You might want to talk to one of the groups who came back on Thursday. The Prosecutor told me that he no longer believed his god wasn’t involved, because they talked to an imprisoned angel called Uriel? Or… words along those lines.
… it’s that, or she was one side of the conflict, but … [ he frowns why am i trying to think this early in the morning ]
xie lian looks appropriately horrified. san lang, who has been a ferret up to this point, rapidly shifts into a qilin, letting out a low, ominous growl. ]
... Beings made entirely of Dust - to gather more of it would to make them more powerful. Imagine the amount of Dust that comes from the elimination of an entire civilization.
But if they’re getting Dust from eliminating civilisations, what are we here for? One or two people a week versus a whole planet — we know this is a conflict of some sort, but what are they trying to prove with it?
... I wonder if there's a way to show this to someone who might know something, without giving away too much. Are those symbols representing something we don't know or understand?
If one of us goes on one of those "adventure" things again, or somebody we know is aware- we might be able to pass it off as somethin' related to that.
...Mr. Van Zieks has done very poorly with keeping secrets related to you all already.
I should prefer Allen - but ultimately, it is up to you all. I can speak with him and frame it as my own curiosity about Christianity and other religions, if you would like, so there is little chance of reveal.

I heard... "All things are made of Dust and Dust is everywhere, but only angels are made of pure Dust."

Something about a dying garden.

We have information about Dust being part of, like…. an original sin or something? Why are angels made of it? Are they related somehow?
no subject
...Could it be that the Angels need Dust to live? Whether they are "godly beings" or not.
no subject
So, the conflict is… for generating Dust?

[ the slow, dawning realization of horror across xie lian's face is palpable. ]
....... Wouldn't that make sense?
[ bad. Bad! Very bad!!!! ]

… Didn’t one of the notes from the dead talk about someone or something being gone permanently?

[ Reluctantly. ]
It would match up with question two of my first week doing this. Why are people killing here.
One of the symbols it hit was bread.

Considerin' all the Christianity stuff that seems to be related, don't think it's that suspicious to ask somebody who clearly knows the religion.
