When it's done, the Paraduke speaks again.  "This affair is confusing.  Some might even say, alarming.  Our Lord did not forbid us from questioning you about it.  Our general instructions, however, imply a generally high degree of caution.  The Most High has guessed that, if we would otherwise press you with unwanted questions, our Lord would probably have needed to command us not to do it, given the character of His other commands.  By avoiding pressing you with questions, then, we can perhaps have saved our Lord some cost and space for other instruction."

"With that said, if there is anything you want to say about this whole affair, we want to hear it.  But you must not treat that truth as a command from the Most High.  If that were predictably the way you behaved, Asmodeus might have needed to expend greater costs to tell the Most High not to appear before you and listen silently to you, if that is something she should not do."

"In thinking this way, the Most High instructs us, we are to ignore entirely the fact that Asmodeus has already acted.  We are not to reason in any way that includes the fact that Asmodeus has already omitted to instruct us to avoid questions.  We must still act to avoid wasting our Lord's time and energy, even now that it has already been spent, because His own sight spans time and our own actions in a way that our mortal perspectives do not.  We have been cursed with free will; but we can choose not to use it, and make ourselves predictable instead."

"I can barely understand the matter, myself, but the Most High understands it better and it is she who instructs:  This opportunity to speak must not be taken by you as a veiled order from the Most High."

"If, however, there is anything you want to say about this entire affair, the Most High Aspexia Rugatonn bids me say to you in her presence that, should you have received other revelations from Asmodeus, or know of other relevant facts rendering this affair more understandable, she has not deduced on her own part that Asmodeus intended her not to hear of it."
