[She folds her gloved hands in front of her face Gendou pose she probably ripped off from someone, book at the side neglected.]
Your profile made me think of it, actually. The way it talks about the piece your business is named after. I learned it when I was studying painting in France. The story goes that Saturn didn't eat his own children just because, but because he feared a prophecy that they would overthrow him. One that came true when his wife betrayed him and spared one of the sons, who grew up to slay him and revived his immortal siblings. Victimized by his own victims, as it were, and all because he struck out at what he was afraid of.
We may be going about this all wrong. As a group, I mean. All this wondering about what our captors have to gain, what power or prestige our deaths pave the way for that would be worth the investment and the risk. Maybe we should be asking: what are they so afraid of?
