Well it sounds like we both got mind-wiped pretty deep. I have a confession... I think I was a very dangerous person once. My hands know how to hurt people very badly. It's really scary. I mean, I can kill you right now without breaking a sweat. No, no, don't worry! I'm not that person anymore. I'm just going to stay in here and make some art. The outside world can go screw itself. But I can show you a choke-hold I just remembered. Here, stand still..."

Arisetsu was super angry and she said to Vol, "to protect Hope, I would end Death if I must. Do not doubt my conviction or my power," and so that started another fight, because Vol said... well, we're out of time and it doesn't matter what he said.

To sum up, there's been a lot of lover's spats over the centuries, but amazingly, Vol, the god of Death, is still Arisetsu's lover, eighteen thousand years later! That's really weird, right? Hope and Death as lovers? I know!

Have you ever heard the folk tale that says if your situation is truely hopeless and you pray to Arisetsu, you'll die in your sleep? Well, don't go spreading this around, but it's true! As a gift to Arisetsu, Vol changed reality so that you really will die peacefully in your sleep if your situation is truly hopeless. Arisetsu was pretty upset about that for a few hundred years, but she's gotten used to it.

They say Arisetsu has made Vol kinder, but I think Vol has rubbed off on Arisetsu a lot more. Arisetsu hates the undead... really seriously HATES them... and I think it's all because Vol hates them. If she didn't care for Vol I don't think she'd care about the undead either.

That's a great story! Man, I don't know if I can top your amnesia island story, but I'll give it a shot.

One time I was fighting this wizard-priest, right? I was pretty young then and my catch phrase was 'I AM IMMORTAL!' So this priest hears my catch phrase and his eyes grow wide and he says some angry words right as I pound his skull in. Next thing I know. I'm surrounded by rose petals swirling all around, and I go flying into the sky.

This scary voice says 'YOU DARE DEFY DEATH? THEN TASTE WHAT YOUR HUBRIS HAS WROUGHT!' Something like that. And then, no shit, I was sent to some sort of hell dimension where nobody ages.

I was in there for, oh, 3000 years, maybe? Something like that. Met a lot of fun people. But mostly that time is a blur and I can barely remember anything. I don't think my brain was working right in there. Anyway, one day I found this huge bell floating in limbo and I hit it with my hammer, and apparently I destroyed the entire prison dimension and reappeared here!

A lot of the gods are different now and I guess they don't fuck with people as much anymore, or at least not so directly. Which is nice.

Oh yeah: I had to learn a new language, because my old homeland had been wiped off the map. And of course everybody I'd ever known was dead, which was pretty depressing. But besides that it's been mostly the same: hitting shit until it dies, making buckles, getting drunk. Oh, also I don't seem to age anymore, which is pretty great. Okay, your turn for a story!

I guess my parents are right: all the rakshasa born here are infected with empathy. Which means that even if we could go home to Ravana, the non-empathetic rakshasa would simply kill us to avoid spreading the contamination. I may dream of seeing our homeworld, but it can never be.

I hope that wasn't too embarrassing. I've collected all of your measurements. Assuming you're an average specimen of your species, it's safe to say that your kind is quite valuable for augury!

It worked! The long-form augury allowed me to choose a very specific future for you. I chose to make you more fleet of foot in the near future.

This technique could be huge! Of course, since it took eight hours of you standing perfectly still while I used a dozen chickens' worth of entrails, it's not really a very practical business practice tool... but still, knowledge is always good.

...And I also heard that General Furlak was ousted from power because he refused General Tremal's sexual advances. I don't believe it, though. Can you imagine?! Tremal is still young and vibrant; why would she want to mate with an old Alharth-native like Furlak? Now, I would have believed it if Tremal was trying to bed General Pask to gain power and prestige. But the Ravanites don't find native-borns like us to be attractive at all.

Why? Well, the size difference is pretty stark, and they hate our tails. And.. this is just a rumor... apparently Ravanites like to shape-shift during intercourse. It's all very confusing. Sometimes I feel like the Ravana-born Rakshasa are an entirely different species from the Alharth-born! Oh, look at the time, I need to get back to work! Thank you for the lovely chat.

Of all the knowledge that Autumn fairies consider 'evil', I suspect cheesemaking seems the silliest to mortals. Mortals think "Yes, we get it: repeatedly molesting a cow for your own personal gain is evil. But fairies don't consider eating meat to be evil, so how is this worse?" But that's not the reason!

As you know, the alchemical formulae for cheese are quite simple. But as with all alchemy, powerful ingredients give powerful results. In this case we're working with an animal's sacrifice in liquid form, quite a powerful source! You see? That's why they call it evil: ALL magic powered by sacrifices or suffering are considered evil by the Autumn court.

We Winter fae don't care about such things. But I wasn't kidding when I said I knew the dark arts of cheesemaking: since the Autumn fae consider it evil, Autumn practicioners are called Dairy Witches. I think that's wonderful. Here's one of their dark formulae. Try it some time. It's not bad.
