Tell me what cool fact you know about me besides the fact that I, and I quote "kick ass for the Lord". And sure, you might be affiliated with the Underworld, but I don't know if that makes you some kind of Greek myth buff or some kind of necromancer. Details are left out, see?
I do find the talent of being a thorn in others' sides interesting as well, but your point is taken.
[a sigh, as he waves a hand. this, he thinks, is fine enough to tell.]
Greek is unfamiliar, but the Underworld is the realm of aether existing both within and without the world. As water falls to the seas and rises again to the skies, so too is it an integral part of the cycle-- the realm to which departed souls return.
[there is your context, hansa.]
And for your part, just what Lord is it that you serve?
Even where I come from, there are multiple religions. A few, like Hinduism, worship multiple gods. The one I follow only acknowledges that God is the only god, and has always been the only god.
He simply was. In the beginning, God created the heaven and the earth, and all living things in six days, and rested on the seventh. He always existed, and will always exist.

That too. They can go hand in hand. But I guess to you, Mr. Long-term Planning, I guess this seems like incredibly sloppy work on their part.
no subject
[he is still not over the unfortunate first message.]
From what we have seen of them so far, their organization remains just as poor.
no subject
[Hansa taps at his chin.]
Your opinion, I suppose. Do you think there's someone else pulling the strings here?
no subject
[they manifested the will of a star-- why could this strange place not have its own too? ]
But it seems it does not communicate with them in a very straightforward manner.
no subject
[Like the world, taking on its own action...he supposes that could occur.]
So our true captor is this world. How quaint. Nice to know that the cage we're in could also have its own sentience.
no subject
[the world itself containing them would make it truly impossible to go any further.]
What more did you learn from yours?
no subject
[How convenient is that?]
How irritating. You'd think if they were so desperate they would've started us on the hunt the first day.
no subject
[there was a mention of some other mess with the rest of them, or something like that, wasn't there...]
And so we are left to wait once more, subject to such whims.
no subject
[He gestures to Emet.]
Well, you can do a lot of waiting. I can't, but...I guess we can't make any big moves until we find out more. Pity.
no subject
[he may be used to it, but that doesn't mean he likes it in this situation.]
My expectations remain low as well, and I pray they are not lowered further.
no subject
[It's obviously meant to be a tease not meant to offend.]
Say, do you believe it when they say this whole thing about memories? Some people I've talked to are worried we might lose some of ours.
no subject
They seem convinced of it, but I will believe it when it happens. There is yet nothing to say it will certainly be a problem.
[it should be harder to affect his own.
then again, it should be impossible to trap him here.]
no subject
[You never know!]
Maybe we should share cool facts about ourselves to trade just in case one of use loses their marbles.
no subject
[he gestures to the device in his hand, there.]

no subject
[And he does actually mean that. It's a nice and rather interesting way to explain that concept, though he believes in another afterlife entirely.]
I see. So you feel some kindred spirit with this realm of sorts, hm? Or is it more with the souls that reside there?
[The question makes him smile slightly, because he has a feeling his answer will confuse this man.]
Just the one and only Lord, my God.
no subject
[it's so dull, here. even moreso than the broken source-- a depressing sight, overall.
he doesn't linger on the thought, glancing up to look hansa over.]
Your world has only the one, then? How curious.
no subject
[He nods at the reply - its exactly as he suspected. For some reason, monotheism doesn't seem to be very prevalent in all the other worlds.]
Asking a question like that is bordering on blasphemy... [And a smirk.] But, yes. Just the one.
no subject
[different worlds, different deities... and this is even a separate instance from still others he's been told of. interesting.]
The only one in existence at all, or are they the only one you and yours acknowledge as true?
no subject
[He lightly shrugs.]
Even where I come from, there are multiple religions. A few, like Hinduism, worship multiple gods. The one I follow only acknowledges that God is the only god, and has always been the only god.
no subject
[less ancient, less powerful, and less deserving, when it comes to the primals mortals know.]
You say 'has always been' the only god-- in what manner were they created, if at all?
no subject
He simply was. In the beginning, God created the heaven and the earth, and all living things in six days, and rested on the seventh. He always existed, and will always exist.
no subject
[most likely lost to time, then, just as the origins of zodiark and hydaelyn were.]
no subject
We never had tales of His creation. It is what it is.
