More questions for the collection

Alexis swiftly moved back to her hideout as suggested. With another slew of new questions to add to the pile.

What an interesting reaction to witness after a very unexpectedly peaceful exchange. So the Ozainae had not quite forgotten the lost goddess, but they feared her very name? Why was that? Was she an ‘evil’ entity? How so?
Or … was it something else?

Life, Death, Fate. From what she had gathered so far, the Twin Gods represented Life and Death. So did that make her Fate? Well. She could definitely get behind cursing ‘fate’.

She chuckled darkly to herself, as she found her way back to the cavern below the Red Fort.

Her weariness was chased away by the happenings of the night, at least for now. Alexis reignited her fire and looked at the mural with what she had learned in mind. A goddess buried, her power used to create another being, bonds broken by the Ichor of Solitude. So that might have been the very intention of the Ozainae of old. To what end? To ‘capture’ fate? Free themselves of it?

Heck if she knew. Who for goodness’s sake did think it was a brilliant idea to set a foreigner with zero knowledge of this land and its history on a task like this? And yet both Tar and her were just that. Maybe that was actually intentional? To use those who had no knowledge of their own to draw upon, no preconceptions and experiences to influence their perception of what they learned along the way?

She thought back to what she had been shown the first time she sat below the obelisk. Balance, so the worlds may survive the tides of the Ether. Were the three deities part of that balance? If so, what impact did one of them fallen and buried beneath the sand have? Had that immortal being been made to take her place? Now servant to the remaining two, rather than their equal?

The mercenary quietly groaned. Here she went again, making her own head spin with wild theories. Desperately trying to understand. She couldn’t. She knew. All this went way over her head.

Sighing, she resigned herself to turn in for the night. Maybe, if Agizul -somehow- really proved to be willing to help her, a few of those ever accumulating question might be answered tomorrow.
Leading to yet another set of new ones, no doubt.
