[Ali wholeass skipping the entire archon storyline by refusing to believe in gods, and thus assuming something must be up with the whole archon system.

But at least he has the presence of mind to look embarrassed about what he had said before.]

What a choice then, that I said my lack of beliefs to you specifically. Please understand, in my world whenever someone claims to be a god they're always just a person with too many powers and an agenda of some kind.
