The only expectations I have for anyone in this game is to play fairly and to play to the best of their ability by choosing a god that suits them. I doubt you've failed to meet those already.
[Still...] I do believe it's best to consider the possibility of back-up alliances should the time come that it's necessary.
I want to win. Isn't that why we're here? To win, so the great gods can settle their dispute and we can go home with our wishes fulfilled. But I don't want to kill others to make those things come true. We're all here for reasons of our own. I don't necessarily think mine is better, and I doubt my resolve is half as great as the other participants. I just want all of this to be resolved as peacefully as possible.

A noble task, and an even more noble desire...shouldn't you align yourself with someone who shares those ideals? Should I win, I'd like to do so as peacefully as possible and settle this dispute as quickly as we can. I would never ask my followers to kill on my behalf...can your god say the same?
[And please don't badmouth his chosen god in that roundabout fashion? He likes Fortune, thank you very much! He can't up and say that, though, because he wants to live. The last thing he needs is an angry god.]
Great Beauty, your values and mine undoubtedly align on this matter. Should there come a time when alliances must change, I'll take your compassionate invitation into consideration.

I've talked to some, though I have seen many more around. Why do you ask?
no subject
Curious, I suppose. I was wondering if you've learned the alignment of others yet, or found those who share your own alignment.

Is it wise for him to answer this? He smiles wryly.]
The nature of this contest is rather new to me. If the great god sitting before me had expectations, I'm afraid I have disappointed them.

That's all I ask. And even if the time doesn't come, please know I will lend my aid to you when I can.
