Is that what you believe, Kidagakash? That it is somehow more "fair" when mortals fight and commit atrocities against one another, as opposed to when gods do it? That all wars are fought between enemies of equal power and prowess?
[ Pathetic. Laughable. ]
You wouldn't consider the perspective of a goddess who obliterated an entire race of people, but you would excuse the power of Servants, whose destructive might can be just as great, for the simple fact that we were "human once"?
[ His words are frigid. Clearly, he sees nothing about his past humanity that makes him more understandable or less monstrous. ]
I excuse nothing. We are not here to impose our own sense of justice based on events we did not experience firsthand. The role of guardians, of those who maintain timelines, is to ensure balance.
It may very well be that both goddesses must die so this world can continue to exist. It may also very well be that should both goddesses be exterminated, the world would fall apart. Or that the Nalawi will survive, become a more technological people, and eventually, in thousands of years, become capable of killing each other more effectively than Nalanni ever could.
[ Humans sure are good at it these days. Atom bombs and all. ]
Where will your crusade for justice be then, Kidagakash? What good will your outrage do you when for every injustice you seek to right, ten more emerge?
Seek her head if you will, but do not condemn the rest of us for taking a more cautious approach.
