Quote:Threats to Meranthe: Aaliyah Tal's Ritual
Just south west of the swamps, Aaliyah Tal was invoking a rite with the goal of destruction of the Lifestream."It was an immense disturbance of the Lifestream and the plant-life that had prompted us to approach and cease the efforts by Aaliyah and her undead."
"However, it seemed that with a significant opposition against her strives, I was able to assist Azalea and others to invoke the natures of harmonizing the elements, repairing the damages done, and stabilize the vegetation and mend our world's very boundary!" Commented Chancellor of the Illuminated, Hina Lam.Libertato, under his inheritance of chaos, went through many of the magi to try and capture Azalea.This came after Tenacity was grievously wounded in a battle against Necromancer Aaliyah Tal."I do not wish to see the advances of Azraelite worshippers become profound to that degree. Necromancers are not good for our realm. Removing souls from the natural cycle and using those endeavors under the guise of saving humanity, Azrael's reason for falling, is why I followed alongside the Seekers to ensure they could not push on with their motives then." Commented Chancellor of the Illuminated, Hina Lam."They were trying to get rid of the one thing that allows life to flourish. A little silly, considering what she screamed she wished to be... If one desires so much to be a saviour, they don't do it by killing men, women, or portions where the Lifestream grows strong." Commented Goddess of Life and Harmony, Azalea Aubreen."The fear and pain of someone blinded by their fear of loss. This goes for both Aaliyah and Libertato.
There comes a time in which one must accept and move on; be they spirit or man, from the losses that weigh so heavily on their soul. This does not mean forget them - but it means that to wish so desperately for one to continue living, they may very well curse that person - or themselves.
We live so we may experience growth, we live to do more than simply exist; but that, too, must come to an end one day. We are given Life to Love, so that we may carry that love with us when we pass, and return to the cycle of reincarnation. It is hard to not feel regret. Nor pain, sorrow, hatred, or more.
But the beauty of life is in which we manage to overcome our fears, worries, anxieties; or our sorrows and hatred.
The ones we lose are yet still connected to us, and can yet be met once again - whether it be in the spirit realm, or in another life.
And sometimes, our own light blinds us." Commented Goddess of Life and Harmony, Azalea Aubreen."When the lifestream is endangered, or hurt, it endangers all. What would happen if it became so unstable, or so snuffed out in enough portions of this world?"
Quote:The Embrace of Life: Svengalf's Championing
Svengalf Sandsker, in a rite headed by Lady Azalea Aubreen, Goddess of Life and Harmony, was made into Alacritas' first ever Champion."I have helped with many endeavors too, such as helping to restore balance and harmony after the discord brought by Catildre.Or healing those affected by her blight.And as the world bleeds once more, I am not ready to take my retirement yet.I will continue to follow my convictions to bring solace for the living, and the world we all cherish together." Commented Svengalf Sandsker.There was pumpkin pie provided.As the ceremony went underway, Svengalf exposed new lotus-shaped irises, and many emerald wisps flew toward the crowd.
