Now you are somehow more confused than ever, your expression a picture of bewilderment as you turn your tear-streaked face up to Delphi. "But... but if only the dead ones don't have souls, why's it so important to get 'em?" It's true: you rather thought that what she'd meant was that there were not souls in the living bodies, that the Ascendeds were somehow mere lumbering husks. If they do have souls, though, you're less alarmed.
Death and what happens then has never held much interest to you.
Sitting back onto your bottom you wipe your face, leaving tracks of dirt. "Is that really bad?" you wonder innocently at Delphia's assessment, noticing her dark expression but still failing to fully understand the issue. "If the Voice needs 'em to stay alive it makes sense she'd collect 'em. Is it really so much worse'n any other predatory creature?" If she isn't even killing people, or taking their souls while they're alive, are her actions really so awful? Or are they just evolutionary advantages that humans fear because it makes them prey?
