As soon as Westheid finished speaking, the red-haired Witch before him fell silent.
"Chaos... is naturally the enemy of all Witches. The very purpose for the Ring of Clear Skies's founding was to contain and fight Chaos."
Even as she sought to seize control of the conversation, Hecate could not deny this point. She nodded and said:
"But are you suggesting that a common enemy implies common interests, that we can become friends? The Realm of Order is also an enemy of Chaos, yet they view us Witches as something even more foul than Chaos itself."
"That's due to Imperial political correctness."
Westheid replied without hesitation, "After all, in the Realm of Order, which reveres the Celestial Gods, the existence of Demons... is simply too sensitive. While you may study Demon Power for noble purposes, in the eyes of the Celestial Gods' followers, it is an unforgivable heresy. I hope you can understand this."
