When I returned, I saw Dallel standing with a clipboard.
"Hey, what's happening?"
"Oh, perfect, we need to know where to put the altar."
"What?"
"Even if you entered the system or used to be a human, right now you're a deity, meaning you get stronger with worship."
Then Dallel noticed the dragon in the room.
"Who's that?"
"Leader of Dominion and my sister, Regala."
"A dragon is a faction leader?"
"Apparently, but listen, I really don't have any preferences with altar placement."
"Okay, now for another question. Do you prefer lamb blood or pig blood as a proper sacrifice?"
"What?"
"Celios said that animal sacrifices are great source of power."
"I don't need sacrifices."
"Okay, so no preference."
"Wait. That's not what I-"
"Next question."
"What?"
"Do you have a specific day that you want separated for no work?"
"What?"
"Amy said that's what Earth's ruler did."
"I know, the Sabbath, but I don't need one."
"Okay. Next que-"
"Who's Amy?"
Dallel gave a glance of minor annoyance to the ascended dragon, before ignoring the question and continued.
"What is the punishment for theft?"
"Um, return the item and fine them a 10th of the item's cost."
"Okay. What about murder?"
"Death."
My immediate response shocked both of them.
"Why?"
"If they commit murder and kill another, they should be executed. If it's a smite death, then smite them, if it's a regular death that we can revive, then let them stew in death for two days then revive them."
"That seems harsh."
"I don't want killing to be entirely normalized to the point that we don't care, that's how we lose our morality. A fear of death is still prevalent, despite Elren's ability. If we aren't harsh on unrightful killing, then we will lose ourselves and become as bad as those who took our friends."
Dallel seemed to understand, but Regala had another question.
"Elren can revive the dead?"
"As long as they aren't smited."
"Interesting that Greeny got that strong."
Dallel had an odd look.
"I still can't believe that King Elren used to be named Greeny."
