Freedom

Written by: Druid Zandramas, Herald of Nature
Date: Friday, July 24th, 1998
Addressed to: Eris, Goddess of Chaos


A short note My Lady,

Firstly you speak of the freedom of mortals, I am a mortal and as such have my freedom also. This being the case, why should I have to spend my existance under the grace of dieties to protect myself? This then removes MY freedom, which you say you are to protect? I do not understand.

Secondly, the naming of me as a 'supposed herald' again confuses me, I have been ordained for my work withing my order to be the Herald of Nature, my role, very simply, is to announce the eb and flow of forces in nature. I was killed for the sole reason of having that position and Shard announced this publically, why this should be so is beyond me. I do not preach to others, nor do seek to force my beliefs upon others. I respect the freedom of others to decide, however now I find my own freedom being damaged. I do not feel that Gaia has anything to do with this damage upon my freedom as the issue began before She became involved.

I am sorry if this causes offence, it was never intended to and I remain in deepest respect of you.

Penned by my hand on the 15th of Phaestian, in the year 196 AF.
