>Jericho, I'm not sure there's any reason to let him take you. You can't drown, right? You're a mummy. No idea what the "ripped to shreds" bit is about. It's just water.
Just water? It’s about four times as much water as there’s actual space down here coming through and the only way out currently is a lot smaller then you… of course, the sheer force will probably push you through it, but you won’t come out in the same shape…
I got your point… yes, help would be ap-
And don’t forget your dear father. You might not need to breathe, but he does.
>Coming from you that's particularly high praise, Bob.
Oh, please, don’t try to flatter yourself too much…
>Where did those memories that Justice had of you having a deep hatred for mortals and scouring the world in flame after taking enough mortals through the gate to keep you and yours fed come from?
… … …
…you’re not going to tell me, ar-
Truth is a terrible thing, is it not? Truth is what divide nations, ends relations and cause so much slaughter, a lot more then lies have ever done.
…so it’s the truth?
In a sense, yes… but time change things… time change most things… when we first came here, you were nothing but a resource to harvest and deny the enemy to get. We have cleansed the earth of life more times than I can remember, but so has these rebel… of course, they did it more out of revenge while we did it out of precaution. So, yes… I’ve burned the world… Justice has burned the world… but… seeing the world… living here for so long… it has changed us. Before you were a resource to be exploited, now you are a people to be preserved.
>Justice said that you hated mortals.
Don’t get me wrong, I do see most of you as beneath me, but I do not hate you… not anymore… well, I do feel a bit of… jealousy, actually…
Jealousy?
Tell me, Jericho, what is better? To be born with a choice of good or evil, or being created evil and choosing good? What do you think is simpler?
…wait… you were…
The gods created us to be their enemy, to devour your world if they failed to stop us… we are an enemy created for sports… you, on the other hand, were created to be free…
>Was what Justice said about mortals corrupting daemons just as much as the daemons corrupt mortals true?
A feeble mind is easy to sway…
So…
:MaksedManRUST: Time does not make your mind stronger… it only makes it more fragile…
>Is your personality being corrupted by that human you're possessing, but towards benevolence instead of hate?
…I am not possessing a human… or anyone else who really have a will to force upon me.
>And is it true that you were the one who corrupted Red?
…yes.
What? Why?
Because at the time I despised you and wished for your extinction. I have to say, I do kind of regret that decision.
…then why did you make him blabber about freeing slaves?
To make them believe Justice did it… that, on the other hand, I don’t regret.
>I wonder, do the daemons find it hard to forgive? That they remember all the pain and suffering they've inflicted on each other through the cycles and have a tough time letting go?
You can hold a feud for generation, keeping it in the blood and nation for hundreds of years. We are eternal, with the ability to only forget enough to be incapable to see our own wrongs… you can guess how that works out.
>I'm glad you aren't upset over it. Remember, our goal is the Coin's Edge. We don't want to destroy demons, nor do we want to destroy mortals.
…I simply want to see the gate closed again so I can go home…
>We've heard from multiple sources that once the gates are closed, or destroyed, there are unexpected consequences.
There is always consequences you never see coming… the only thing you can do is to plan for the worst.
>Justice said his goal was to seal the Daemon Realm as well, so what is it your side and theirs are fighting over in this world?
Power over our realm. You are the life blood of it… and the one who claims you claims it.
>we've heard the idea of creating Undead Energy Sources out of mindless undead and sending enough of them through the gate to the Daemon Realm to feed all the daemons, which sounds totally workable to me. Given enough years we could collect the needed dead from the regular birth-death cycle to make all the undead for the plan.
The problem is that both sides needs that energy to win this war, so both will be rather… unwilling to wait so long for it.
>...And, I want to ask this just to know for sure: Was Eliraz's fate set in stone as soon as we saw he was a ghoul nine months from now?
How he ended up was, but the how, when and what wasn’t. Personally I bet on his idiot brother would do him in down here, but that prince of yours was stupider then I gave him credit for.
Hey, don’t call him that!
…very well… but give a rose another name…
>Do you remember the Creator?
…who?
>Bob, what do you see in the future, beyond where this cycle ends? Do you even see anything there?
I’m sorry but… there’s only darkness there.
>Why is it that the daemons of both factions dislike all the "artificial god" players so much?
…going by how fast that light is approaching, I say we don’t have time for a history lesson. Let's just say, the first demon war did not go as you think it did… we hate you because you bested us and the rebel scum hate you because you betrayed them. I do hope you can figure out what’s wrong with the story you know from that… oh, and this will be the last time we talk for a long time so… I just wanted to say… It’s been nice knowing you, Teal… Jericho… I will miss these talks… goodbye.
Goodb-
*Slursh!*
Look out!
