So he's a new god. Godling. Servitor. Repeat godling? For once in her life Asmodia really, really wishes she'd ever given a crap about religious studies because maybe, just maybe she'd have some idea what's actually going on here.

In the dream, you said you had been resurrected! Is this what you meant?"
