RoleChapter 6 The Senseless Death of the Farmland Child Added Wed Jul 14 19:50:56 2021 at level 51:Much time has passed since it happened. For an Arial, that is. But to Amriith, it was merely yesterday. She can still smell the farmlands even if surrounded by incense. She can smell the grease from Arabrab's beard. See the shadows move as Jexer fiddles just out of the corner of her eye.
Amriith was leading a small band of Squires and Squire-hopefuls. Facing down the servants of death and sickness, she led her group into the farmlands to make a stand against Evil and all that is unholy. But in her haste to fight, she did not see the child. Given how well trained she has been, she still doesn't quite know how she missed him.
The *click* of the trap is what first got Amriith's attention. As the trap went off, and the spear came out, all Amriith could think was: "No!".
The world moved in slow motion. The light within Amriith faded for a time. And the boy was struck dead. Blood spouted from the boy like a fountain. And his eyes went white before he even hit the ground.
The fight was over, of course. The Squirelings disbanded. For they had failed. Amriith most of all.
To say this event has devastated Amriith is an understatement. It effects her as a Maran, as a follower of Einoh, and as a person. She has done a lot to make amends. She has paid money to the family of the boy. She has paid for a funeral and ceremony for the boy. She has admitted wrong doing to everyone. And she gave up her favorite item while having a much-needed trip to see Monk's grave. The Reason, which often drives her, tells her that she has done all that she can. That she should move on and focus on saving whom she can.
But the truth is: there isn't a happy ending here. There isn't a bow to put on this. She lives with PTSD from this event and it haunts her. She threw herself into combat, sometimes dieing multiple times, over this event. She made herself believe it was "For the Light", or her "Maran Duty" but the truth is: some side of herself wanted to die.
Amriith has come a long way from the 'wanting to die' phase, but she is still haunted by the event of the farmland child. She also has some much deeper scars on her forearms that have appeared in the month's after the child's death.
On a brighter note, Amriith now sees herself as a defender and continual donor to the people of the farmlands. She can often be seen talking to the farmsfolk, and giving them coin, wares, or food.
