Lia listened to him intently as he continued to talk. She loved the folklores and legends that were told from one person to another. Even the oracles themselves seemed to have some discrepancies amongst them, but it was all fascinating to the young vixen. Maybe it was the possibility of the fantasy or illusion of it all since the original oracles were no longer around for the most part. Even still, it wasn't as if the gods would tell them what was correct or what was wrong.
She glanced at him noticing his attention was solely on her and no longer split between the letter. It made her slightly happen in an odd sort of manner. She thought about the questions for a few moments as she tried to consider it. "I do. I mean it is possible to refute that they all do not exist and the gods are an elaborate figment of our imaginations passed down through the generations, but I believe in them. It seems too hard to put together the 'fake' accounts of these gods much less have oracles who are their vessels. Maybe it is all an elaborate illusion created by the magic we have all been granted and sometimes I do doubt them myself, but I guess it's easier to believe in a higher power than ourselves than to imagine they do not exist at all."
It was an odd subject for her. She did believe in them, but didn't sometimes. She felt as if the gods were supposed to watch over their respective creatures, but then again she felt neglected. Wouldn't they have helped her when she was younger? All the times she prayed to the gods for help, but nothing? Maybe it was due to their gods' affinity was over. Maybe she just wasn't worth help. Whatever the case, she tried to remain positive about them. It was easier to cope with. "As for their control... Wouldn't they all be equal? I mean Jaelani and Akros were equal in all respects to one another. Wouldn't their segmented selves be as well? It's a balancing act. If they weren't all balanced, then maybe our war with the angels would have ended by now."
It was true. If one of the sides was more powerful than the other, this war wouldn't have been so dragged out and they would have had a victor. However, they were equal in all ways. Angels and demons were a clear example of this. "As for the oracles... I would love to meet them. Maybe if we're lucky we can see Vaerath's oracle?" She smiled at him. Her innocence was so pure. It was clear she was excited about the festival, but more so about spending some quality time with him beyond the castle's walls.
