A shift in power, and yet no changes. Surprising? I think not.

Work has been ridiculously pointless these days. I ask you, Purgatorium, what good are all these crime-fighting organizations when we don't seem to succeed at all and there is no crime to fight?

In a place as hopeless as this hell, what is there really left to do? Wouldn't every human being strive for more comfort and safety? Then why do at least 70% of this place live on the lower level, where it isn't safe and housing is nearly worthless? Is it the will for punishment? Are you punishing yourself by staying here and doing nothing?

If there is any truth to the theories about the evolution of man, where are the people who try to work for a better tomorrow? Those who fight against the odds, just so they will achieve what they yearn for?

Everyone in this place has given up hope when it is supposedly human nature to strive, strive and strive. A hand smacking you down should only make you get up once again. Isn't that how man has managed to come this far in this universe? Trying to build. Trying to invent. Regardless of all higher powers that try to force you down... is it fear? Fear of God, that stops everyone from even trying?

I once knew a man who conquered that fear... who wasn't afraid to work towards his goal. Was he really the only one in this universe to have that courage?

Or perhaps, all of this is a farce. Maybe none of you are really alive here but merely images this hell has produced for me. My own personal hell. It does sound sort of lovely, doesn't it?

There are- but 'taking care of' the beings who control this place is another matter all together. I haven't tested their boundaries myself- but all connotations of religion and everything else aside- we seem to be dealing with beings that are omniscient and omnipotent within this world.

[[Private//Unhackable and hoping this includes the gods]]
But If there is a chink in their armor- I'm far from being willing to exploit it. I don't plan on going out and actively testing them to find it though. Always preferred a more cautious approach.

Again, trying and succeeding are two different things. If I were to disperse for trying to overthrow the gods or whatever it is that I'll end up doing, at least I will have tried. Only those who try have a chance to find out more.

...I'm worried because I think I'm starting to like you.

I'd be perfectly willing to try- once I've got all the information I think I'll be able to get.

...Excuse me? 'Starting to like me?' I don't believe there is any reason why you should.

I would like to know what that new goddess is going to do. Only then it is wise to try anything at all.

I like your way of thinking.

Agreed. And I'm always in the mood to do some digging if you'd like a co-conspirator.
