I believe you. [and she does, that's genuine.] His instinct is that mortals will come to him and blame him for whatever evil has happened. I do not think he started that way, but time has turned him bitter. Now, it is easier to play the part.
That being said. [here, she's annoyed.] He didn't do himself any favors. So it isn't as if he can complain.
My story...it's about staying on the path and being afraid of strangers. You know, teaching children to listen to their elders and be careful. I met a wolf, and he tricks me into wandering into the path, and then he steals ahead to my grandmother's cottage and eats both of us.
Yeah, you don't have to tell me twice. My story is dumb, and these days the Big Bad Wolf and I are buds! [...] Well, he's a god, so it's a little hard to tell. But I think he likes me.
The thing about trust is, it can mean a lot of different things. You can trust someone in one way or not in another.
...Yeah, yeah. You can like and admire someone, but know that they aren't on the same side as you. Or the other side; you can trust someone to have your back, but know they might still lie to you or hurt you in other ways. Ways they might not even mean.

I'm supposed to learn to be wary of the wolf, even if he seems nice. But I didn't...want to judge Rang Lee too soon.

Sometimes a story isn't the whole picture. It's easy to make a bad decision when you haven't heard every path.
You don't need to trust him. I wouldn't.

I agree. You can also appreciate someone and where they come from, and still know that they could run a sword through you at any time.
