"You're changing the subject," Piety snapped. "Trying to distract me." He backed away. He had to save these people and then get out of this hellish city.

Did you pick your favorite meal? Or is it just what you find most delicious? If so, did you really choose it as your favorite meal? You can't pick what you like, nobody can. What right have you to say what they enjoy is an abomination, whether it be by chance of nature or by the grand design of bio-alchemists?

"There's a difference," Piety protested. "Alchemists aren't gods; they're only men. They've got no right to pretend to be what they are not. It's blasphemy."

"The creator of everything, the patron of an aspect of life," Piety said impatiently. "They oversee the affairs of the lesser beings and direct their actions as they see fit. I've been chosen by the God of Mercy to protect the innocent victims of cruelty by any way I know how."

Pfft... nobody created everything, such a being couldn't exist. And if they did, they sound like real pricks. How we decide to govern ourselves is no business of theirs

Piety, for once, was speechless. He felt as if he should be praying for this man's soul, but he couldn't bring himself to pray for such a despicable human. Instead he tried once more to summon Ilmater's power into himself.
