[it's. definitely going to take Olivine a bit of a moment to process all that. for someone whose only concept of Godhood was a singular, dual-sided Creator, the very idea of Archons is hard to wrap his head around, and to hear him speak of them like they're just... people, really?

it isn't as utterly world-shaking as it might have been if he'd been here without at least a vague acceptance of the concept of other worlds, but he's—still surprised. not just by the explanation, but by the implication. "after some recent events," so he was... not that before? and to admit it so casually to a stranger, even if it's not exactly a guarded secret for their regions... apparently.]

... I can hardly imagine the concern you must be feeling. [it's a little gravely spoken, brows furrowing.] Even knowing that there's little we can do to fix it, I don't know that I could remain so calm, in your shoes. Forgive me, I... find myself at a loss for what else to say, haha.
