Questioning the Divinity of Intruders
Elinu, the High Priest
And that is not all. The king has shown weakness and poor judgement. He believes in the divinity of these intruders. Dealing with the divine is *our* office. If we abandon the smallest particle of it to outsiders, our position will soon come to naught.
Priest
But, are these outsiders not divine?
Elinu, the High Priest
No, they are mortal. Do they not eat when they are hungry? Do they not sleep when they are weary? When the guards attacked them, did not their faces show the fears of mortal men?
Priest
But, do they not possess the power of heaven?
Elinu, the High Priest
Aah. The cylinder they carry possesses it. If you had that cylinder, or you, or you, you could use it too. And if it is the power of heaven, is it not we who should possess it? And use it to control the beasts of the dark, the people and... yes, if need be, even a faltering king himself? You will therefore follow these intruders wherever they may go, and bring me that cylinder.
