The Firstforged claim they're some kind of gods. What an exaggeration that is.

[Thank you, Kagerou. And don't you sound bitter today. Granted, he's been bitter about all this since Perceptor vanished... but recently, everything has sort of come to a head. He can't keep it down anymore.]

They want us to build. They want us to run their world, and behave like peaceable little children.

And what do we get in return?

Murdered. Lied to. Misdirected. Our work ruined. Criminals running amok. Empty promises.

[As he says the last words, his fingers clench around his arm, around the Glyph.]

They want us to trust them -- but these Firstforged are nothing like they say they are. They tell us they can't control who leaves and who stays, but, then they turn around and tell us we're safe with their markings! They don't care one bit, what happens to us! If they did...

[If they did, I would be able to do what I was promised I could...]

[His hand lifts, revealing the very elaborate, intricate Glyph -- his status is showing, and boy does he look unhappy about it.]


If their reward for our service is loss and death, I would rather not have their mark at all!

Obviously. Although, this place is technically a Theocracy.

Allow me to enlighten you, my uncultured friends. [Knock Out clears his voice and then recites a definition you can find in almost any dictionary.]

Oligarchy: An oligarchy is a form of government in which most of the political power effectively rests with a small segment of society, typically the people who have the most wealth, military strength, ruthlessness or political influence.

And Theocracy: A theocracy is a government operated under divine rule, or the pretense of divine rule. In practice, this term refers to a government operated by religious authorities who claim unlimited power in the name of God or other supernatural forces.

This is the world we live in. Learn how to deal with it because it's not going to change no matter how whinny you are.

Yes, you are. Booohooo things aren't how I want them to be. I feel so miserable even though I live a relatively free and sane existence. Woe is me.

[Knock Out doesn't do sympathy, sorry Kagerou.]

Because the ones in charge are the ones who make the rules.

You are not as miserable as you could be either.

[They're robots. Robots always have issues, it's a must. Some more than others, though.]

Heh. You don't understand power, don't you? It's more interesting to see others try and fail than never allowe them to try at all. It's what causes the superiority feeling.
