Erisycthon,

You know when I first read through your babbling I thought it to be
nothing more then simple whining and complaining. With a measure of
depth, I gave it a second view.

You compare your crime as insignificant compared to Mhaldor. You may
correct me if I am wrong but you are not a Divine. The Red Fog
surrounding Mhaldor was created by the miasma of Evil. I'm not saying
Mhaldorians don't enjoy our crimson surroundings, but we accept it. We
know that some forestals dislike it to such a strong degree that they
will naught but look at it. We also know that if -we- exterminate or
intentionally, as mortals, harm the forest we will be punished. This
doesn't seem to be Vengeance on the part of Oakstone, it was merely
Justice. You would do well though to learn from the teachings of
Suffering. If nothing else take your punishment like a man and stop
babbling about it.. who knows, you may even find yourself able to learn
from it and be strengthened by it. Of course the other option is that
had you not fought against Mhaldorians in the first place this wouldn't
have happened. If the second option appeals to you, find me and we'll
speak about your future.
