GOD: ALMIGHTY AND ALL-POWERFUL SUPREME BEING
GOD: AT THE END OF TIME AND SPACE
GOD: ALL OF THIS AND MORE IS MINE TO CONTROL
GOD: EVERYTHING BENDS TO MY WILL
GOD: TIME TO LISTEN TO SOME PRAYERS, SEE WHAT THE USELESS HUMANS WANT FROM ME NOW
Prayer: Can you please make The Division be out already?
GOD: SOME THINGS ... ARE BEYOND EVEN MY POWER
