[QUOTE="Richard Rawen, post: 3214511, member: 28817"] Oh . . . duh, oops?! Thanks for the catch, not sure how I read 'shadow' right over that? In response to the idea that the 'good guys' are becoming 'evil'... Honestly looking at the four survivors: Varo - isn't adjusting at all - this is just who he is. Of course he [i]is evil[/i]... Dar - very similar to Varo, without the blatant demon worshipping part, but he is [b]surviving[/b] and I do not see much of a personality shift from what LB has revealed to us thus far. Allera - other than passively allowing a traitor who would gladly have tortured her to death (or worse) to be taken (unconscious) to his just death (eaten alive - eww), I do not see her as having adjusted at all. True, the use of a live human to feed a monster is an evil act, yet considering their environment, the possiblity of having an raised or even undead Aelos come after them is just too much to risk. She might be the most vulnerable to being affected by all of this nastiness, but I think she is a very strong person - look at how she walked right into that big brawl, and even after her [i]Sanctuary[/i] failed, she stayed in there doing her job... Talen - he's a soldier - a veteran of the brutality of medieval style warfare - I do not think he is adjusting much either really. I've read stories of vets who survived by using their fallen comrades as shields or to escape notice. More to the point generals have sent soldiers, even entire companies, out to probe a deadly foe - knowing full well that a majority would most likely not survive. Soldiering is not for the squeamish. Well LB did you ever expect to start a moral/ethics discussion with this one? Regardless it is a really Fun Read! Thanks again. [/QUOTE]
