The Final Question

[Gildarts]

Christa read between the lines, Omni seemed to be amused. Write it down?! The answer was yes or no, completely absolute but it seemed after observing the deity here, that there weren't always absolutes to be had. Even perhaps for her, she was still in the process of deciding, and that was the reason Omni offered no absolute answer.

"Have you ever had a sibling you've cared deeply for?" The woman's eyes dipped for a moment, her thoughts fell back down on where the Omniverse was compared to her current location -probably below her feet. Once, Christa had thought that gods could see the future, perhaps it was not that simple. Time was not one line of cause and effect... But simply a big ball of - well, that didn't matter.

"I'll explain my answer to you Omni, if I were to have my sister returned to me, I would want some way to protect her, and should she fall victim to the chaotic and rather destructive world we now live in, I would need some way of returning her to what I would consider... Katia's almost natural state." Christa considered her words, "Without the aid of a being such as yourself, 'cause getting here wasn't exactly a stroll, I'd need to have access to bring her back. So, that's the hint." But I'm not ready, not quite yet..

"However, even though accepting Primehood is a curse, I'll gladly bear it for my sister, but I ask that you offer me something of equal value. Tell me one last thing," Christa leaned a bit closer, her voice trailing as a hoarse whisper that none of the others could hear..

"What's your secret?"
