(Self-Proclaimed) Menace To Society Quotes

“The sins that a human soul accumulates are weighed after death, but gods are different. Primordials, both celestials and demons alike, are brought into existence through the chaotic whims of the universe, and the same can be said of our deaths.

That’s why, there’s no good or bad to a god. There is only what is right, and only upon our deaths can we be wrong.”
