The mortals of his world did not exactly have power ( that was the duty of the gods, after all ) and served their deities dutifully, but never in his millennias of existence would he ever imagine that any of his kin would even begin to think of ruling mortals in such a way. Nor would even he, notorious human-hater, think to treat them like domesticated animals. Animals had their own intelligence, as humans did, but conflating the way the two were kept? How obscene. ( He wonders if the madness he encouraged while he ruled might have come to this, if Horus had not deposed him. Horribly, he cannot think it would not have. ) ]
No, that... was informative.
You had no power or control, so rather than yield to the hopelessness of your situation, you engineered relationships and dynamics with others that allowed you have it. You were part of a community of depravity, and as with every community — the shared experiences allowed you to circumvent the difficulties.
I was aware of the acts that men could inflict upon one another in the absence of women, but your situation involves similar elements — and comfort, instead. So much so, that you feel uncomfortable with women... hm.
Would you say you could have done the same, if you had been alone?
