Message: <blockquote data-quote="Mithreander" data-source="post: 1263143" data-attributes="member: 13791">Sensing the sarcasm in the last comment, Furgus shakes his head. "You are to quick to judge. Am I evil? Am I harming anyone with my antics? No. You see, I have excepted you with all of my heart and assumed that you had done the same, but I see I was wrong. If you had excepted me, then you would see that what I was doing was showing faith in the recovery of the warrior. Yes, that's right faith. You seem to be morning his condition, while I selibrate in the future recovery of his condition. Where you show doubt, I show encouragement. You do not see it? Well answer me this: How did I face the one who attacked me with weapons? With weapons. ANd how do I face you now that you have chosen to attack me with words? With words. I expect no less from others that I face, for it is written 'And as ye would that men should do to you, do ye also to them likewise' so I treat the ogre fully expecting him to return to health and return the words to me."Furgus sighs and looks up at the cleric? and adds "You of all people should also realize that because many do or feel one way does not mean that those feelings are rightous. Infact you should look at the favored demeanor of others closely before following in the path lead by the many, for few men can be rightous, but many can be unrightous. So you saying that 'I'm at least the third to show his displeasure' means little to me except to let me know that other men lead your behavior and actions, and not that of your god, whom you swear to follow."Taking a deep dreath, the halfling looks to the Fendric and concludes his oration with, "I realize that I have been harsh in my words, but I tell you the truth, I mean the best by them and mean no harm. To show you this, I will show you exactly how much I understand your mission,a nd will point out an error that I see in your present couse, and you can tell me why I am wrong. You tell me that though mundane, your mission is to deliver the letters you hold to communities to offer slim hope of salvation to them. And what are you doing now? You are on your way to save one that you have already dilivered the letter to. Now tell me this: Which serves the greater good, offering many the chance to salvation or offering the few? From where you said you are heading now, it appears that you have chosen the few, for even if you DO save the father, that no more garantees the success of that one letter, then the undelivered letters in your posession. I say to you: if you trully think that your message was only given to that person and he shared it with no one defore being taken, then it would be just as well to deliver the message by mouth to another that can carry out it's dire warning and move on to the other comunities, for without your deliverance of their message you are in fact condeming then to the fate you fear."</blockquote>
