GODLY AUDIENCES: RAY

[divus]

[Another stretch of silence. Another something they can't answer? Perhaps so.]

...this wasn't how I wanted to start the new world. I know why I made my choices. I can't speak for others.

[selfimmolates]

... You really can't answer a lot, can you? How much can we expect that to change over the next few weeks?

[divus]

[A shake of the head. They sure can't!] Hopefully a lot, but I can't give you a certain amount. The closer you get to a god, the more we can say. I don't know how or why it works, but that's the way it is. It's...why I don't mind that you talk to the others, too.

[selfimmolates]

Good, 'cause I wasn't going to stop.

[divus]

I didn't say you had to, Ray.

[selfimmolates]

Glad we've got that settled, then.

[divus]

Anything else? [They'll give him another chance to ask anything he wants, at least.]

[selfimmolates]

... No, that'll be it for now. Thanks.

[watch him come back tomorrow]
