Your character's worst enemy has now been brought to the tower. (For optional extra horrible, they're your character's assigned roommate.)

React. Cling to other characters for comfort. Et cetera.

My Lord, there are more options than that. This war has no use in this place, and any fighting amongst ourselves will only make it easier for Ruana to oppress us, all of us, even you.

*Enoch takes a deep breath and lets it out. He continues speaking, his head still respectfully bowed, still kneeling before the deity.*

Even if I hear their words and feel for their plights, even if I feel affection for them, it does not change that I have nothing but love and respect for you, Lord. You need only look at the network here to see that hearing of what happened to you in your own world pained me greatly. I may disagree with your motives and methods, but you are still the Divine Father, and for that, I could never bring myself to turn against you.

*His even tone had been steadily falling apart, and it is all he can do to maintain his formal wording as he finally breaks down, his tone more openly pleading.*

But I can ally with the both of you, because our fight is not with one another here. What are we fighting over, souls that are not yours? An Earth that is dead? We must remedy everything first. And it is why I beg of you, to consider that the rulers of this world have no regard to what existed between the people here. The rulers of this world harm us all equally and we must all rise against it before we can consider animosity towards one another. It is not safe to war here. Please, my Lord!

*He's openly crying now, his body shaking as he thinks of everything everyone has worked towards. Of what the likes of Ganon have already interfered with...Of the fact that he might have instead sealed a version of God's hatred for him. Could he bear to have God hate him?*

Please...

[Not once in all of that does YHWH's expression change from its steely gaze. Not to pity, or to sympathy, or anything but hard disgust.]

You would forgive the worst of sins to suit your own purposes. I need no peace with those who hate Me nor do I seek it with those who pity them.

Leave My presence before I remove you, son of Jared.

When have I said they were only my own purposes? When have I said anything other than that this is for the good of all of us?

*For a moment, Enoch is still. It had been a completely emotional outburst, and once he'd started speaking, he couldn't stop himself.

Shakily, he stands.* ...I hope you'll see for yourself, Lord, how meaningless this feud is under these circumstances.

*And he lowers his head, his voice softer.*

Praise to your name, your love and mercy. *And only that, he thinks, turning without lifting his head and beginning to walk away. A painful chill was slowly spreading from the inside out, and if he had been frightened of inducing an attack, he now no longer cared.*

[After Enoch leaves, Aleph will come find him shortly thereafter.] How'd it go...?

[At least he's alive.]

[warriorscribe]

*Enoch stops when he hears Aleph's voice. A moment too long later, his words register and Enoch shakes his head.*

I think the war is too ingrained in Him. He cannot let it go.

[alephbet]

Are you alright?

[It doesn't take a genius to tell Enoch took it hard, and Aleph's worried even more now...]

[warriorscribe]

*Enoch again shakes his head.* ...I need some time.

*Time he intends to spend with Lucifel or Raphael if he can't find his guardian.*

[alephbet]

Take your time. I'm sorry for whatever part of this I'm responsible for.

[warriorscribe]

You're not responsible for anything...

[alephbet]

...All right. Take care of yourself, at least.
