I have been to countless worlds in far worse shape than here. A demonic world of artifice, a cosmos ruled by petulant gods, a planet-sized prison for all-consuming horrors... in the grand scheme of the Multiverse, this plane is one of the most idyllic I’ve seen. Even if I take your statements of chaos at face value.

I am a Planeswalker. A term that should be self-explanatory.

Homura: (small nod) I can surmise. There are certainly worse places one could end up in at the whims of the universe.

-Graham trudges along the upstairs hallway, looking at the various doors as he goes-

......Which one was my room, again?.....

Indeed. But we are not victims of cosmic fate - on the contrary, the meddling of Planeswalkers tends to affect each universe at large. For better or for worse.

(yuh oh, Graham, scary bald guy talking about scary plane people)

...From a mortal’s perspective? Worse. Definitely so. Well, unless you’ve lived a fulfilling life and can die without regrets.

-He looks up, noticing BALD in conversation-

....!!

-Looking around in a panic, he quickly ducks into a nearby room, peeking out ever so slightly-

...

(Strythos doesn’t even look back, like he’s now used to the cues of Graham’s presence around him (namely, the sounds of Panic around him))

Some Planeswalkers style themselves as guardians of their planes. Some even live as gods, despite being an existence surpassing actual divinity. But when you become immortal, you begin to think on a... planar scale.

-Your telepathy gets no response, Homura, not even a reflexive startle-

.....?.....

-Graham, oblivious to their awareness of his presence, listens to Strythos speak-

-...'Beyond godhood?'....What was he talking about....?-

Gods are terrestrial by their nature. Powerful as they may be, they cannot leave their universe by their very nature. They subsist on it - they are laws given form.

...right, mechanical?

Hallway

Homura: (thinks for a moment, lifts her head in understanding) Master of their domain, but not beyond it.

(looks over at Graham again, momentarily confused as to why there was no response at all until she realizes, takes a moment to consider whether to try to force him out)

Again, apologies, Josh.

A sun god has domain over the sun. A death god has domain over death. A Planeswalker, on the other hand, can easily develop both with a little bit of preparation.

-Graham shifts uncomfortably in his spot, deliberating silently on the topic at hand....These plane guys were even freakier than he thought...-

(half-chuckles, half-snorts)

I’m not going to go that far. This plane isn’t mine, and I don’t have any interest in changing that.

Homura: (quietly slides her feet closer to Graham's position) All we have is your word on that as of now.

-He narrows his eyes in solidarity, still convinced he is hidden-

-Yeah, you tell him, middle school girl. Two things you can't ever trust: Super-Gods, and bald guys...-

That’s the only currency worth anything here, isn’t it? Without money or walls, all that protects the people here is faith.

Homura: (another slide step towards Graham) ...perhaps.
