Eh?? Ah... I don't know. That's humanity's choice, not ours. There's gods for plenty of things. Tsukuyomi angered Amaterasu, who watches over the sun, so they just happen to be the one that was banned to never share the sky with one another.

[SHRUGS...

Still, that's hardly the point of this conversation. Whether it makes sense or not, it's still DONE something.]

...Is there any kind of cure? I mean... it sounds less like a wound and more like a curse, but...

You can't be stuck with that forever... can you?

[Aren’t the sun and moon in the same sky… That doesn’t make any sense… He’s also never heard of there being more then one God, but Owen’s familiarity with religion begins and ends with Riquet and that’s a very… particular view.

Anyways.]

If there was, do you think it would still be happening?

[Ugh.

Owen knows that some of them have had their injuries temporarily relieved by the Sage - Akira has helped Mithra sleep and Oz cast magic at night, but it’s inconsistent. There was no helping Cain or Bradley, and Owen had to step in and save the Sage from Heathcliff…

He hasn’t asked for help, but it doesn’t seem there’s much point in trying when there are so many questions that still need to be answered.]

…It won’t be forever. I just don’t know what will fix it yet.

[He hums his understanding. Or, well, as best of an understanding as he can manage. If Owen doesn't know, it's not like asking more questions will help.]

...You said you were conscripted, right? By who? Are wizards the only ones that can fight something that big?

[sicklysweet]

The Sage. I didn't really speak with the one that summoned me, though.

[He props himself back up, sticking out his tongue to show Otegine the mark on it. It's not like he can really hide it, but he also doesn't make a habit of pointing it out all the time. He has no idea how much attention Otegine's been paying to his mouth, so he might not have noticed.]

See this? It marks me as one of the wizards chosen by the Sage. I don't really know what the ceremony is like because I've never watched it myself.

[And why would he want to?]

I don't think anyone else can really do anything. Humans don't have the means no matter how great they think their magic technology is, and all of the strongest wizards in the world have already been chosen to be a Sage's wizard. It's not like there's anyone else out there that could turn the tide against the Great Calamity.
