You should have just killed me.
[Did you expect her to be thankful? Delight's text post comes a little belatedly after the poll has been closed and isn't quite the pleasant cheeriness that some of you have come to expect from her.]
I died the moment you saved Hope. We all did. This is just prolonging the inevitable.
I don't much care what you think of my decision or my actions. I tried to save what I could. I planned Hope's assassination for months, negotiated with the beings that killed everything I knew, traded the life of someone I adore very much- all to save my other allies and to save you. This was not a decision made quickly or lightly and I will not be made to regret doing what I felt was right.
I see now that I was too optimistic. You could not be made to lay down your weapons for a more peaceful arrangement- I suppose I should have known better, considering how antagonistic you've been. Still, I had to at least try. Nobody else would.
There's nothing more to say, save for this- don't rely on the other gods to save you. Fear will turn his back at the first opportunity and Hope will not fight alongside you. The others will use you how they see fit. What opportunity for survival you may have had with the Null has faded now. You're on your own.
