In Schiller's mind, the word "atonement" no longer existed.
Once a person err, there was never a chance for regret, let alone atonement. All a person could do was to bear the endless punishment in Hell.
"If you put it that way, the Mortal World becomes a court of judgment, and everyone is a suspect awaiting trial."
Sofia let out a breath and said softly.
What Schiller said seemed so reasonable that even if she wanted to object on an emotional basis, she simply didn't know where to start.
"The Mortal World should indeed be a court of judgment."
Schiller said softly,
"If we do not judge, how can people know they are guilty? And how can we warn them not to commit evil?"
Sofia nodded with difficulty, unable to refute Schiller.
Actually,
the Fairy Queen wanted to ask:
Does good and evil really need a dividing line?
Or,
do people really have no chance of redemption?
But she knew that such questions would never shake Schiller's convictions.
