Role

Chapter 15

I pen this scroll in response to the Harbringer missive as well as to share
our thoughts on interactions with the shaman Theorendus. Through the
discussions he believes he must find his kin which requires he continue
venturing to that place. However, in our discussions he did not speak of
shadow Admund mentioned, which is what we were attempting to stop, as
whatever passed through is not of Thar Eris. What I find interesting is that
in our conversations he did not mention anything of the shadow escaping from
the Plane, did this happen post our conversation, or was it omitted on
purpose?


Theorendus admits he will not stop, those of the Fortress will be dragged
into his personal crusade to find his kin, through defense of a fellow
lightwalker, as Admund hunts him. While zeal blinds most of that place,
Theorendus is not blinded, he is clear in his purpose for his kin, and he
prepared for the loss that will surely come from this. The shaman, while I do
not feel is an enemy of nature, does willingly cause an imbalance the cycle
by opening this portal. He does so repeatedly even after being told it will
put him at odds with those sworn to protect her.

While most of the Fortress are blinded by the light they claim to protect and
spread, some like the Cardinal, feel an unease of entering the Plane of
Shadow. Theyve not found any beings of light there as of yet, calling into
a question why the Fortress would venture there, which shows a split in their
ranks.

Regardless, we are now past the point of assumption, if
indeed this shadow being passed through to Thar Eris. Like Admund said, our
concern was that, and it occurred. If they not stop these visits to the
accursed place, then we must ensure they do not have the ability to do so.
What action must be taken, is something that will be left open to
interpretation by the Wardens. I will not ask them to battle those of the
light, the choice must be theirs. They must weigh the loss that it will cause
on their Spirit, if they harm another being of the light.


If Theorendus, is labelled to be an enemy of nature, we of the Sun shall try
to guide him back to Her, be it by blood and by word. But, the toll on the
Spirit shall be heavy, as this will likely drag other of the light into a
fight that will strengthen the other enemies of Her.
