lacksconviction[This is a tentative post, and Loki's voice has the faltering quality of a man who suspects he may be talking to himself:]
Admiral? There are questions I have which I do not believe anyone else here is qualified to answer.
First among which may be the most futile of them:
Are you listening?
[EDITED IN LATER: Public]
[Hey Barge, Loki is just going to make this conversation with the Admiral, fully public.]
I must indeed be becoming tiresome with my questioning today, because I have one more. This one for the wardens, for those of you serving this man willingly:
Why?
Yes, I have asked before, and yes I've heard answers. For your deal, for your inmate, for the sake of doing some good in the universe, but I wonder how you justify it to yourselves. To serve an entity who not only is little known, but actively refuses to surrender his intentions, the masters which he serves, or even the reward which he will reap for his work in controlling all of us.
I have been told by many among you that he is not a God, but what other beings deal in secrecy and souls?
Why are you content with this?
Prey tell me, that I might lay to rest my fears about what more this place is, than just a prison.

[There has been a significant shift in tone since the last message. He sounds... extremely tense. You kind of just made him think that the barge is some kind of processing machine for some god-like being to consume the freshly reformed souls from.]

What exactly is it that makes you so adverse to those here who are obedient to you, or subservient to you even against their will, knowing the design of the great machine through which we're being worked?
