Raban says to Z'leyra with a smile, "I would love to have you make me
armor powerful enough to worry the gods, you can take my measurements
anytime you wish." then continues "Do you really think that armor would
change how they treat such as I? Is it not obvious that I have been
chosen to entertain them, why else would a boy training to be a great
dancer suddenly grow to a size to be ridiculed off the stage no matter
the quality of his performance? So I chose a Goddess who would love me
as well as be entertained by me and if she chooses harder tasks for me
it will be because she knows I will do all I can for her. But if a tasks
needs doing, does it matter whether you are armored or naked? You must
still do your best to achieve it. Perhaps it is the other way around,
the gods knew you had a difficult task and arranged for you to acquire
powerful tools to perform it?"
