I am not your enemy, Diana.
I am the only one who truly knows you.
And who truly knows them, as you now do.
They have always been, and always will be
weak, cruel, selfish,
and capable of the greatest horrors.
All I ever wanted
was for the Gods to see how evil my father's creation was.
But they refused.
I am Diana of Themyscira...
So I destroyed them.
...daughter of Hippolyta,
and I'm here to complete her--
(DIANA GASPS)
The Godkiller...
My dear child,
that is not the Godkiller.
(BLOWS)
You are.
Only a god can kill another god.
Zeus left the child he had with the Queen of the Amazons
as a weapon to use against me.
No. You liar.
I compel you to tell me the truth.
I am.

SIR PATRICK: lam not the God of War, Diana.
I am the God of Truth.
Mankind
stole this world from us.
They ruined it, day by day.
And I, the only one wise enough to see it,
was left too weak to stop them.
All these years, I have struggled alone,
whispering into their ears.
Ideas, inspiration for formulas,
weapons,
but I don't make them use them.
They start these wars on their own.
All I do is orchestrate an armistice I know they cannot keep,
in the hope they will destroy themselves.
But it has never been enough.
Until you.
When you first arrived, I was going to crush you.
But I knew that if only you could see
what the other gods could not,
then you would join me, and with our powers combined,
we could finally end all the pain, all the suffering,
the destruction they bring.
And we could return this world to the paradise it was before them.
Forever.
DIANA: I...
I could never be a part of that.
My dear, I don't want to fight you.
But, if I must...

SAMEER: Steve! STEVE: Come on, let's go!
Sammy, let's go-’
Get this plane out of here!
