→Seol 18: The Heresy

The Common word good has many ambiguities. For instance, when one says the Light is good, he usually means that the Light has absolute, positive ethic value. However, if one says chocolate is good, he usually means that it brings comfort and pleasure.

We who follow the faith of the Light are indoctr taught that the Light is absolute ethic good. This belief dictates that those who utilize the Light must be good and that those who are destroyed by it must be evil. This seems a sufficient theory for humans those who live in cities under the Light, protected by paladins who shield them from the undead and lose their powers if they stray from goodness.

But at times, this theory seems to be inconsistent fall short of a wholly satisfying explanation regarding some phenomena of the larger world.

Dear Helaah,

Can you recall the happiest day of your life? Was it when we first met in the spring so long ago, separated by so many flasks and reagents that served as a catalyst for our love? Was it when you took my hand into your own and we walked those fateful steps before proclaiming ourselves as man and wife before the Light and all of Draenor?

Or was it when you first saw a baby girl staring at you from the safe refuge of your arms, far too fearless to even cry as she had emerged into a world unlike any she had experienced? I remember Astro's serene gurgle as her chubby hands stretched out to your face, seeming to reassure you as if she said, "Do not be afraid -- I love you."

Astrolabe,

Please stay in one damned place so I can find you!

And so I can bring you to our home. Our small house in the Lower City is almost finished. We and Abelar and Helaah will have our own beds and a kitchen for us. We will have four walls and wardrobes and furniture. And I have bought bowls and pans so we can cook for us and the refugees right away.

And I have bought chocolate for you. Astrolabe,

Astrolabe, come and write with me. Tell me what you are thinking.
