@Aro,

Both the chief god and Lilith believe they are right. Now I agree they are going about their goals the wrong way but the chief god is talking about the genocide of an entire sentient race in order to return the world to her idea of what is the 'status quo'. I take immense issue with the idea of genocide as a viable solution, and will as such oppose the chief god in whatever way I can (including force, unfortunately.)

Admittedly Mamono not being able to bear male offspring is a problem and a looming threat but Lilith in Canon is working to fix that problem. (She takes a more hands on approach in my novel to fix the problem. Since I took issue with her whole laissez faire mindset, I reshaped her to be more motherly and less of a prude.)

At the end of the day though if we take everything down to basics both ladies are being reactive instead of proactive. They are reacting out of fear and anger not out of logical and well reasoned plans. So it is no wonder that they are both a smidge crazy in Canon.

The chief god fear is because because she sees a threat to her power and command structure. She wants to stay on top and in charge. At worst the safety of Humanity is an afterthought to her, and at best a nice bonus.

Lilith's fear is a tad (note I said a tad) more understandable. The chief god wants to not just kill her and her husband but also erradicate her entire species. Lilith's fear is born from a place of overprotective anger and resolve. Like a wolf snarling at a predator to protect her pups. It is not rational, it is more instinctual than anything.

If they truly wanted to settle their differences I am sure they could be made to do so. But the fact remains that both ladies are locked in a specific mindset (for better or worse) and have been for many millennia and almost nothing will change that.

Just my thoughts.

Cheers,

The Weary TimeLord.
