And heart is my path in the light, as I mentioned in regard to following Jormyr, but
there's another side to it. The war will, and in fact already has, put me where I am face
to face with not just a goodly mage, but a goodly conjurer. Or at least one who thinks of himself
as goodly. I can understand doing as they do when they don't realize what they really
are doing. They all think their summoning is somehow this nice little thing, just some invitation
to the Fields for a small vacation on thera. The arrogance! The stupidity!! Why then their
magic circles? Why the binding?? But even so, their delusion might explain how they think
they can be goodly even though they do as they do. But once I explain, with personal first hand
knowledge of the actual truth, what does it mean when they simply don't change? They are so
enamored of the magic and the power it gives them that they deliberately reject the truth, even
when they now know it and can't pretend not to understand. What does it mean about them? Are
they still truly good? Are they still truly walking in the light when they know their work
violently kidnaps beings and makes them slaves, just like the empire does??
To me it seems like it makes them less than good. How long before their repeated, constant refusal
to change makes it clear that only violence will have a chance to make them, force them, to change?
To stop this horrible evil theft of souls?? I don't know. But I see that day coming...
