(whispers)

???: I value our mutual trust.

But recently things have been... far from improving.

I know you can't answer all my questions...

And I know it sounds rather ridiculous, given that me and him are Gods, but...

Sometimes I wonder... if we'll make it in time.

Hello...? (echo)

???: Atrocious! I'm on time,  

in my best shape, wipe out a cult for our sake and still get no compliments.

Oh, don't give me that look, Akemi.

We both know you crave the details.

Relax, just a mere group of mortals went too far on the 'Gods aren't real' thing.  

Not that it offends me but preposterousness is fun to watch.

Divine can never traumatize…

Unless?

AKEMI: Shima, the countdown has begun.

SHIMA: Well... this is a  terrible time to go missing. 

What now?

AKEMI: One year.

This is all that we have.
