Mortal opinions

When you try to apply a mortal definition to anything, it is
perfectly acceptable, until that mortal definition conflicts
with the definition of an Immortal. Your definition of peace
is mortal and thus fallible, compared to the definition of
peace according to Oneiros.

The same goes for Stratos, who tried to apply definitions of
peace taken from a dictionary--Eschereheye, as a devoted ser-
vant of Oneiros, is going to be more knowledgeable about the
true definition of peace than Stratos is, as Stratos is using
a definition created by a mortal.

If you look into the archives of history, you'll notice that
Morpheus once tried to apply a mortal definition of chivalry,
which contradicted that of Sarapis, the Creator of All. It is
simply not possible to contradict a God.

Questioning and analyzing the nature of life is not wrong, but
when a God flatly states His stance, the true stance, further
questioning and contradiction is obviously intended as a grave
insult to the deity, and must not be allowed.

A renewal of faith in all living beings is my goal, and you are
perilously close to placing yourself in direct opposition to me,
with your motto of, "Believe nothing, question everything."
