Lubei
The demon's head jolted upright, and he listened transfixed to the stream of words that spilled from Uria's lips. It was the most extensive explanation that Lubei could ever expect to receive from the god-child. It was a struggle to find where his response should begin to a tale that sounded as outlandish as it rang true, like the speaker had been there to see it.
"The things you say... should be familiar, but aren't as I know them." On cue, the raptor that followed him like a shadow settled on his knee, waiting, and Lubei crossed it with a faint glare before continuing.
"There is without doubt, a weight that pushes souls from one life to another. And, they say, even gods are bound to its providence. But can a soul truly become lost even to the wheel of reincarnation? I don't believe individuals are equal, but I don't grasp how something so fundamental can be biased." He breathed in. "What I do know, is that merits and sins alike hardly amount to anything if you lack the luxury to live freely."
A slight voice floated in, its owner looking him in the eye. "Are people unequal, or do their fates differ because of circumstance and inevitability? Do you want to be equal, or to be fair?"
Lubei looked back, considered it for a second, then closed his eyes.
"If you wish to give those vagrants a choice," he said, firmly. "Then I will watch over that."
