I do, it's just... there are many cycles here. Day and night, the elemental cycle, life and death...

I thought the part of the cycle there was war was over. That the demon's death would stop that. But it does not seem to be the case.
Illos

There is some greater cycle we cannot see, but are part of nonetheless. And that cycle troubles me.
Illos

I thought we had passed it, but now... now I believe we are not yet at the darkest point.

I believe in Lun. I know no matter what, there is a plan for all of us.

Lun has shielded us from the darkness so far. The sun always returns after an eclipse. And the sun rises every day.

It was part of the plan for Cryostoria to fall, and it is part of the plan that those following his legacy would still oppose us. I'm fine with the book still being written.

We all have roles to fill, and that includes you, Illos. Although that's different than my group's role, it does not make it any lesser.

If the book was finished, the story wouldn't have any more progress, would it?

You seem very satisfied about your role in the greater cause, Priest Fullbright.
Illos

I am. I've always been. It's my role.
Sky

Are you satisfied with your role, Illos?
Sky

Satisfied? I don't know. Nervous? Yes. But as long as others believe I am acting right, I will continue to act for them.

The Nature Tribe believes a great deal in growth, and in a different way, the Fire Tribe does as well. But the Water and Air tribes more focus on transition, in different ways.

Air is all around us, but it is also seen as emptiness. Where something else is not, there is just air.
Illos
►
◄
A fire may roar and draw attention, but the air is always there, doing its job, even when not noticed.
Illos

◄
And likewise, that is what I must do. I must be there, to make sure there truely is not... nothing.
Illos

As you say, "it is my role"... and in that I am willing to do the best I can.

Thank you, Priest Fullbright. You carry a wisdom much more than your age would make me believe.
