If Sebek wanted him to stop the death of the city, could he truly do it by leaving the city? Could Sebek even hear his prayers if he left the walls of Metropolis?'Are you truly prepared to die Sebek? If you were, why then did you send me out to stop your death?' Who among the gods have already fallen?'Sitting down, Azot knew the rat's eyes were still upon him. They glowed in the quasi-darkness of the sewers like two small golden orbs of light; waiting to see his next action, or perhaps his next reaction.'This is beyond me...what business do I have in the affairs of gods? I thought perhaps Sebek was making a point to me by showing a wound, but now I know the truth of the matter...he is truly dieing.'Closing his eyes, Azot rested his head against the slick stone wall behind him and for a moment allowed himself to listen to the sounds of the sewers. The endless flow of water through the drains, the sound of the rats fighting over their feast on the wildlings, the lapping of the river of waste, and his own breathing.'If I do not do something, this will all come to an end. Sebek's lair will be no more and those who live beneath the city will fall quickly behind those on the Upper world.'Rising slowly to his feet, as his body was still sore from the earlier beating he had taken, Azot called out to the rat across the way."Tell yer Masters I will do it. I don't know what in the hells I am supposed to do, but I will do it all the same. Sebek has started me on this quest, but it seems his cause is not to be alone."</blockquote>
