“We have never asked Heaven for anything.”
“Even if we did, there would be no answer. There are no gods. Praying to the gods is simply a way of giving ourselves resolve.”
“If that resolve was already there, then whether or not the gods exist hardly matters.”
“Then what if the gods really do exist?”
“...If they do, then we who pray to them are nothing but clowns beneath the curtain.”
P.S. A story about [the human heart]. The chapter lengths and word counts may differ from those of other books, but please read the story to the end before deciding whether to keep going. Thank you! (bows)
