That's a mistake. You're not keeping the situation fully in mind. Remember that it started because I saw Nack in the Inn, started killing the innguard, and then *stopped* when I saw Iunna there. The whole conversation ensued exactly *because* I had already demonstrated respect for her and her power.
*She* chose to talk about it and ask me a direct question. I responded and she knew why. Had she ever said "Don't touch the inn guard or I'll kill you" then I would have said "Ok, you're the goddess and I'm the mortal." Just like later I said she could do whatever she wants. Never questioned or challenged her ability to do anything. But once she made it clear she wanted to discuss it, are you saying I shouldn't have? This wasn't our first meeting, remember, we had a past.
And all I told her was that Nacklewig would die. I gave her, out of respect for who she is, the choice of whether I do it in the inn, or somewhere else in thera.
Now, if she said "Never touch Nacklewig" or something like that, yeah, maybe I'd have had a problem with that. Invoke our own gods, whatever. But as it was all I did was tell her that the mortal would die and if it offended her for me to do it in the inn, she had the option to send him out. I left it entirely up to her. How is that anything but respectful?
