Isaac frowned. He opened his mouth to ask what she meant, but Goddess Sylvie spoke before he could get the words out.
"I can't tell you why yet. It's something at a level you shouldn't get involved with right now."
Isaac closed his mouth and nodded. Goddess Sylvie had treated him fairly since the beginning, and she had never spoken to him with the arrogance he had come to expect from powerful beings. In fact, she spoke to him as though he were someone who stood on relatively equal footing with her.
Isaac would have honestly expected a God to look down on him. Even the neighbouring Lords who visited his City had treated him that way, believing that their greater strength gave them the right to act superior. Isaac had proved that he was not someone they could underestimate, but the truth remained that they had once been arrogant because they believed that they could defeat him if things ever turned hostile.
