[ohgodno]

What is your idea?

[constellationprize]

That was it! I can think of more particulars, but it would depend on what happened, I think... For instance, if she joined the military - she's strong, so that would be a good choice - she could catch the monarchy's eye that way. If she managed to marry a noble or the prince, then that would make things easier.

Or she could do something else... it'd help if her charm were higher, I think...

[ohgodno]

If she is so strong, they would likely prefer to keep her in the military where her brute can be utilized fully. At least, if I had a military, that is what I would do.

[constellationprize]

That's true...

Maybe we should ask what else we can do.

[ohgodno]

We simply have to make our child into a God.
