Higher Concerns

The god sat on a hill outside of the city, which was on fire as a direct result of the god passing through.  The hill wasn't on fire yet.  They sent me up to talk to him.

"So," I said casually, "handing out some justice, huh?"

He looked at me.  It hurt.

"Lot of... sinners down there?" I managed.

"You are fragments of nothing, wrapped in emptiness, spinning very fast," the god said.  "What you do with yourselves is not my concern."

"Well," I said, feeling blood trickle from my ears, "it's kind of a big deal to some of us."
