*Tavin continues to pound out a beat with one foot as he concentrates on the book. After a second, he puts the book down and begins to clap his hands too, nodding his head to the beat. After a second more, he begins to sing, in a deep and carrying voice*
Aaaaaaaiy en r'ain e toah ah!
Ley met toah, ahn rektet mah e'n
So ram nee dan gohl met sa ney
Aaaaaaaiy en soh et toah ah!
Gohlt e'rn mah ren ol mah te sah
In rey toah mos ah det toah lan
Ahm los teh da ahm los men toah dey tas!
*Tavin stops singing and shakes his head*
Bother... I am *SO* out of practice....

:::Cora just cocked her head to the side watching Tavin stomp his feet in a pattern or rhythm. Then he started to release elongated words in differnt pitches:::
Ooooh! You're singing! Selurnis taught me to sing too...but I don't think I'm very good at it...
What language was that?

*Tavin blinks and realizes that Cora was there the whole time. He blushes, flustered and embarassed*
Oh, uhm... well.... Th... That is the language of the angels, really. I... I'm sorry about that. I'm afraid that I'm really bad at singing.
*Tavin hurriedly tries to change the subject*
So... how have you been?

*Tavin blinks, surprised*
Well, Cora, an Angel is a creature that does the bidding of God, the creator of all things. You see, they come in....
*Tavin hesitates, blinking again as it dawns on him*
You have no idea what religion is, do you.

There are a few noncomformist circles that practice 'religion'... but it is not widely accepted when I'm from. The likelyhood that god exists was disproved many many years ago by astrophysicists and astochemists.
:::She paused to think of the things she'd experienced thus far, as well as all the things her world is wrong about:::
but, there....is a God, yes?

Yes, Cora. There most certainly IS a God. And he most certainly DID create everything..... And behind the scenes, even in your time, he remains- pulling the strings to make all the puppets dance to his twisted little song.
*Tavin frowns*
And Angels are real too, they are all pawns of HIS will. Creatures made as his slaves, born and bred simply to carry out his orders and do his bidding.

:::Cora frowns as well, surpised to hear such a negative description of what she was under the impression from the noncomformists of her world that 'God' was a very good being:::
:::It seemed that it upset Tavin as well:::
I know what it is like...to have no life other than the orders and wills of others.
:::thinking to herself a second::: So...you speak the angel language. You are an angel then? You follow the will of God?

*Tavin grinned, not in pleasure, but in spite*
I.... Used to be an Angel. I defied God, and he cast me out in all his wisdom. He cast me out of eternal paradise. Because I refused to kill people for him.

Kill...? He forced you to kill humans??
:::suddenly Cora felt an old anger boil up inside her:::
I don't care if he is God! No one is allowed to take life away! Why...it's! why! :::she was nearly in a huff::: That's horrible! I thought God was some sort of all powerful being who did nothing but good...even the nonconformists in my world are wrong!
:::She continued to rant, though a bit more to herself:::
Why..! If I ever met him I'd give him a peice of my mind!

*Tavin shakes his head*
I mislead you. I killed trillions of people for God. Not by force... Simply by nature. I've done so through countless ages. It was only by chance that I realized that what I was doing was wrong. Perhaps God is wrong for giving the order, but that doesn't make me guiltless in carrying the order out.
((Hey, Serenis? Doesn't this sound AWEFULLY familiar to a conversation we've had?))

((Amen Tav. God, the parallelism is mind numbing! Hehehe...))
:::she looked at him, her ego, her love of captain hurt. Captain killed... She shook her head:::
I don't understand. They were killed by nature...what is natural about killing a human? Why would God, or the Creater as you call him command someone to destroy his own creations? Is he evil? Is he good?

They were killed by me acting according to MY nature. You must understand that I thought of myself as nothing more than a beast. I was made that way by design. As to why God would kill his creations..... For there to be good, there must also be evil. Happiness cannot exist unless sorrow exists as well. Its a difficult thing to explain.......

No... :::she cut off the thought he left trailing::
There are many things lacking in my world, I've come to find, but that concept still stands. There cannot be birth without death. There cannot be life without death.... so God is of that nature as well? He is both good and evil all at once? He must be a very confused man...
But...if you understand this concept...that there must be death for there to be life...what made you think your duty was wrong? Wasn't it like all things...necessary?
((Yay! Cora can be a smart cookie ^^))

*Tavin smiles, amused by the question*
Ah, the simplicity of your statement. Good versus evil. Again, I mislead you. While both good and evil, pain and ecstacy, love and hate... must all exist.... Who is to say that such things are exclusive to one side or the other?
Let's say that Team A and Team B are at war, and neither team has any idea who started the aggression. Team A wears white, and Team B wears black. Now which one is good and which one is bad? Is Team B bad because they associate with the color black? Of course not! The truth is that without knowing for certain, the only thing you can say for certain is that Team A and Team B oppose eachother. To Team A, Team B is evil. To Team B, Team A is evil. It all becomes a matter of perspective.
That's how it is in Heaven and in Hell. God is no more incapable of murder than Lucifer is incapable of compassion. In the end, they are simply two sides that oppose eachother.
*Tavin fades out*
...... think about it.....
