I find it most interesting how people act and react when under duress. As mortals, humans, whatever race, sometimes it is easy to blame an omnipotent God than to face our misdeeds or worse, face yourself. So here I wish to elucidate for you by discussing your public article, which is written under the influence of tumultuous emotions.
You state: "I wanted an apology for killing me out of turn and without any cause." It seems the cause is quite obvious and you missed it. This point aside, you also lost your manners. What a hard lesson to learn at the hands of a God when one's parents have failed. Even worse, you find yourself in the same situation again and again until you find your lost manners. Amusingly enough, I recall from my childhood my parents always saying, "You will always create the same sticky situation for yourself until you learn the lesson life means for you." How correctly applied to you. Did your death teach you anything?
You state: "I wanted You to take responsibility for Your unjust actions." Despite the gravity of your purport, your entire event lands with extended theatrics. They bothered to clarify your misunderstandings when They didn't need to.
You state: "You asked me a question aloud after I had a private thought to myself." Here I find your ideas most curious for you have failed to understand the nature of Gods and in particular This One. The God of Water not only commands and controls all liquids but is also of the element, therefore, by basic deduction is very much a part of you. If there is no water in your body you would die. Now, knowing this, tell me, how close is Slyphe to you when your blood is mostly Theirs? How easy would it be for It to know every deep and shallow thought of yours? Quite simply, if you want to have a private thought, don't think it out loud. Even monks can hear surface thoughts which you choose to share. How ridiculous a claim to have a 'private surface thought' when you willingly shared it.
You state: "..your question baffled me with its seemingly ignorant assumption of mortal struggles." Contrary to your belief, They not only have proven to know you so well, by how some of Them manipulate you while others of Them guide you, you seem to assume your plights are so unique to yourself.
Finally, you state: "Instead of an apology for the wrong against me, You have seen fit to divert responsibility by publically blaming every woman who has fallen to death and lost an unborn in the process." Like I said when I first sat down to write this quick little thing, the death of your unborn child is not any Gods fault. While it is sometimes helpful to sit back and blame a God for your miscarrying of your unborn child, it the blood is on your hands. Do you so easily forget the voice of the Creator, Varian echoing in your soul when you are graced with yet another chance at life telling you to try again? Do you come back missing an appendage or an eye or somehow missing an organ? Do you come back a mutant and rearranged?
Dare you to burden and try to guilt my mother with your misfortunes and inability to work well with others of the Light again and you will have more woes to sing of.
