Helping the Fire God is always a one sided affair, you do things for her or you find yourself burning alive. It's very very one sided. - Chronicles of Lorentino
"So you'll probably want to go east." I hadn't been there a minute before the Fire God herself showed up. Which seemed dumb, why come with me at all and not just do it herself.
"I thought you said this was something you wanted me to do?"
"It is, this is merely a fragment of my power here to guide and aid as little as I can."
"Makes sense in your own twisted way." The Fire God smiled, at least she was wearing armor.
"As a word of warning I do report to the greater, so you know your snippy bullshit is not going unnoticed."
"I always hope my snippy bullshit is not going unnoticed." She smiled again, and I smiled though I didn't like the smell. The cathedral reeked of burnt corpses even though I couldn't see them. I didn't want to leave. I wanted to stay in there and just hope like things would work out without me.
"You don't have all your vast lifetime Trezlan lets get to this." I sneered now I knew why she sent a minder.
"I can see this will be a fun time." She said nothing and I stepped outside to a huge corpse fire. I didn't know what to expect in the five fires, but I didn't expect just bodies burning almost to the horizon. "Lovely place, what is this the lowest level of your punishment area?"
"Second tier actually, on the lower areas you couldn't even breathe."
"Joyous I'm glad you kept these little soul prisons even after it almost annihilated the galaxy."
"Bad people deserve to suffer eternally, isn't that one reason you cling to life like you do, wanting to avoid punishment for your crimes?"
"Guilty." I didn't even know what I was supposed to do really. I just started walking east (how the fire god knew it was freaking east when there was no sun or real sky will be left to madness). There was more corpse piles, but no anything else. I started to wonder what I was even supposed to be doing there when I saw morlatech bots. Lots of them.
"Robots here?"
"Exactly."
"But why?"
"Exactly." No that does not answer the stupid question! But as I was about to find out, the Fire God didn't know either!
