Emotions Lost (true story)

Written by: Drained of Anger, Kohai Sergei, Undead Raven

Addressed to: Everyone


Emotions lost
In a fit of rage I attacked a shrine
Defiled and defiled
Until I saw it splinter and turn to dust
I showed no remorse

Off misguided information, I believed my actions just
It took the insight of Flowah powah
To show me that I was rash and shallow
With this I apologized to the Divine in which I attacked

She appeared before me, She made it clear she owed me nothing
But though here kindness She enlightened me
At this I offered her anything She wanted from me
Expecting death, or essence her answer surprised me

It wasn't suffering She wished upon me.
No, it was something else
Something I hadn't expected
She wanted my Anger, and my Impatience.

I didn't understand, why would a Goddess want Mortal Emotions
Nonetheless I accepted my punishment willingly
And now I walk the world patient and without Anger
But I wonder, what ever will become of my emotions

Will they be bottled up and kept forever
Or, Will they be used
What does a Goddess want with these two emotions
One may never know


Drained of Anger, Kohai Sergei, Raven of the Ashura

Penned by my hand on the 4th of Ero, in the year 401 AF.
