ONE ❢ VIDEO

[The woman who appears on-screen does not look particularly angry, or even that getting angry is something she makes a habit of beyond possibly rolling her eyes when a barista writes her name wrong on a Starbucks cup. She's standing against a nondescript stone wall much like Hope was in his first broadcast.

After a moment, a mildly curious expression resolves itself into a perfectly pleasant smile that appears to be entirely sincere in nature.]

While I can't say I enjoyed having to be brought back at all, that was a wonderful welcome you creatures gave me and I wanted to thank you for it. It's like you couldn't even control how much rage you were expelling.

I see many of you have had a look at my armory, I hope you enjoy it. Keep up the good work and I'll keep you as well stocked as you keep me.

You aren't serious?

[ But she seems serious. The Inquisitor shakes her head incredulously. ]

We don't belong here. Your friends and even you feed off our energy. There are monsters and worse. Is that enough, or shall I go on?

And are you worse off for it? You seem to have quite a bit of emotions to spare and don't seem to feel less for supplying us. As for the monsters you all appear to be doing quite well, almost none of you have died.

It's more than we don't want to be powering gods who could care less about us, one of which who actively threatens us.

[ "Almost none of you have died." Her expression sours. ]

You really don't understand humans, do you? Any of you...

We all have to deal with less than ideal situations. It's what brings us all together.

And what part of this is "less than ideal" for you, exactly? Being a god and in no immediate danger, like the rest of us.
