[He tsks.]

'Tis your fault for giving me such a powerful tool at my disposal.

As if I could not wield the same weapon against you.

I think I my heart would stop if I saw you in such a state in earnest.

It is good I'm not prone to such fits of melancholy then, isn't it?

If you need to express such emotions, far it be it from me to tell you not to. You simply tend to find solutions and have other tactics for manipulation you bring to bear.

I shall take that as a compliment.

I admire you, Lahabrea. That was never in question. Though your methods do differ from my own.

[That earnestness startles a blush out of him.]

We both have our strengths. I could never be as good at building up others in the subtle ways you do.

We are simply proof that different we may be, harmony is always possible. I wonder if any other society would reach such peeks.

I have my doubts that mortals can truly achieve it.

As do I. Their short lives do spur them to leave their mark in both good ways and bad.

I concede that some metals are extraordinary. But it is the rest that hold them back from achieving anything. Energy if they do succeed in greatness, it only takes a handful of centuries for the details to be forgotten and mythologized.

As far as I can discern this holds across all mortal worlds.

Some have terrible gods that hardly do them any favors.

I would say that would be most, from observation.

Dreadful, isn’t it?

[He leans dramatically against Lahabrea.]

But luckily not our problem. As if we don’t have enough to handle.

[He chuckles and brushes his knuckles over the back of Emet's neck.]

Not our problem indeed. And thank the dark for that. We've enough on our plate. Where would you find the time to nap?

I would require you to get more followers. Simple as that.

But it feels more intimate with just us. Close as we have all become.

Indeed. It is... nice this way. Though there is less that we can cover, a scant handful as we are.

And we will adapt as we always do.

[He's going to give up scrapbooking at this point and just lay his head in Lahabrea's lap.]

If luck would have it, you won't need to teach anyone how to summon any more Primals and I'll never have to build another kingdom.

[He brushes his fingers through Emet's hair, sighing.]

What a strange thought. Not having to do such things.

Though I can think of a few mortals worlds that might be improved by a primal.

[He's probably joking.]

[He bumps shoulders lightly.]

That will always be the case, but if you go chasing that you will never retire, mortals being what they are.
