So, I found something today that caught my eye.

Apparently they have made a television show about my son. I don't know if I should be proud or not.

At any rate, if you wish to see...

My son happens to be the boy with the white hair. His name is Setsuna.

Ah, youth. If only it came with survival skills built in.

Do you think so?

Some might find that a rather confusing statement to utter to the lord of the Netherworld.

[secret_heart]

In a small way, perhaps.

It might also be confusing that the lord of Neatherworld would also choose to protect, even though he might also have his own ambitions, is this not a kindness? If God is incapable.

[starofchaos]

I may not love them, but I will not abandon them. That is the choice that I made.

...do not be mistaken. If mankind leads itself to destruction, it will be their own fault. But until that time, I will ensure their survival.

[secret_heart]

Ah...so if you do not love them why would you make that choice, to ensure their survival? Is it some form of resistance?

[starofchaos]

Because they belong to me.

And because-

-they are humans.

That is all I need.

Humanity is remarkable. Even among demons, humans are thought of with wonder and hatred, with curiosity and delight. There is naught more contradictory than they. They are but children compared to us, yet create things we could never imagine. They love, and breathe and change and hate.

They go from creation to destruction, from bringing joy to causing pain... and yet, they are wonderful.

What humanity needs is not to be purged, not to be yanked around on a chain. They simply need to remember the joy of life. The spirit of freedom. Birth, and death. Creation and destruction. To cast off the shackles they have placed upon their own souls.

It is not resistance any more than love. It is simply my desire to see them flourish alongside our kind.

[secret_heart]

Ah? I guess so...you'll pardon me if I'm forward, I like your passion, but I am also someone who has an academic interest in what makes anyone tick.

Sometimes I wonder if it's not a vicarious thing.

To tell the truth there is a debate here on Eden as to whether or not Earthians should live or be allowed to die.

That's why I'm asking.

[starofchaos]

Is that truly your decision to make?

To take charge over the existence of another race is a difficult decision. Whether or not you agree with them, you have your own place to live. You have no reason to control the Earth. You should look to solving your own problems before those of others.

If this is on an academic level, however... then I ask you this.

Do human lives have worth in your eyes?

[secret_heart]

It used to be, but with my position gone it is no longer in my hands. I didn't like nor did I dislike the Earthians...but I didn't want to fight the Earth either because it's what Lucifel wanted. That's why I took charge in the first place...it's not really my passion since I belong in the field of science.

Still...there is fear that humans could expand to destroy our own delicate existence because they are perfectly capable of destroying one another. There is also jealousy over their ability to breed and prosper even under difficult circumstances.

Do I feel human lives have worth? This is my opinion, then...

Well to me there is nothing more beautiful than love. We on Eden have that capacity, but we are unable to express it freely to just anyone. The fact that humans do...and the fact that it can take on many wondrous and unexpected forms...it gives them worth in my eyes.

[starofchaos]

Hm... I see.

It is that ability that interests me also.

Then, rather than destroying them, remove their ability to access Eden. Confine them to their own land.

If you are set on the path of destruction, then that too is freedom; it is the struggle for life that creates true beauty. Let it be decided by whichever is stronger.

[secret_heart]

Ah...well the thing is we are of two minds here on Eden so we've created a system Pluses and Minuses.

Confining might not be so simple, but Earth does have their own Black Angels so a survival of the fittest type deal might be what happens if Eden decides it ever wants to attack the Earth again.

[starofchaos]

It may be the only option. But if you have a way to travel from Eden to Earth, why not ensure you have somewhere to go if it turns sour?

[secret_heart]

I guess it's because Eden is our home...as for me my own choices are limited, I go where the Metatron takes me.

I've only been aware for about five years. How old are you?

[Don't you know not to ask a lady occasional crossdresser gentleman his age...]

[starofchaos]

You could always ask someone here to intercede.

[Video]

[starofchaos]

A considerable amount longer. You're very young.

[Video]

[heavenscorpse]

I'm really old, but I don't count being alive and not being able to think or have a free will.

[Video]

[starofchaos]

Then, should I say, your mind is very young.

[Video]

[heavenscorpse]

That one is definitely true.

[Video]

[starofchaos]

Everything must be quite new to you then.

[Video]

[heavenscorpse]

It is. It's all very exciting!

[Video]

[starofchaos]

Can you read? [The ever-important question.]

[Video]

[heavenscorpse]

Yes, I can.

[Video]

[starofchaos]

If you're interested in learning, I can acquire some books for you.

[Video]

[heavenscorpse]

That would be wonderful!

[Video]

[starofchaos]

Is there anything in particular you wish to learn about?
