Oh, harm? There's been no harm. Everything is going perfectly fine for the people around you, Istredd. Why would anything possibly be wrong?
"Unfortunately the knowledge we have on the gods is extremely limited courtesy of Thorne's control of our information." How many gods were there? What did they all represent? Were they fueled by Abraxas? Did they need followers or did they simply need to be believed in? Or were they all Summoned to just be given to the gods as sustenance instead of the natives?
Lucifer could theorize for days.
"The Singularity and the gods have to be connected," he says. "I don't see a possibility where they aren't. If even we're connected, and we're considered alien to this world, then so must they. Why those gods?" he echoes, humming.
He taps a finger to his chin. From what he's experienced it isn't as though the gods arrival has been a blessing to anyone but the Summoned using their abilities, and even that is like... chasing a fix. Positive reinforcement for afflictions. Do Bad, Be Rewarded.
You know, exactly the kind of thing someone like Lucifer shouldn't have.
"Strife," he starts to say, then shakes his head, smirks, and continues, "Death, War, Pestilence, Famine. We've started into this little war. And maybe that's just it." He steps towards Istredd, grinning. "How about it, history nerd? When was the last time war broke out here? Maybe there was sign of the gods then, too."
