[ he'd spoken to him himself too, but he hadn't known him well enough before that to say for sure... though he certainly had seemed off, at least. ]
Those barriers that went up around everyone that night — how d'you think that fits into it? Was that somethin' he did, you reckon, or did that come from somewhere else?
[ falling quiet, he gazes out into the tide and mulls over his best answer. ]
... I think it came from another source, but the angels don't know where it came from or what it was. Perhaps it followed him, tethering to him, but it there was also a barrier up at the expulsion today.
They don't, no. And apparently their God is unhappy with what happened, and it seemed it "wasn't expected" for them just as much as it was the angels and us. To the point even they don't have answers for what caused... any of it.
But to not know what could have caused something to happen in your domain is difficult for me to accept, even if the whole is much larger than our single slice we're contained in.
Yeah, that's my feelin' on it too. Ought to know how basic things like death work in it, at the very least, even if it is s'posed to be heaven.
[ he was generously giving this god the benefit of the doubt compared to the god of sanctism, but he's quickly starting to think that maybe this one sucks too, actually. ]
Mm. To be so omnipresent as they've been made out to be, they should. And they should be able to pinpoint where the source of a problem has come from.
At the very least, if they have more agents than those angels that we've met thus far... they should have the numbers for a network that can gather information and help solve their problems.
[ he might not have known the precise cause or occurence of problems right away, as archon of liyue, but he sure found out fast. ]

[ shakes his head ]
Seems pretty clear he weren't in his right mind.
no subject
[ it's at least a relief that a good handful of people he's spoken to so far have noticed. ]
He wasn't there, behind his eyes, when he was taken away last night. Speaking to him, he was a different person.

[ at least that one he'd figured might have been the angels' work, to keep anyone else from getting mixed up in it if things got violent, but... ]
