"Pity." Kaseki would speak, his kindhearted tone fading away into a demonic yet calm demeanor. He would stand before her, much like a god. It was not often that he carried himself as such. Only when the voice in his head would return.
"Have you already forgotten?" Kodai's voice rang like a bell in the ears of the plant man. But even so, the sounds of his tone were only in Kaseki's mind, deaf to the world around him.
"She is nothing like us." Kaseki would think to himself, in reply to the great demon.
"You were born in a world so far from here, remember Kaseki?" Kodai would smile in thought, revisiting the memories. "Two million years you lived alone with no one to call family. Such a sorrowful life. A million years ago you met your wife, where you are happily married, only to miss seeing your son grow up, and to see your creations hate you. It's ironic, isn't it?
"You gave people a second chance, allowing your adoptive father, Death himself to allow you to hand pick your residents and offer a haven and salvation. But with the greed and avarice of others, our world is tainted with corruption, and they blame you. Such great humanity, no?
"When they see your face, it's almost as if they're looking directly at me. It's like they know the many people I've bled to death, when you yourself have not even swatted a fly. To think of it, over a million years you've lived without harming a soul. At least, besides me.
"You're a monster to them, just like me. They's never accept you. You know it. Not Edward. Not Master Aoi. Not even the family we were born into. And after all this time... our real father has never came back. Do you ever wonder why he hasn't appeared?
"Maybe he never loved us...."
"If you cannot find a reason for coming here, perhaps I can give you a reason to stay." Kaseki would smile, shaking off his thoughts. The trees around them would begin to shake with the creator's presence. And soon, the day would be night.
