Chapter 7 - Servitude for Knowledge?

After our little awkward pause, my conversation with the crow god continued.

Sorry, I don't really wish to interrupt you, but who are the other gods that have earth under surveillance?

I mean, you mentioned before that earth is under surveillance by some of your siblings, Gabriel being the strongest. What about the others?

So our souls are just toys to them? Damn. But, honestly, how am I capable of knowing why gods do stuff? Isn't that basically impossible?

Well, I guess that the most popular child would take the best toys for himself. If he decides not to share his toys, then the other children would play with what was left.

So heaven does exist.

Wow, is that situation the same for other planets?

On second thought, no.

But earth is not the only planet that has these gods have under surveillance, right?

Wow.

...

So, what is the purpose for the existence of lim... Wait, don't answer that. Is limbo the place where those souls are being sent, if even the other gods don't take a liking to those. Am I correct?

Wait, then why did no one try to take me in?

Why am I feeling even worse now?

Hey!

You mean...

Ok, I guess I should not be a hero next time, or I could just anger another god.

Wait, wait, wait wait.

<... huh, what now? Wait, stop, you wish to know what that ball of light was that you saw in limbo, correct? That was, I said, a soul of a champion. End of the discussion.>

But what was that throne room? How did I get there? What was that metallic bird? What...

But I just got here...

If I?

...

What?
