...even if I am lonely, it's all the fault of these deities.

To them, everyone here is just like insects. It's obvious.

... How's that obvious?

[heliolatrous]

Because all they do is toy with everyone, like we aren't even worth it!

[aettir]

Do they do anything besides the curses?

[heliolatrous]

They bring people here and then send them back.

[aettir]

-shit, you're right. How long have they even been doing this for?

[heliolatrous]

Probably a long time.

[aettir]

And they still dump curses out every couple days...

[heliolatrous]

They're the worst.

[aettir]

Wait, no. There's no way I'm falling for that one!

[heliolatrous]

Falling for what one?

[aettir]

The second you explain how something could be worse, it happens!

[heliolatrous]

Why does everyone think that?

[aettir]

Maybe 'cause it's a cursed city run by gods out to get everybody in it.

[heliolatrous]

That doesn't mean they have to care about everything you say
