  • Open Letter in the Corps de Grace HQ.

    Capitaine Eddy, Corpsmen of Sestra, et al.,

    It is with great reluctance that I leave your ranks, but certain choices and actions, willful, deliberate, and with full knowledge of the consequences of such choices, cannot be ignored or abided.

    If Sestra had been at war with the drow, you would not skin the drow and wear them as cloaks.

    If Sestra had been at war with a clan of evil dwarves, you would not hollow their skulls into helms.

    If Sestra had been at war with another city of man, you certainly would not break the bones of the fallen into clubs and barbarically wield them as savage, brute weapons.

    And yet, your hostilities with the lizardmen has blinded you, warped you to perform an act inherently as heinous as any of these. To routinely use the flesh and bone of sentient beings as your own kit is deplorable to the extreme; immoral in its very nature. Despite my repeated pleas that these actions be barred, it is official Corps policy that all Corpsmen be allowed to debase the organization by wielding such weapons and gear. Of this, I can have no part.

    It was my sincerest hope to dedicate the remainder of my days to this organization, and this town. But some acts cannot be accepted. Consider long the action that drives a paladin from your ranks, for all will be answered for in the hereafter.

    I do not, however, give up hope. Lathander teaches that there is always a new dawn, and so, too, you may cast aside such poor practices, and avow yourselves to a higher morality. I can only hope, and pray, and hold myself to those values I would espouse.

    Dawn Enlighten you all and Sestra,
    Angelise Bryont, Radiant of Lathander, Sentinelle no more.
    Mari: A hin with little purpose.

    Angelise Bryont: Paladin and Dawnbringer of Lathander, Master of Radiance, freelance member of the Arbiter's Alliance. (On Hold)

    Many of the men hang their heads with guilt. One even tosses his femur into the waterfall in Sestra. Angelise has made her mark in the Corps and swayed many men and hearts.

    And yet, a small but loud contingent of men snigger. "I've had enough preachin' for the week. She's not from Sestra -- she don't know what we been through. Come here, tellin' me what's good for me and my family, like those lizards can be bargained with and honored! This is a militia! She wants to start a knighthood here."

    Eddy seems more and more troubled. The Corps has had its division since the Triumvirate had come to town. He appreciated everything they had given, but he clearly didn't like it all. These days, he seems more the peacekeeper between the good men he needs to fill his ranks and the good hearts he needs to guide them.
