With the fading of light and arrival at the All-Father's court, Brahma's expressions remained impassive as another child attempted to prick at his mind. [i]'Young one, you misunderstand. I am not here to mete out justice; that is not My role. Nor shall I vie to see the child punished; as I understand the Black One's motives for Her own change, I too understand that such notions are useless. I am merely here to create the deigned state of affairs.' '...but, your words are indications of why We cannot retire, not yet. If you truly believe that this is a new age, that your nature is different from Ours, that authority is wielded by individuals, then you cannot bring to bear the truth. As I had stated, until you reach That, you are not Us, but merely you.'[/i] With those words said, Brahma cut off any further mental dialogue with the child, his heads turning up slightly as he made an announcement to the fellow God he had chosen to work alongside. "The young one has been brought, All-Father." He announced, the voices of His three other heads seeming to take on a brief dissonance during the speaking of Odin's title. "If there is no continued need for Our presence, I will return to My status as observer."
