A call for sanity, and a morsel of Truth

Perhaps, what I am about to say will cause many to hate me. Maybe the
only reason I can say it is because of my position in Achaea, and my
perspective. But I will say it because I beleive it.
Before I begin, I want to make sure people Understand. No mortal can truly
understand a God. We merely make deductions on the parts of Their Truth that
we can comprehend.
Mortal involvemnt in the war between Aurora and Twilight is wrong.
Both Aurora and Twilight are Gods. They represent concepts that are defined
as the opposites of each other, the lack of one creates the other. They
stand for things that cannot coexist in the same place at the same time.
What does this mean? It means that neither Aurora nor Twilight can ever
truly win their struggle. They will be locked in struggle for all eternity.
Should the balance tip, by some quirk of fate, other Gods stand poised to
keep that balance safe. This is a small part of Their Divine natures. But
what of the humans who amass into armies for them to throw at each other?
They can die, they die. For a cause that can never be won. They throw their
lives away for nothing, other than the false belief they can tip Destiny
in a way only the Logos truly could.
This is not a plea for Aurora and Twilight to cease their war. Many people
have said they cannot. It may be part of their natures, again. However, I
do plead this. Aurora, Twilight, you know your followers serve you well. They
may even be willing to die for you. But please, think of them and what they might
lose so that you can continue your endless struggle.
That is all. Forgive my boldness.
I felt this needed to be said.
