What the Light is Not

Seeing how there has been no satisfying progression made on this matter - many, likely not even knowing. Ignorant of the things happening around them, disclosed in quiet, swept under rugs.

I have to take matters into my own hands, then.

Will You admit to Your mistakes, this time? Goddess of Fire. I have a lesson for You - it is about the Light that You have falsely claimed to be.

The Light is not malicious nor unkind. It simply is. It is Pure, it is Generous and Merciful. It is not Cruel, but it can be harsh. Some lessons are best learned that way. More importantly, the Light is above all - it can never be fully embodied by any - not a mortal, not a Divine.

It certainly does not exist within One Who thinks it amusing, or enjoyable, or even RIGHT.. to Torture, mock, and Kill a mortal that had long been in fervent service to the Light's cause.

Was it because of the poor history between You and him?

Was it because You thought him unworthy?

He was lost in his faith, and instead of restoring it to him, you tore the last remnants from his spirit.

I care little about Your reason, and even less about Your opinions of the man. I only care about what Your actions speak to. You misrepresent our cause in such a way, when You of all should be holding to a higher standard. What is the rest of Sapience to think, when a Goddess proclaiming the Light brings the same suffering of Her Sister, the Dark Goddess?

Did You realize that Your decision to behave in such a way is antithesis to the Light?

What am I, and all others who recognize this for what it is, to think. To do? Ignore it? I will not. Shall I continue to let the members of my Monastery share allegiance and worship a Goddess as such? That very question is one I am still considering the answer to.

You've pushed them further into the Darkness that we work so hard to pull people from. This will never be right. This is not the Light.

You are not the Light. You may be Fire, and it may cast a shining brilliance - but You are not that which You have claimed You are.

.. Oh, and let us not forget Your threat to the couple You pryed a child from - I heard it, I was present. You'd devour a child if You were not given the essence You desired as payment? Children are not currency for bribing or blackmailing. They are living beings with the same rights as any other. I understand You've returned the child to it's parents - will You make this right as well, or will You overlook the results of Your actions?

Your Sister - the Beast - Who played Her own part in this, is no better. But I already knew that much.


- In Light and Truth,
Khimaira Nola
