What, so now we're having a war? Why? For the hell of it? 'Cause I'd bet money that this is a classic example of a pointless war. Tch... These deities are sick bastards.

And I'm really sick of this city smelling like blood. I can't stand it.

Looks a lot like it's "for the hell of it". At least so far I can discern no other reason - as with all curses. And it's gotta be a curse.

The rulers are seen as god-like figures but they don't have the supernatural powers of a god. They still only have the capabilities of a human, except for the immortality bit.

Yup.

Yeah, I figured. ... wait, and everyone else expects them to be god-like?

Yes, because they are in the eyes of the common people.

Hmm... well, I guess I can sort of see where they're coming from. Everyone wants their ruler to make the right choises, ideally always.

Not only that, but in the class system in my world rulers are the second highest ranking. They're right below the gods themselves, which technically makes them the highest power. So... they're basically semi-mortal gods.

Kirin are similar, but we serve the rulers. So we're not really as high.

Yeah, I got that much... so that only makes it worse.

Huh?

... Oh. Are you thinking about how that must put pressure on Youko?

revengeisalie November 19 2009, 09:46:39 UTC
Yes, that too.

What else is on your mind?

Uhm, just wondering what your world is like. You all have told me a lot about it, and yet I only know a small piece of the puzzle.

kirinofen November 20 2009, 17:31:06 UTC
Oh? I could teach you all about it if you want. I've got five hundred years of history behind me after all. And I still teach Youko things every now and then.

That would be interesting! I only don't know if I'll have the time.

kirinofen November 20 2009, 18:45:28 UTC
No time? What the heck are you doing that you can't spare an hour or two during the day?

revengeisalie November 20 2009, 19:03:25 UTC
Working, doing household chores, research... ? Though I could certainly spare some time every now and then.

Oh. [He forgets people actual do productive things here.]

Only if you want. I was just offering.
