[ It was Aizen's turn to look at the other man. He didn't show any of his surprise. There was only interest, presumably in what he was saying. ]

Is that how it is in your world?

[ Aizen smiled as he returned his fellow god's words. He didn't let on that the man had basically just confirmed what he already knew about him. That wasn't important right now. ]

And if we were never human to being with? If they don't even know we exist? What then?

[ Not entirely true, but Aizen was making a point. He let the silence stretch a moment before resuming. ]

Nothing is unattainable, my dear fellow. That is the talk of a defeated man.
