Role

Chapter 13

Mystrillania spoke to Rarywey about her situation with the wood-elves, very
much afraid that the goddess would reject her and hate her, maybe even strike
her down. But Rarywey did none of those things, and instead listened to the
circumstances and offered guidance. She suggested first that Mystrillania ask
her spirit guide, Migrion, what he would suggest to heal a wound. Migrion said
that a wound cannot be healed by simple stitching it shut. One must cleanse
the wound, and often treat the root cause of the wounds before it can be
healed. Rarywey said that she is not they one people come to with matters of
redemption, but instead suggested I seek the guidance of those on the Tree who
are more in that vein of thought: The Wardens.

Mystrillania is good friends with the warden Feratil, a wise being if ever
there was one. And so, she sought the guidance of Feratil on the matter.
Feratil listened to what happened and gave it a great deal of careful thought,
asking Mystrillania what is the difference between she and a true enemy of the
wood-elves, because it is not thoughts that matter in life but actions.
Mystrillania suggested it was her willingness to make things right, and to
become a true ally. But Feratil disagreed.

Instead, Feratil suggested to Mysrillania that what was trulty needed was an
action equal to the one that caused the harm in the first place. Mystrillania
had taken life. What she needed to do to make it right was to save lives. She
should offer her services to the wood-elves, to place her very life on the
line for their causes. To save the lives of those people, and risk her own.
Mystrillania found great wisdom in this idea. She made her way to Evermoon and
at first sought to speak to the King's advisors. They all dismissed her
rudely. She tried to speak to the prince, but he was very drunk. Princess
Ilythia Evermoon, however, was very kind and welcomed Mystrillania, even
expressing that she feared her father might be disconnected from his wild
roots. So she will return and try to speak to the Princess again, to see if
perhaps she can make meaningful progress to heal this rift.
