Concerning Immortality & Invincibility

"¹³Let it be known that neither was I incapable of attaining immortality, ¹⁴nor was I denied the opportunity to recieve invincibility. ¹⁵And let it also be known: neither do I respect nor resent my colleagues for having that which I refused to accept. ¹⁶In my mind I have lived my useful life, and have braved each adventure of my time. ¹⁷The adventures of the [gods] on Atlas are not mine to brave. The only adventure left for me to face is death. ¹⁸Life and death and new life- that is the cycle of time. ¹⁹And to Zeupetro: I have no regrets for that which I must do. I hope you respect my judgement."
--Ketasolir 3:13-19
When I first read the first line, I immediately thought that Ketasolir was never offered them but would have been granted them had he asked. He, I thought, would, in his usual casual-respectful manner decline to request them of the other gods. But the third verse, specifically the end of v15: "…that which I refused to accept." This shows that Ketasolir has abandoned his über respectful manner of casuality and opted for a more direct approach: outright refusal. Also, he does not respect the other gods for their immortality- indeed Gotareströng, the first invincible god, is the one person to whom he previously had abandoned his manner of casual respect. Ketasolir does not believe that immortality equates to respectability if one has had the opportunity to become immortal. But, having never had any such opportunity, immortality should mean respectability in most cases. The superlative epitome of such a case is Gotareströng, the god of destruction; he deserves very little respect. While not intrinsically evil, he approaches problems with an often-inappropriate method: destroy the cause. While he is an example of an immortal undeserving of respect, for the most part, Ketasolir is correct: a trait that you cannot possess should be respected.
