"In truth, I was not aware of the existence of any god in this world, save those who have made themselves such." Joly got out, and then, then he realized exactly what it was he had said, out loud, how he had said it, and that this could prove to be somewhat of a problem if the cameras had been on them in that moment. He needed to stop that, truly...

"Have those in the capitol not established themselves as some new form of..." No, it was best to stop that now, indeed, and change the subject instead. He had little use for gods at any rate, finding his faith was better placed in science entirely, but it did no good to begin an argument like that with Marius here. Instead, he found himself attempting to be soothing, wanting to reach out to Marius somehow.

The young man was, after all, in love, forced into something as horrible as this, and with his lady, his WIFE, at that, to boot. It did not do to be anything but comforting now, and to try to raise his spirits as he could.

"I think, my friend, that you will need to content yourself with the knowledge God is in the world we left, but we might hope that he's prepared you well for all of this.

"It seems at any rate, we've a few angels on our side, when one considers both your gentle one here, and the most terrifying one that I am told awaits us when we shuffle off this mortal coil here. One could not think either of them had fallen as we have, but then perhaps that comes of flying too close to the sun as we did there."

And well...

"You must understand, when it was mentioned that the version I received was so, well, from within Corinth. While they claim in vino veritas, I confess it to be rather more mendacitas we toss between us should said vino be good enough to do its job. But come, I am heartened to know that it is true, and we will both do what we can for her here. It may do something of some good before this has been ended, yes?"
