The Death Goddess offered a different view:
"His fall, perhaps not...
Reality,
the pressure on you and me has surged with the expansion of the universe and the proliferation of civilizations,
because we must maintain the vast, complex, and precise order of 'existence' and 'The End.'
But Destruction is different."
She looked into the void,
