Aa. I have no intention of trusting the god who stole me.
That’s more information about a god’s role and placement than I’ve heard before. I appreciate you telling me. Maybe a god and shinki are not so different in some respects. But neither of us were given the choice and we’re stuck in the roles someone else assigned for us. Which one is “worse” isn’t something a shinki and a god can truly agree upon though. We don’t know the other’s side without experiencing it.
I don’t like being lied to either. Even if I know it has to be that way, it doesn’t make it any easier for either side.
I’m not arguing against my own humanity. I know who I am and I have my own feelings and personality. But not all gods will see a shinki that way. They won’t care what you think about your shinki. To them, the shinki is a tool. I can have my own self as strongly as I desire, but if another god commands me, unless my own god is there to stop me, as far as I know, I’ll become their shinki until they release me. Until someone finds out otherwise, as far as I’m concerned, that’s a threat every shinki and god should be aware of and prepared for.
But I’m glad your shinki has a god that cares for him like you do. I wouldn’t be this pissed off about it if I didn’t care for my own god. I never wanted to betray him. But having that choice taken from me is never going to sit well with me.
