This is a question I have yet to see asked on this network, though I only have the slightest hypothesis of why.

How have you viewed religion or faith from your home? Has it changed drastically before coming here, or since?

I have been thinking about this lately...

So the gods can be misled as much as humans?

[ No way. Her mother was not misled. But Rhea was, and frankly, maybe she shouldn't have been fixing her child's mistakes...

But no, that wasn't even Ambrosine's point. Rhea shook her head to shake out the darker thoughts. ]

No, I suppose it takes perspective to truly understand the outside world. I admit I had been plenty insular as of late, before I came here.

In my world, at least, the gods may be outmatched in power, but they are just as fallible as mortals are.

Still, I've heard clerics where I'm from speak of the relationship in more familiar terms. You know that your mother or father is not perfect, and you know they have their vices, but unless they're rotten to the core, you still hopefully see them as an example.

Such as it is with the gods.

[ She just lets that thought settle in, because after a while, it makes too much sense. The progenitor god is her mother after all. Maybe it's like Byleth said. ]

I suppose it is the best way to carry on.

[ At some point, Rhea might very well confess that fact to someone outside of those from Fodlan. ]
