That is strange... But it does give me a better idea as to who they are. Though I thought the situation there had been resolved...

But again, the problem that comes of this is that, if a clash is expected to happen, then it's a high chance that you will cause them to die, regardless. Which is why I think a mediation session would be necessary, if you take this job.

Though with the idea that they are essentially keeping their world alive by living, would that not be considered to be a "god", at least in a sense? Even then, dealing with people with that mentality, you need someone on a similar level to get anywhere.
