[ He parts the veil to let Dextera see —
( Egypt is a land of boundless deserts and harsh sunlight, and Set is the god of those endless sands. Under his tenure, the land became more and more barren — as if to reflect the state of his body and heart — crops withered, the sun grew in cruel intensity, the women languished and suffered and were torn to pieces by wicked men who once loved them.

When I was brought here, they had banished me and were working on restoring what I ruined. There is always a way back. Rebirth and creation is an integral part of the Ennead's duties, after all. Even the worst low will become the greatest high. To think of Zenith as dark and despairing and Meridian as hopeful and blind is patently dangerous. They are necessary to one another, to bring purpose and life to all things.
[ It is ideology that prevents them from uniting, he thinks.
And ideology that threatens Dextera's ability to rejoin his brother. ]
