"I have no idea what you think you're doing," says Alleluia, "but I hope you know."
Isabella says, "Everything makes sense now. I've always thought that when Jovah did things - or failed to act - in ways that seemed incomprehensible and wrong to me, then the mistake was on my end. After all, he was divine and I was only - not a mortal, but still just an angel and not a goddess, so surely he was right, he had some reason that I just couldn't understand. But no. He was built by people no smarter than I am, even if they knew unfathomable technology. They weren't more moral or more farsighted, they certainly didn't have special abilities to predict the needs of the next six or seven centuries of Samarians, and they had less ability than I have now to deal with the problems they did recognize to be problems. What do I think I'm doing? I think I'm going to learn everything he has to teach me and then I'm going to do his job. Better."
