Unwritten Laws

I was upset, and understandably so.

Here I was, standing in the presence of these magnificent, awe-inspiring, and boundlessly powerful entities, witnessing their greatness… yet I couldn't help the rising feeling of annoyance within me.

"You're all so powerful. You could stop Legris. You could do something, anything, to prevent all the calamities he has been causing."

Yet why hadn't they acted? They couldn't even tell any of us about Legris or assist us in any way.

Instead, they remained in this perfect realm, watching as realities got destroyed as a result of Legris and his selfish actions.

I wanted to know why.

"You are reasonably upset, Jared. The one called Legris Damien is an incredibly dangerous force that even we recognise as a threat." I heard Aries say.

"Then why—?"

"Because we can't do anything about him. It's both an internal and external problem…" This time, it was Libra who spoke.
