 hen Selene the goddess of Good stepped
forward, pulling back her white hood to reveal her face.
I was revulsed by the sight, not by her charm, or her
beauty, which far surpassed any mortal beauty I had seen,
but from the things I had heard. That the ones who
followed the Good Path were intent on punishing all those
that did not follow their ways, would take away my
freedom as to be trapped in their relentless grip, but
Selene also assured me that these things were false, as I
had come to expect. Jodan once again nodded his assent,
and I felt ashamed, ashamed at what I had thought, that I
had believed such terrible things about the followers of
the other Paths. |
 elene assured me not to worry, that perhaps
there were some followers like that, so corrupt they had
become, but that the true followers, and few they were,
portrayed the qualities for which they stood. She then
explained to me how they as a group had chosen me, one
who could see all three Paths, one who worked for the
advancement of the Guild, and of wisdom, and of knowledge
of the Gods, to lead the group that they had chosen to
battle the Dark Mages. She told me that it would be a
difficult battle, and that we would most likely lose, but
that we must try. She then stepped back, raising her hood
to cover her face. |
