*Platinumfist sits looking very worn on his soapbox, which he doesnt seem to want to even stand on this day he sighs slightly and raises tired eyes to adress an achea he no longer recongnizes*
After taking a extremely small respite from the realms of achea i have returned and reviewed the last 30 or so posts by those in the realm, i am sad in a great way to see that the achea i entered not all that long ago has rapidly deteriorated in certain ways that arent exactly visible to the eye but rather to the heart.
The lands themselves have not changed, the clouds still fly high in a a stellar blue sky all day, and a incredible blanket of nature's nightlights illuminate the fablous rolling fabric of the night, the animals scurry through the same streams ande forests, and the vast amount of natural inhabitants of this realm still go about thier business until one of our adverturing brothers or sisters happens upon them to then influence thier lives maybe forever.
Yet now those same brothers and sisters who when i first entered this realm had a more content quality to their exsistances and a certain honour to their hatreds and loves alike have now changed.
Daily i must listen to those who would mew like a small babe at the slightest snag in their plans for the day (i.e. dying tends to put a crimp in said plans), or those who do not complain are then persecuted and not treated with even the respect one should give a an enemy by those who would do them harm.
This all in turn has resulted in a deterioration of the world of Achea, because while the skys, the streams, and the wildlife of this grand and fablous world does not change much, the people who frequent the realm can change.
I think that all of us, myself included sometimes, should maybe try a little harder to no necessarily love one another (though there ARE now documented marriages amoungst enemy clans), but rather RESPECT one another, its a small thing to do, and once done will help to release a more postive energy throughout the lands, for let us not remember though we may be a Serpent, a Sentaari, Occultist, Kharon, Shadowsnake, Templar, Druid, or belong to the orders of Sarapis or Gaia or Hermes or a newer Lord of the heavens, we are all one thing.... we ALL share one thing in common that bonds us all in the deepest of ways,
we are ALL Acheans, and that makes us all a cut above the normal as far as being EXTRA lucky to have found this realm, and also EXTRA lucky to be allowed to dwell in it.
With this in mind may we all find some semblance of order to our currently stormy exsitences in this wonderous land known as Achea.
Yours Humbly,
Platinumfist the Ever-Achean Monk
