RoleChapter 8 Journal #5: Unity in the Village Added Thu May 19 18:34:37 2016 at level 51:Some of the other Villagers and I decided wed go slay a dragon. While that might be an exciting tale, Im more interested in something that happened as we planned to go. One of the members in the group was Dol, an Azure of the Azure Fields, an otherworldly being. The other was Thelathelao, a duergar. Both are berserkers of the Village, both hate magic.
But as we prepared to go, Dol refused to allow Thelathelao to come. Said it was either him or the Duergar, and not both. I objected to this line of thought, since I think that goes against the spirit of the village. Dol proceeded to, predictably, get offended. He told me about how hell never work alongside dark souls.
That brings me to this journal. I want to write about unity. I want to write about what I think is part of the spirit and history of the village, something that we all have to deal with when we join.
In the histories, there is a description of the village at its prime, stated as: Every race could be seen among the village huts. Angelic beings took flight <...> tending to the village arms. Gray-skinned duergars grumbled, hammering alongside the dwarven blacksmith while aiding Grime with his wares. An ivory colored felar danced through a number of battle stances with dark-elves and young high elves alike."
What a portrait that paints! It should be obvious though. We call our home a Village. We dont call it Duergar Station or Azure Field #2, and a village is made from all different kinds. When joining the Village, you surrender your previous identity, and eliminate all those standard vices that we might hold within us to unify under a singular purpose: the war. The everlasting war against magic.
So I have a problem with the way Dol thinks. Part of the village is its familial nature. Thror worked alongside Duergar, high elves and dark elves fought the same enemy, and all of these people were villagers. These, I think, are the ideal relationships for the Village, and the histories show us that. We are not interested in squabbles between dwarves and duergar, between the light and dark, or between order and chaos we have our one concern, the Magi.
My father once told me that when you admire someone, you should try to find those traits that make them admirable and attempt to replicate them. Thror is idyllic for many of us villagers, we were raised on tales of his exploits, and on his words of our history. To emulate him, to emulate BoltThrower, to emulate the grand Battleragers of old, we have to eliminate that loathing between us and unify, as a village, against our foe. It is not truly a Village if we refuse to associate with each other, and I do sincerely think that those like Dol who refuse their brothers hand are missing the true spirit of the village.
But what do I know, Im just a minstrel.
