"But why I am [i]I[/i] here. Isn't there, you know... Heaven?" She asked, looking at Mortar with a hint of sadness in her eyes

Honestly... *mortar runs through his brain, trying to think of whether there is or not* ... To be honest, I don't know. I've been bred down here for so long, and, I don't know if there is a heaven or not. All I know is what a friend of mine, Amanda, told me, and it was that there is a type of heaven that only the gods and their Celestials live, and that is where they watch over. The God of the Underworld was not worthy however, and him and his spawn were cast away here. I am very sorry, Nora. I really am.

"Meh not your fault. Guess we should have been more religious. Not my fault for being an atheist. Raised from the dead and all." She laughed a little bit, obviously trying to lighten the mood
-
*Mortar chuckles too* I'm an Ex God. I can't get more religious. But in all seriousness, if I can kill my father in the next couple months, I will get you out of here and try my hardest to get you to become a celestial. Or at least treat you better.

"You need any help taking the bastards down, feel free to give me a call. Alright?"
-
*He beams under his scratchy beard* Of course. Likewise. Oh, and if anyone but me tells you to come with them, don't. Okay?
-
"Already broke that promise. Had to find these guys." Nora said, gesturing to the Dight behind her
-
You know who I mean. People that you've never met. Tenders of the Spirit. And not Chicken Tenders, these guys will suck the ether right from you if you try to eat them
-
"Sounds like a load of fun." Nora said with a flat chuckle
-
Just peachy. *He sighs a little, looking about the room* Oh, one more thing. Before you... died... did you see Smough? How was he?
-
"No, I'm sorry to say that I did not see him. I haven't seen him in quite some time actually." Nora said, obviously somewhat sadly
-
Oh, okay. Well, sorry then. *He gives Nora a quick hug again, trying to make her feel better again. It is hard, since she is dead, but, knowing Nora, he knows she can cheer up a little quicker than others
-
"Anyway! I should probably start heading out soon..." A few moments into the hug she pulled away, looking back at the Dight
-
Yeah, probably...
-
"It was nice seeing your Mortar... It's been too long..."
-
Agreed, and I'm sure we'll see each other again
-
"Of course we will. I'm dead. You're an ex God of this place."
-
Yeah, that's true, that's true. And hopefully God and King if the second half of my plan down here works out
