“In the barest basics, I believe that though we can – and should – get close to the gods, it’s impossible to understand them or the full nature of the universe, so we have to build a society that is best suited to our needs. And as a disciple of Allalae, that means I think we’re allowed to use whatever we want to make ourselves as safe and comfortable as possible, provided that we don’t damage the natural world or hurt one another in the process. – ” ― Sibling Dex’s explanation of Essentialist philosophy (from A Prayer for the Crown-Shy by Becky Chambers)
