[More information? One new arrival, at least, has all the information she needs. The influx of energy from this one is massive, completely unsubtle, almost as if purposefully designed to attract the attention of anyone with any sense whatsoever of the divine. It doesn’t fade away nor does it seem to be easily localized. This surely wasn’t ‘Magatama Energy’…

Whatever ambiguity this might present is cleared up almost immediately. Despite that no one may be in the vicinity, the voice of a young girl sounds clearly throughout the city of Hinoto-Ri to nearly every inhabitant, as intelligibly as if the speaker were standing right next to those she addressed. …Perhaps too intelligibly. The first sound they hear is an vehement, despairing cry.]


NO!

This can’t be…! The forests… The oceans… The deserts and mountains, the tundra and the plains! W-Where are they?! Who did this?! What did you do to them?!

[For a few moments, the speaker seems too overwhelmed with ire to speak.  The sound of her breathing eventually slows...]

Humans. Look at this world. Look at it!

I knew this would happen.  In every world across every dimension, it doesn’t matter! You -- you’re all the same! See for yourself! This is what will happen if you tear through all of nature without respect for anything but your own wealth and gain! Are you happy?! My children… 100 million species. One hundred million. There's almost nothing left...

I am Viridi, Goddess of Nature, ruler of the Earth and all living things! And I will not allow this land to be desecrated any further.

They say there are monsters ravaging what remains. If you stand against them, then... heed the command of a goddess and CRUSH them!

Tch.

Humans were made to be the masters of the planet, at least in my world. Perhaps not in yours - but the fact remains that they are extremely efficient as a species in terms of pulling resources they need from the environment. Are there too many of them? Probably.

However, as a goddess of nature, you should recognize the nature of an evolving species. Humans change and adapt quickly - as all life does. Goddess or not, who are you to say that this isn't the natural progression they should take? Would it be better if another species were as efficient and ruthless as humans? I doubt it. There will always be someone at the top of the food chain. If it weren't humans, some other species would be just as ruthless towards nature.

Because I know more than most humans. I've seen enough gods fall in my time from foolishness or simply being overpowered.

Even if you attempt to wipe them out, you'll never be successful. A god will never understand the depths a human will go to simply to survive. No matter what you do, you can't stamp them out. It's already too late for that.

Sacrificing babies is generally frowned on nowadays, yes.

[... He grins a bit at that.]

When they use the powers of summoned demons they do, indeed, have at least a decent chance.
