I am, as the more learned among you should recognize, Egeria, Queen of the Tok'ra.
And I am Ayiana, free and willing host of Egeria.
You seem to have changed a since I last was among you, yet still you claim you are gods, which you know you are not. You do know it just makes you look foolish, do you not?
I have heard a lot from my children about your behavior here, especially from my daughter, Teal'auc, and her host Johauna. It is good to see that at least some of you have managed to develop some diplomatic skills. But I still have to ask, when will you stop the foolishness of being gods, which you are not?
You goa'uld should know that when I blended with Egeria, it once again became possible for the ranks of the tok'ra to expand more properly, for already there are hundreds of newborn Tok'ra, just waiting for willing hosts to come.

greeting's egeria and ayiana
as one who has no quarell with the tok'ra and their way's i would draw your attention to the name of our race gao'uld meaning god's or children of the god's
what else would we call ourselves??? tok'ra????? i doubt even you who contest our way's and custom's can be THAT naive that all goa'uld would simply call themselves that which they revile
i myself personlly use the term god simply as reference to my brethren's name's meaning literally translated as god's, and to the fact i'm revered as a god on my homeworld how else would a primitive race even begin while in it's infancy technologically wise that we are creatures from another world, and that it's merely machines which seem to grant our immortality and weaponry and such??? even the asgard were revered as god's to the tauri at one stage *laugh's* do the tok'ra still complain to them about that??
*whispers' in reshef's ear to unsettle the tok'ra present but in reality is merely talking about what his dinner is going to consist of lol*
fact: we do subjugate world's some of us conquering and enslaving, other's like myself teaching and recruiting gaining followers who then in turn serve me in exchange i offer them the abilities to grow crop's all year round and build wonderous structures in short spaces of time for THIS reason they call me a god and perhap's when the time is right i will reveal to them my true origin, but only when the race themselves are ready for such knowledge
also tell me what is so wrong in someone like mines' approach?
being a tok'ra you would have to find a civilisation on the cusp of or having the potential of becoming the next great race in the galaxy in order to begin taking host's which understand what you are doing fully in order to consent otherwise you would simply be no better than most evil and arrogant goa'uld by misleading them the tauri seem to be your main source of host finding from what i hear
i myself find races that are primitive and struggling them and help to nurture their growth INTO a possible great race far faster than if they had to do it on their own....some would say to rush is foolish and with time all races could potentially reach the goal but, then again with the greedy and more arrogant and power hungry of my brethren the chances are they will be instead crushed and forced into slavery. one's such as myself guarantees that this does not happen
so..... i ask again egeria queen of the tok'ra how are these method's so harsh and wrong in your opinion?? how is using the guise of a god to avoid the confusion and mass panic of the revelation to a primitive race a horrifying thing when done for the right reason?
perhaps in doing so i may come across as deluded at being a "god" but still it's merely a force of habit *laugh's*
