I would like to trust them. Many of them seem very kind.
[But... many of the people on the island had seemed very kind, too, and a whole bunch of people still ended up dead.]
One of the people from the mansion is a friend of Ryuji's and Yusuke's. They were quite vehemently against the idea of killing people, so I believe he will be against it, as well.
[He stares at her for a moment, an enigmatic smile crossing his face.]
Aren't there bad gods in your religion, Flayn? Most religions I can think of has one, or at least, a very powerful being that stands in opposition to the rest of the panetheon. Loki, Lucifer, Saturn, Set...there's more than you think.
...no. There is just the Goddess, and she is benevolent and watches over all her children.
There were also Seiros and the Four Saints, but they... were not gods. They were children of the Goddess who sought to protect Fódlan from those who would have seen the land embroiled in war.
A traitor to the Goddess. He was gifted with incredible power to protect the land of Fódlan, but corruption and greed led him to wage war across the land and risk the lives of the very people he was meant to protect.
That's your "bad god". All gods have an enemy. This Nemesis is similar to the gods, right? He had their power? And yet he tried to destroy the people under his care. That's what I'm talking about, with these beings like the island and the house.

[Does this mean something? Who knows.]
Do you think we can trust the others? The ones who are not from the island.

[How...odd.]
What's his name?

[She thinks about it...]
I spoke to someone else who I believe was there as well, and he said that sometimes they would turn into monsters.

I met someone who had to deal with monsters as well. How odd. Monsters, spirits, gods...sentient places...they all seem so similar.

Someone pulling the strings...or, something like, there's a "god" that controlled all these other minor "gods".
no subject
But what sort of god would want to do something like this..? G—... the Goddess would never allow it.

[To play with people like they're toys...]
Someone who could care less, I think.

[It's a little disturbing to think about, honestly.]
Beings that call themselves gods ought not to treat people this way.

But in the past, they fought against Nemesis in the War of Heroes, which led to the founding of the Adrestian Empire.

Oh, she really doesn't want to think about that.]
