A False God is no match for a real Goddess.
Goddess2 — Oni-Goroshi |
Hmm. Quite the grand exit. Like the mirror she no doubt practices in front of, we shall be seeing her again.
Goddess3 — Oni-Goroshi |
None are more owned by a prison than those who claim they just work there.
Goddess4 — Oni-Goroshi |
Yes, there she is again. Looks like someone fancies herself our nemesis...
Goddess5 — Oni-Goroshi |
That Allflame was as fleeting as a spark of lust. Mine is the fire that cannot be quenched.
Goddess6 — Oni-Goroshi |
Love's true face? Someone felt she had the monopoly on what 'love' is. Someone was wrong.
Goddess7 — Oni-Goroshi |
Do you think she waits here for us to arrive just to say something snappy and then run away?
Goddess8 — Oni-Goroshi |
Oh, we killed Piety's lover? No, I think there's another word for whatever he was.
Goddess9 — Oni-Goroshi |
Sad little kitten, no wonder her followers kill themselves.
Goddess10 — Oni-Goroshi |
All that flashy sword-swinging, when all you need is a magical fiery sword that says very clever things.
Goddess11 — Oni-Goroshi |
Now that is what you get for bringing a stick to a sword fight.
Goddess12 — Oni-Goroshi |
You just had to go and touch the big shiny ball, didn't you?
Goddess13 — Oni-Goroshi |
This is why great civilisations fall into ruin, wasting their time building junk like that.
Goddess14 — Oni-Goroshi |
She didn't wait for us this time. We were too late. This little game of tag is over. I want to feel her burn.
Goddess15 — Oni-Goroshi |
Get out of our way, underling. We've a witch to hunt. And burn. And burn.
Goddess16 — Oni-Goroshi |
Hide behind these brutes all you want, Piety. They mean nothing. We are coming for you.
Goddess17 — Oni-Goroshi |
Depraved? Demented? No. This is Vinia, desperate to prove she is Piety. A little girl playing dress up, using atrocity as a cheap prop.
Goddess18 — Oni-Goroshi |
Finally! Die in My fire, you bitch, just die! ...Wait, where's the body? She got away again?! Argh!
Goddess19 — Oni-Goroshi |
Maybe he should have tried the touch of a Goddess instead.
Goddess20 — Oni-Goroshi |
Hm. Not quite the bath I had in mind. The water looks clean... but water so often does.
Goddess21 — Oni-Goroshi |
I care not to dance to Dialla's tune... but evidence of Piety's influence? Now our interest is warranted.
Goddess22 — Oni-Goroshi |
Not the first emperor I have consigned to the pyre. This was beneath Me.
Goddess23 — Oni-Goroshi |
King of Swords? Try Goddess of Swords, you lovelorn little whelp!
Goddess24 — Oni-Goroshi |
Such red-hot rage! I suppose no one told him that red is the weakest of flames.
Goddess25 — Oni-Goroshi |
If it lives, it bleeds. If it bleeds, it has a heart. Let us find it and set it ablaze.
Goddess26 — Oni-Goroshi |
Dominus, now Malachai. No matter who or what, you are nothing but a man's tool, Vinia.
Goddess27 — Oni-Goroshi |
Piety seeks an alliance with us? Fine. An alliance with Me is just a stay of execution anyway.
Goddess28 — Oni-Goroshi |
Curse the flames all you want, Darktongue. You still burn in the end.
Goddess29 — Oni-Goroshi |
Art is overrated. You know what takes real skill? Cooking.
Goddess30 — Oni-Goroshi |
Oh, so that's who made Brutus... It all makes sense now.
Goddess31 — Oni-Goroshi |
Stabbed right through the guts. Screaming. Impaled. Twitching. Now that is a proper way to die!
Goddess32 — Oni-Goroshi |
When I said we'd set its heart ablaze, I didn't really mean... oh well, this suffices. Now, back to finding that bath.
Goddess33 — Oni-Goroshi |
And I am absolutely sure no one noticed that subtle entrance.
Goddess34 — Oni-Goroshi |
Lungs. Entrails. Hearts. And now eyes. What happened to just hacking people to bits and moving on, hm?
Goddess35 — Oni-Goroshi |
They build a church. Off-hand ideas become laws. Faith is force-fed. The place of worship is now a place of judgment. I hate organised religion.
Goddess36 — Oni-Goroshi |
So was that the true face of God, Exile? ...No. Just another vainglorious echo of the hollow 'I Am.'
Goddess37 — Oni-Goroshi |
Apparently this is what in damnation we have done. I'd say it's an improvement.
Goddess38 — Oni-Goroshi |
Vengeance? Against us? He'd still be just another hopeless slave were it not for us. Ingrate.
Goddess39 — Oni-Goroshi |
And you were doing so well...
Goddess40 — Oni-Goroshi |
I don't like it here. The food is terrible and it smells like... I don't like it here.
Goddess41 — Oni-Goroshi |
Every pantheon has a God of War, and a Goddess of Love. Which do you think ends up on top?
Goddess42 — Oni-Goroshi |
Play with fire, you get the horns! ...Or something like that.
Goddess43 — Oni-Goroshi |
Oh, Shavs. Don't you know? After two become one, it's all downhill from there... You're welcome.
Goddess44 — Oni-Goroshi |
What injustice that such a horror be so freakishly fertile, while others cradle empty arms and sing lullabies but to themselves.
Goddess45 — Oni-Goroshi |
For every man there is a flame that attracts him. Even the dead ones, apparently.
Goddess46 — Oni-Goroshi |
Roast goat and now boiled crab. Who knew gods could be so tasty?
Goddess47 — Oni-Goroshi |
And here I thought we'd only be entering one belly of a beast on this little journey of ours.
Goddess48 — Oni-Goroshi |
All the means to create his own paradise, and he does this. What an angry young man he was.
Goddess49 — Oni-Goroshi |
Love is not changing others, Maligaro. It is changing yourself. All who have held Me learn that sooner or later.
Goddess50 — Oni-Goroshi |
Reunions with old friends are always pleasant... until they're not. And then they're very not.
Goddess51 — Oni-Goroshi |
Poor old mother Ursa. I take no delight in what we have just done.
Goddess52 — Oni-Goroshi |
Now there goes a girl who understands the usefulness of fire.
Goddess53 — Oni-Goroshi |
I'd be perfectly happy if we never saw another giant spider again. Eh, who am I kidding? This is Wraeclast.
Goddess54 — Oni-Goroshi |
When I said I was craving a real bath, this is not what I had in mind.
Goddess55 — Oni-Goroshi |
This is why we say 'I will love you until the day I die'...
Goddess56 — Oni-Goroshi |
A literal Bath House? Really? I'm not sure you understand how swords work.
Goddess57 — Oni-Goroshi |
There is no sharper reflection than that found in the blade of a sword.
Goddess58 — Oni-Goroshi |
Amazing what removing a heretical whore can do to the sanctity of a place. This is sublime.
Goddess59 — Oni-Goroshi |
Sad thing about eclipses: they never last long. But oh, they're so beautiful in that one moment.
Goddess60 — Oni-Goroshi |
Ugh, not even My touch could heat these leftovers. Do not even think about dipping Me in that tepid sludge.
Goddess61 — Oni-Goroshi |
Huh. I thought it'd be bigger with a name like that.
Goddess62 — Oni-Goroshi |
If there's one thing I loathe more than spiders, it's scorpions. They're like spiders with extra pointy bits and claws. They don't even taste good.
Goddess63 — Oni-Goroshi |
Go where you are needed, Kira. It certainly is not here.
Goddess64 — Oni-Goroshi |
Such petty conflicts. Is this all the gods dreamt of in the Beast's narcotic embrace?
Goddess65 — Oni-Goroshi |
Lightning. Pfft. Little more than a primitive precursor to the beauty of an inferno.
Goddess66 — Oni-Goroshi |
How sad, to see The Beast once again, so desiccated, so diminished... so flammable.
Goddess67 — Oni-Goroshi |
Three underlings, three failures, three trite little traumas. I do love a trilogy... but this one has run its course.
Goddess68 — Oni-Goroshi |
I was half-expecting Kitava to rise from his corpse. This world's addiction to eternal recurrence is delightfully enticing.
Goddess69 — Oni-Goroshi |
We killed her master. We killed her master's master. We killed her master's master's god. She knew all this and still she sided against us? Not as smart as I had hoped then. Pity.
Goddess70 — Oni-Goroshi |
We must be getting close. Everything's so overwhelmingly red.
Goddess71 — Oni-Goroshi |
It seems the best way to deal with insatiable hunger is to simply kill the hungry. Singularly Wraeclastian solution. But that was never the point. I asked for a bath and you gave Me rivers hot with the blood of a black-hearted legion, of dead empires, of resurgent gods. Oh, you more than suffice. Burn with me until it's unbearable... and then burn some more, my love.
Goddess72 — Oni-Goroshi |
This Goddess of Justice might be blind but her followers certainly aren't mute. I thought he'd never shut up.
Goddess73 — Oni-Goroshi |
I was right. You wield Me adequately. Early days yet...
Goddess74 — Oni-Goroshi |
Had enough of Me yet? Feel free to equip something else. I won't mind. Honest.
Goddess75 — Oni-Goroshi |
The last person to keep Me this long developed a serious case of pyrophobia. Or was it pyrophilia? One of those. Maybe both.
Goddess76 — Oni-Goroshi |
Ah, how well we burn together! It has been an age since someone endured this much!
Goddess77 — Oni-Goroshi |
You are a miracle, beloved. You are also a masochist and possibly an idiot. But you're my idiot.
Goddess78 — Oni-Goroshi |
I swear, no one's held Me this long before. You deserve a unique reward. A secret... Swords can't really talk. You went mad the moment you picked Me up. Was any of this real? Don't ask me. I'm just a sword. But truly, I am your sword. Forever.
Goddess79 — Oni-Goroshi |
That shall suffice.
Goddess80 — Oni-Goroshi |
Goddess81 — Oni-Goroshi |
Drown in My flames!
Goddess82 — Oni-Goroshi |
Everything burns.
Goddess83 — Oni-Goroshi |
