Up at the top of the world :o

Menphina is not angry with Hermes, she wishes they had not had to fight to get to this point.

(This post got JUST long enough that I'm gonna compress it)

It's very interesting how the Meteia view this thought process as an awful one. To me, the idea that you know you tried your best is still a comfort.

Ahhh...and so the cause of it all is made 100% clear... [screams]

Yes, let's bring back the "beautiful" arc words on death one more time here.

Menphina and S'ria can understand where this reasoning came from -- Hermes clearly feels a degree of empathy for non-humanoid creatures that rivals or surpasses his empathy for his own species. The sense of unfairness he's felt his whole life is finally swinging around here -- "why should we be different?"

Menphina is more sympathetic to this than S'ria is, though. A choice made impossibly long ago, in a society with beliefs wholly unlike what he knows, leading to what is happening to his own home now? It isn't as though he finds the Ancients deserving of what they've accidentally cultivated, but this has nothing to do with the people suffering in S'ria's time now.

Ahh, this is really still the same ultimatum we're dealing with in the current now,,,,
