She was starting to feel like this was a doctrine difference, maybe. After all, free will wasn't exactly the focal point in her society. And with all the talk lately of prophecy and destiny, lots of people were beginning to wonder about free will at all. As the scriptures say, all of this has happened Before, and all of it will happen Again.
And then the rest of it really made her brain do loops. "So... existance is an experiment? Why would anyone design it that way?" Experiments were bad. They got people killed, so many.... But it was the talk of suffering that made her drop the pyramid ball.
"You were born to a woman who believed that suffering was good for the soul, so you suffered."
It was just how things worked. It was their burden. You couldn't change that because that was what it meant to be human. Wasn't that what she had said to Leoben? "Yeah, makes sense," she said quietly, her brow furrowed too harshly for such an plain response.
