Chapter 6

Schnektel had been intrigued with the religion of Ysaloerye since he had seen
Ruosti, his Drillmaster, shape stone with his bare hands. But while he
certainly had an affinity to the earth and had grown to know the ways of
combat, Schnektel was uncomfortable in approaching her, for he did not know
the rage that marked a path within her religion.

However, Schnektel's mind was reformed when he learned the rage of the
bloodthirst, the most advanced secret of the Village berserkers. In this
state, he knew the anger that had fueled hundreds of Villagers before him and
the way that rage could mold him into a greater warrior; the
focus-without-focus that made hatred into a weapon. While he still
maintained his genial nature outside of this bloodthirst, he found himself
finding more disgust in the practice of magecraft.
