[ Silco is going to be kicking himself for not asking later, when Tezca is gone. But this is funnier so I'm not going to have him ask it, because Silco should suffer at all times.
Though the way this man (god?) says that he will be remembered certainly does feel like weight, of a sort. Silco has encountered enough gods or godlike beings now, that he understands this. He felt the weight of the Innocent's gaze upon him, and their intention against his person. He has felt the weight of he and Set's pact, the weight of a Demon's bond still weighs heavily upon the the surface of his gloved hand. He has even felt the very palpable weight of Quetz's godhood, pressed and forced against his very real mortality.
He Knows that this weight means something. It is present and real. Though if he were to put it into words, he could not. he could only watch Tezca, and understand that this was Something. ]
What good would it do, to make us so fervent toward our causes and then watch us die against another just as fervent? This serves to allow us to continue to fight, I would think.
[ That's how Silco sees it, of course. It is something he understands from Horos, and being that he's been in this Struggle for over a year now... ]
I suppose I am used to it now, even though where I am from, death is as permanent as a tattoo.
It must be quite the shock for newcomers. Even those who are gods, hm?
