[It's truth and she knows it, even as she listens to what Yuume says. She wants to believe it. She honestly does Yet... Yet something about the way Yuume talks makes her uncomfortable. Calling it a waste. Perhaps from one view, that is waste, yet to someone who's grown up amongst a world of monsters and their non-standard diets...
She has to wonder. Have Yuume's people lost touch with all the uses something can have? It seems like it to Eva, and she can't say that seems like a world she'd like to visit.]
I... Forgive me, but that seems a very black and white view, and the example you gave is a very simple one and it doesn't take into account that the charred ashes can be mixed into a crop's soil, more so if the gods doing it believes they've taken everything of value. [It makes sense, right? most people would think what good is a pile of charred ashes.
Answer: Actually pretty useful.]
Plus, for all who can turn to these alternate means, there will always be those who cannot for whatever reasons. I don't know; are these sacrifices like feeding them? And, how do you know it is 'waste'? A thousand per-cent waste that can't be used any other way? Do you know they can turn to alternate sources like the other gods?
[Eva inhales.] I want to understand, is all. I can't be there to ask these beings the questions myself, nor offer them anything for the chance to ask... and assuming isn't... Well. That makes birdshit out of us.
[And she's worn it enough times in her life to Not Like It.]
