RoleChapter 11 Journal, Page Seven: A Spirit Made Whole, Part 1 Added Sun Sep 29 16:53:30 2013 at level 22:This journal entry is likely to be less than coherent, but I will try to piece my thoughts together in such a way they at least vaguely make sense. To start, I will say that my Spirit is beginning to reflect the things I've learned in Thera. No longer does my soul bear the taint of darkness, yet I am still at odds with my own Spirit.
My other half, I have taken to calling Yggvass. Perhaps there is something in the way Yggvass appears to me in my dreams, as that of a dark-elven woman, the polar opposite of my own High-born Elven self. Yggvass is the hunger I feel with all magic. I can no more deny the existence of this hunger in my blood, any more than I can deny that Yggvass is part of me. I have to accept her as part of myself to truly be a whole person. Were I to try to abolish Yggvass from me, I would ever be incomplete.
She is a darkness I must control without letting her control -me.- A hunger that I cannot gorge. A lust I cannot indulge. Were she to be purged, I would be little more than an innocent child weakened to the ravishes of Thera and those that would corrupt me. In accepting her as part of me, I gain an understanding of the struggle between Light and Dark. The fight between the Fortress and the forces of Darkness manifested in my own Spirit the moment I started on my path. In accepting Yggvass, I am tempered by the Darkness. Familiar with its' hungers and deceptions. In that, I am better prepared and defended against that which would try to tempt me.
