Role

Chapter 6

Spire, and as he made his change I became motivated to speak with him to see
if he had any interests in serving as I did.

So when he lost his wicked aura from conversations with Corrlaan, we spoke at
length about what service to the Spire meant as it relates to protecting and
serving the innocent. He said he had aspirations of becoming a healer and I
thought that was perfect. What better way to help usher this spirit to a
place among the Light then by direct guidance in service to others?

He agreed that the Spire was a very noble place of service and he agreed to
serve with all of himself until the end of his days. On his first day on the
path he made a mistake and flagged an Imperial he should not have out because
he thought he had taken items from a corpse and he was biased against
Imperials. We spoke about the need to lose these thoughts and emotions, that
justice must be even tempered and fair. We moved him to Seantryn Modan so
he'd better have a chance of learning policies and procedures before going
back to more active duties in other places.

Now he's written a missive that he is leaving the Spire. In one note he has
begun to unravel everything I was working towards. He has proven that you
don't have to be evil to be Finley, that others can leave the Spire on a whim
just as easily regardless of oaths of lifelong dedication. I believe he
wishes to join the Fortress because it represents an 'easier' path towards
turning his soul completely to the Light. I do not think he truly appreciates
the amount of 'good' that can be done as a Magistrate, he only knows that
the Fortress does more 'good' directly. In my opinion he is turning his back
on everything he has worked towards and everyone who has helped him get to
this point. Although I'll admit I'm hurt and bitter as I write this because
this is one of my first direct betrayals. Though I am to blame for not
instilling in him enough sense of purpose and faith that he is on the right
path.

I've asked that he withdraw his missive stating he wishes to leave until he
speaks to me, maybe it isn't too late.
