Really…
Even I, who believes long gone from this world, focusing his ‘almighty gaze’ elsewhere, cannot help but beg him for answers.
What happened?
Where did I go wrong?
Why them? Why not me?
I never waged war.
I only protected, never ruled, those under me.
Even when the other Rulers of Sin pleaded for me to help them in whatever struggle they
were going through, I did nothing, steering clear of any and all trouble.
All I wanted was an easy life, a happy family and happy subjects.
So tell me God?

Yes. It is what I do best, after all.
I should just follow God’s example, adopt his indifference towards everything and just… go to sleep.
And let the whole world sleep with me, forever in a state of indifference.
Just as God intended.
Let the world freeze over and hibernate, until a new spring arrives.
A new world.
One without the self-proclaimed Rulers of Sin, without the self-proclaimed Supreme Beings,
and without the self-proclaimed Heroes.
Let everything die and embrace the eternal sleep.
Together with me.
Together, with my family.
