Esecutore
Returning to you and the rest of your merry band - merriness may vary - as the group shows up at their next temple: a ruined church of the Messenger religion.
Esecutore
At least.. it’s supposed to be ruined. There are ruins, but the main building seems to be well kept. Huh. How mysterious.
Justica
Here we are. It looks deserted..
Protagonist
Not surprising. After mom took over and she rewrote the holy book there weren’t that many people still followed it.
Justica
Oh, right… Lumi made Archcardinal when we were kids, didn’t she. And then to lose her entire religion.. I’m sorry that happened.
Protagonist
Pfft. It’s fine. I never gave a sh*t about that stuff anyway. After mom actually met Infinel she update the texts and people realized that the Eternals weren’t gods.
You
1. Wait I thought they were gods.
2. Right, just a higher form of existence with unimaginable reality-altering powers that work in mysterious ways, some deciding to guide the populace as enigmatic superbeings. But not gods.
3. Your mom might have given a sh*t about it, to be fair.
4. Is there a codex I could read this stuff in?
Protagonist
Exactly. Anyway she was fine with it. Gave her time for all her other hobbies.
Justica
I remember she was an incredible dancer.
Protagonist
Gay.
Justica
Gross.
Protagonist
What, were you hoping after breaking up with me you would go after my mom? Was that it? Wanted a twofer?
Justica
You are such an..
Protagonist
It’s okay Justy. You can say “ass”. Or even “asshole.” It’s not really a swear word.
Justica
I was going to say “immature jerk” but I thought it was too mean.
