Role

Chapter 2

The curiousity within me burned to be let free. What was I here but an
observer of a minor house with older sisters who will become the house
Matriarch and leave me where I am? I had to have a change if I were to know
more. I began to sneak out and see how other beings within Teth Azeleth
behaved. Did they have similiar ways of behaving to those I had already
observed? I approached some lowly orcs, little more than beast of burden
really but they did have a certain cunning and intelligence to them. I
observed them for a time and came to find they had no joy. Can they still
have joy? Can that passion light their eyes? I began to experiment with them.
I'd bring some fresh meat and have them fight eachother for it. The winner
would get the meat, and the loser would go away beaten. However, the next
time I came with the meat, the beaten one would be back again, hope in his
little piggie eyes. Even though he was worse off than he was before this
situation, he was more excited by the prospect of change! This was a
breakthrough for me as I learned that negative influences create an
environment where positive possibilities are more fullfulling. I had to know
more!
