"He who is unable to live in society, or who has no need because he is sufficient for himself, must be either a beast or a god." -Aristotle
Either way, both are pitiable fates. The beast cannot live with society because it is feared and rejected. A monster is an entity that is not normal. A god, on the other hand, has no need for society. Humans seek connection because it gives them the illusion of being normal, of being connected and accepted by their fellow creatures. Gods are already connected. They are accepted and is acknowledged by all it rules over. But they are utterly alone as well. The world is them. They don't have a home because their whole world is their home. Meanwhile, monsters don't have a home. It's something unnatural and doesn't belong anywhere where the normal exists; it can only go where the normal doesn't exist. The question is, which one do we fear more? The one that's different or the one that has absolute power?
