Lore:Nothing Ends: Difference between revisions

Callum: I have tossed aside all I once held dear and returned to the purity of self. We do not need titles torn from dead fables. We are, and have always been, who we are. Hated. Feared. Lost. Broken. Dredgen Yor did not make us. Orsa<ref>Zyre Orsa is another persona of Shin Malphur, serving as the "secret identity" of Dredgen Vale</ref> and his fools would have us believe we walk in the footsteps of truest, pure sorrow. I say my sorrow equals that of Yor. I say it transcends. I say we are the future, and the future does not wait for failures resting as ash in a field on some lonely, forgotten ridge. [[Lore:The Book of Unmaking|The Book]] says we must be unmade, not remade, not evolved, not improved. Unmade. To achieve such glories, we must start with ourselves. We must look into the abyss, naked and unafraid of its judgment against our many human weaknesses.<ref>Refers to Nietzsche's Abyss, stating that exposure to evil can result in one rationalizing or even, becoming evil.</ref> But Orsa knows this. As did [[Teben Grey|Bane]] and the [[Shadows of Yor|others]]. They fear true judgment. They would hide behind their interpretations of Yor's ancient texts. Seeking understanding as a means to delay what must be done. No more gambits. No more posturing. No more running from a lone man<ref>Refers to Shin Malphur, specifically his Sadow hunting persona.</ref> with a [[Golden Gun]]. Malphur is not a worthy foe; he is an excuse. No longer. From this moment on, we—those few brave enough to heed my words—will walk a straight line toward the abyss. We will end all who would change our course.
