#46, "New Sphere"


          

Neltouda will now be covering sphere Spirit. The new helpfile is as follows.

Within all those who are blessed with free thinking minds resides a unique and vibrant soul. Enthroned within our physical forms, it is the structured force that moves the consciousness. As wild as a raging storm, and as organized as a strophic song, the overwhelming drive of those who are called to seek out the Lady of Storms are great in personality as well as a desire to know more than just a few strands of the great tapestry of existence in Thera.

Those who believe they have the strength of spirit to join Lady Neltouda’s crew find themselves driven by the rhythm of the storm, be it internal or external. The beating of thunder and claps of lightning consume their being, driving them to expel the raw force.
While all members will not be a Terror of the High Seas, they will all hold a sense of adventure and need for challenge within their souls. The thundering pulse drives them to ceaselessly move like a gale of wind. They explore the ins and outs of the world to share with others their tales of glory and near escapes, bringing with them riches of significance to prove their conquests and sooth the rumbling storm.

Some followers pride themselves on releasing the storm with great works of art and boisterous compositions. They pour the intense emotions of the storm onto their desired canvas from rage, to swells of sorrow and unchallenged joy. Their delightful creations are often seen as abstract and bold, a viewable tall tale, like the unique path a tornado weaves or the unpredictable eruption of a volcano.
As the reverberating pulse of the storm calms, so do the spirits of the crew. In this calm followers of the Lady Tempest enjoy a time of relaxation and reflection upon her floating ship. They revel in their stolen riches, share their tales, sing bold songs, and enjoy fine ale and general merriment.

Or maybe both?

As wild as a raging storm, and as organized as a strophic song, the overwhelming drive of those who are called to seek out the Lady of Storms are great in personality as well as a desire to know more than just a few strands of the great tapestry of existence in Thera.

Maybe an extra coma? What specifically did you think is confusing?

As wild as a raging storm, and as organized as a strophic song,

First part seems ok. The next part doesn't make sense to me, though.

the overwhelming drive of those who are called to seek out the Lady of Storms are great in personality as well as a desire to know more

It seems to be saying to me that the "overwhelming drive" "are great in personality." I assume you mean "those who are called ... are great in ...." If that's what you mean, then I'm not sure how "the overwhelming drive" fits in.

I'm nowhere close to an english major or anything, though. This could all be in my head.
