Sapience,
As I sit back and enjoy reading about business as usual on this most
profound of all public mediums, I cannot help, well I suppose I could
but I am rather bored at the moment, but speak up about some logical
misconceptions that appear to be causing some confusion among these
leading sages of Sapience.
The first concerns the esteemed Lord Babel, He is certainly a terrible
and frightening God, deserving of our fear and respect, but despite
having seen the Void firsthand and being blessed with "true
enlightenment", you all can argue about that amongst yourselves
afterwards, He is no less the God of Oblivion and not Oblivion Himself.
Thus, any victory you might attain or perceive to attain against the Mad
God or His minions is ultimately just that, a victory against the Mad
God or His minions. Realistically, any action against Him, or anyone
else for that matter, at worst accelerates the spread of Chaos across
the Multiverse and at best merely slows its march. Removing a mark from
one's head proves nothing but that Gods too have limits, but then again
even Lord Babel admits that He too will one day be consumed in the Void.
Lord Babel is not synonymous with Oblivion, He is its harbinger.
Secondly, I wish to address a false dichotomy that was put forward as
well. A servant of Life has no quarrel with the Endbringer, Death is a
natural process and inevitably follows life, granting all their eternal
rest. In fact, Death and Life have a common enemy in the likes of the
Court of the Undead.
With those clarifications, please feel free to continue, and by all
means feel free to attempt to clarify my clarifications since I know
that is the custom of these public boards. I just thought I would pepper
it with some relatively unbiased commentary in the meantime.
Regards,
