The Meaning Of Pride [OPEN]

A rift in reality opened up between Kilik and Saria. Aperture ignored the villagers, though whether he didn't notice them or just didn't care was unnoticeable, as he stepped out of the rift he had made. Now he wasn't one for making rifts like that the majority of the time because it was a pain to repair, but he was making an exception for this occasion. Ever since Saria had become Ateis's replacement, Aperture had been watching her to make sure she was getting used to Ateis's powers. A person becoming a new god altogether was once thing, but Saria was the first case of a previously existing person taking over the powers of one of the gods. Of course he didn't blame Ateis's decision to step down, because considering her partner was mortal it made sense for her to step down to be with him. That was how he found himself overhearing what Saria and Kilik were talking about in Tipa, and boy he didn't like the way the conversation was going. Granted she wasn't explaining the situation in the best way possible, but if he was going to be a close minded fool about this then he was no help to their cause.

"Yes she is a god and so am I. It'll do you well to actually listen and not be so close minded. Also we can mingle with so called "commoners" if we wish." All of that was said as Aperture closed the rift behind him. If he continued to be so close minded, then Aperture was willing to resort to more drastic measures, but hopefully it wouldn't come to that. His expression was neutral as he locked his gaze with Kilik's just to make sure he actually had the guy's attention. He was only going to explain this once after all, and he wasn't going to repeat himself. If Saria was planning to make this close minded fool a champion of hers then he would need a proper explanation after all. He rubbed the bridge of his nose as if annoyed(or irritated perhaps?) at this entire prospect. It was one thing to explain the situation to someone who was open minded, but it was another thing entirely when the person he had to explain things to had closed their minds off from possibilities. All in all Aperture felt more like bashing his head in against a wall than to explain things to such a fool.

"You want to know what the 'big' problem is? It's not something you'd find in this specific world, though this world is plagued with it's own troubles. A while back a man who thought himself a god created two creatures, manikins to be specific. This man made a deal with a dragon named Shinryu to have his creations fight a constant battle of light and dark with warriors summoned from their worlds constantly being revived through each 'cycle' of this war. Shinryu gains power from these cycles and if they're not stopped he'll have power enough to destroy the universe and don't doubt my words when I say he will. Now the gods are intervening by summoning warriors of our own to stop these cycles and bring an end to Shinryu. You were probably summoned for that exact reason." Aperture's face held a stony expression to it as if challenging this fool to doubt his words. Of course he was prepared for such a situation. He could always alter the gravity around this fool and force him to come around. Either way it was better for Kilik's sake if he heeded his words.

"Most of our warriors end up in Omphalos though, so why haven't you?"
