[ It is, perhaps, a little obvious that Set is woefully divorced from humanity. His general impression of them all is colored by a long-standing indifference, a violent schism or divorce from what was once his root as an aloof, but protective god; Makoto gives him an admonishment that makes him sit up a little straighter, mind himself a little more. Set has always been more keen to consort with nonhumans, with those possessed of minds that were not confined to mortal parameters, but instead naturally flexible ( or, learnedly flexible ) — capable of keen observations.

He has always been an outsider, among gods and men, gazing in upon lives and experiences that he can hardly fathom. Hardly would like to fathom, until certain events forced him to regard each and every rotting, agonized soul as an individual. ]

I think, that of the overarching Factions. [ Admitted stiffly, stubbornly.

But, Makoto is also correct in a way. Makoto speaks like the demon that Set has selected to mentor him, to provide him context of humanity. ]

The individuals affiliated with both sides, are as you said.

[ No matter if he comports himself as one who cares not for that distinction, what Set says and what Set believes, or does, are often at odds. They ae contrasts among themselves, as he presents himself in one way and exists as another. To address someone terribly, yet admire their conviction, is one such way he, too, is contradictory and elusive. ]

I will always try to work across the divide between these Factions. To close off a path to myself would be foolish, and to look upon you as someone incapable of guile and cleverness would be deadly. While I also enjoy having a particular reputation, I am certain we both acknowledge that a reputation is a weapon to be wielded particularly and precisely.

[ Above all, Set wishes to learn. He hungers for knowledge, and power. ]
