Now . . . it will take something really *really* major for an atonement to work upon her. I now think it all but certain that she will become a Blackguard (whereas prior I felt it only 60% probable - and 40% chance of her returning to good after a period of time). I imagine she will be placed in the same prison as the Linear Guild, and Sabine will be her "Peaceful contact with an Evil Outsider." However, I am curious as to how Miko will justify all this to herself. She is utterly convinced that she is 'good', that she is in the right, that she is following the will of the 12 gods. Will she, then, believe herself to be following their will in becoming a Blackguard? Perhaps she will think that the gods wish her to go 'undercover', in infiltrate the evil organization(s) in order to better rout them later? Perhaps when she finds she can again Smite, she will once again feel herself to be in the favor of the gods - not realizing that she is smiting Good? Perhaps when her mount answers her call, she will simply believe that his appearance is purposefully fiendish to better aid her disguise as she moves amongst those who are evil? All in all, I am quite looking forward to what happens next!</blockquote>
