“Mortals intrigue me: their rules, their way of life. I wish for them to live on, to see how their story concludes. I have grown fond of watching their exchanges, to see how relationships unfold, what wars are won and what is lost. I wish to see the shape of their progress. Beings of such vibrancy deserve to find the end of their want.” Ievarus lowered their gaze. Perhaps there was even a tug of sadness within. “My only regret would be that I would not be able to witness this.”
