Role

Chapter 1

I have been meditating on the rede of death.
I felt I knew it well, in fact my knowlidge of it was enough to please the Crone.
Yet the Goddess mentioned something to me recently, you see she gave me a quest, I did well.
Well, it lead to a ritual that would cause me to live longer, and she told me to remember
to not fear death. The fact that she mentioned this made me think, that perhaps I needed to
think more about it. And so it was, I have meditated on it long.
And I watched the flowers and the animals, I looked once again to nature for the answer.
And what I saw was that it all was there for a reason. From the smallest bud of grass,
to the largest of trees, they all have a specific reason for being
And so then do I! Being born at this time, in this form, feeling the connection with the
Maiden at such a young age, this all cannot be an accident.
Perhaps I was born to help clean the water in the north east, maybe I was born to
clear the friged waistland of it's taint. Maybe my existance at this time has something
to do with the recent growth of the Empire. Maybe I was born to spread the word of the
Goddess, or to plant some trees. Perhaps it has nothing to do with any of these things,
or maybe it is a combination of them, I do not know.
The point is that whatever it is I was born to do, somewhere way deep inside, there is a longing.
I know I have not done it yet. This is why I am not ready to die. When I do, do whatever it
is I came here to do, I will be happy to feel the Crone, and follow the Raven.
