<Why'd they bother doing it if it was likely to be a failure? Your family seems like they would NEVER take that kind of risk.>

<Not important.>

<...you're probably right. :/ >

<Because we TRIED everything else.>

<I can't. Not on this.>
Kyle cries with renewed strength as he realizes the futility of it all.

<It's not viable. She was originally bound to our bloodline by a ritual involving the sacrifice of nearly three hundred virgin daughters of our bloodline in order to produce enough energy to even begin to bind her... To this day we don't know why it actually worked, only that it did. We had pretty much given up at that point, and it was a last act of desperation. We expected it to fail, and for us to be destroyed soon after. The only thing I can think of... No, it doesn't really make any sense for it to be because of it, but... maybe she took pity on them. All those girls. There were more, there... ready. They had to do it themselves, and every one of them did, without hesitation or regret.
I think that part of her just... didn't want them to do it. I'm not sure why, it doesn't make sense, knowing her, but...
I don't know. There aren't many records of it, and the ritual wasn't preserved, so that noone could study it and find a way to set her free, somehow.
That's all I know.>

((Oh come on.))
<So, Shys'm Caes saw the sacrifice of hundreds of virgins, took pity on them...and went with the desires of the guys who sacrificed them? Perhaps we could exploit the horrible and crippling idiocy that becoming the Overgod seems to afflict one with?>

<I can't. Not on this.>
Kyle cries with renewed strength as he realizes the futility of it all.
<Yuri and me are working out a solution. Don't worry.>
P.S. Will is almost as good a liar as he is a lie-detector.

Kyle slowly stops crying as much.
<Ashley. We failed. And now... it's over isn't it? It is. I can feel it inside... It's like the very void you're in... I'm scared.>
Conny keeps hugging Kyle.

<You all are to optimistic for your own good... And it's gonna... Get you...>
The words trail off as Kyle just kind of collapses ceasing to cry.

Selina continues crying softly.

"Kyle, stop crying.
Everything is going to be fine."

N'thara also attempts to comfort Kyle by patting his arm.

<Kyle, you know me. Would I be optimistic without a reason?>

Angel hugs Kyle.
<Can I try to cheer him up? I think I know how. Conny, I'll need your help. Selina, too, if she's willing.>

Kyle is limp and yielding. Like dough or a baby.

<She is, after all, a creator being.

Somewhat violently inclined due to how long she has existed, but at least at first she was very similar to depictions of mother earth, and pieces of that part of her are reflected in gods all across the world, just as pieces of her violent nature are. Is it so hard to believe that part of that nature may have caused it?>
