RoleChapter 3 No more ale, I'm done. Added Tue Jan 24 16:34:00 2012 at level 21:Yes, yes, you're right. I'm talking more than usual. What was it you said, I'm not my usual laconic self? Well you drink a case of this Proudfoot ale and you see just how chatty you become. What's that? Yes, it felt good blooding my weapons on the corpse of that first mage. Maybe too good. I don't know about you but I didn't grow up wanting to be a killer. And now that I must, I will do it as well as possible, not because I enjoy death but because if you're going to do something, do it right. And if that something is very worthwhile, if it's so important both personally but for a larger world, then you have to be the best, to take what is usually ugly and dark and make from it something beautiful, something to admire, something hard as steel with few if any flaws. I wonder sometimes if Gregr would want this for me, for my life. Before he became what he did at the end I mean. And I think probably not. Who wants this life for a sister? But I think he would understand. And wherever he is, I know each drop of blood from the dangerbringers - that's those that use magic as mortals - becomes good strong ale for him to drink in his new life. Still, even after bringing death to others, and knowing it myself, my mind goes back to that first kill, that moment. I don't think I'll ever forget that. I know that the day will come when my blade slices through a different sort of mage, not a vile necromancer like the first, but rather one who thinks she's doing the work of goodness. I don't look forward to that. But better that than the danger magic brings. And hopefully after they fall and they hear my words, they will change their ways. No one said it would be an easy path, but it must be trod. Magic is not a tool like others, like a weapon or anything else. Only magic can cause such widesweeping and unforeseen consequences. Those who claim magic is merely a tool are deceiving themselves, and must be set aright, or removed. A sword never destroyed an entire town. An axe never killed an entire race.
But I haven't answered your first question. Yes, I know that with the battleragers I'll have to live side by side with filthy duergs and slimy dark-elves and truly abhorrent fire giants, among other filth. I tell you now I do not and will not like it, and will find a hut as far on the other side of the village from such as I can. But am I a cow or an animal? Can I not think, can I not decide when to use my weapons? I will share the space and the war with those who like me have come to the wisdom of magic's danger. I can withhold my hand until the day all magic is gone. Perhaps then there may be a reckoning among those who remain to battle for light's way or dark. Until then, I will do my duty. But no, don't you expect to hear tales of Blectl traipsing through the dale with her duerg and dark- elf friends. That day will not dawn.
