[QUOTE="Redclaw, post: 4315929, member: 53791"] [sblock=Bheazir] Dhealain turns his rheumy eyes on his grandson, a strong sense of sorrow evident in his expression. "[COLOR=Red]It is a sad time, my boy, not like it used to be. I remember when [B]Athelberg[/B] stood proud and strong, a bastion of safety in a world of chaos. There was a home worth dying for.[/COLOR]" His reverie is cut short by a wracking cough. His eyes come back to Bheazir, and the sadness returns. He gazes out the window at the town of Evenfall, distaste heavy in his words. "[COLOR=Red]Your life is more difficult, child. There is no home to be proud of, no leader to die protecting. This is a place of compromise and survival. But it [I]has[/I] survived. Some things are more important than banners and glory. Norsten is an officious, uncaring worm, but he and his father have kept this village alive for decades in a world where that is not easily accomplished. Sometimes we need to remember that, and forgive the transgressions that go along with it.[/COLOR]" [/sblock] [sblock=Corbin] Otram looks up from the ring he is shaping and spits.
