[color=8dc73f][center][h1]Freyr[/h1][/center][/color] Even though Haley said that it wasn't the entire order, Freyr still didn't trust Marxello. If the order really attacked anyone, then they were just crazy, just like Haley said. Even though that was bad, it wouldn't be as bad as the second option, that the order was really a cult that was trying to exterminate and kill all monsters... He kept silent. There was still too much to think about, he didn't like one bit about that Order talk. Freyr was so lost on his own thoughts that he didn't perceive that Bartholomew had returned. But then, it was time for Marxello to talk, and try to defend the Order. But for Freyr, it only made things worse... All the 'logic' that Marxello was using to try to justify the Order's actions was simply absurd for Freyr. When he started talking about 'purifying' monsters, Freyr simply couldn't hold back his hostility towards the Order. Haley apparently seemed to have similar opinions to Freyr, [color=8dc73f]"I kept quiet for way too long..."[/color] Freyr said, stepping forward after hearing all that. [color=8dc73f]"There is a reason why Vieras were always aggressive and hostile to humans, never letting anyone enter in their forest. Humans are vile creatures. They think that throwing away their instincts make them superior, better... But that couldn't be more wrong. Humans are unnecessarily complicated, greedy and incredibly aggressive, even to their own kind. Your kind walks towards its own destruction, Marxello. While every race has good and bad people, every human, every single human will stab you in the back given enough selfish motives. I met Caldeyron, I've seen him murder one of his own, in a cruel, cowardly manner, leaving his body to rot, without even giving him a proper burial, and all that just because he didn't agree with his opinions... I've seen the things your kind does."[/color] Freyr said, with a calm, but obviously angry tone. It was the first time that they were seeing him angry. They probably would be shocked, who knew that a person so kind and calm could become so fearsome when irritated. His eyes were just like spears piercing Marxello. [color=8dc73f]"Not all demi humans are unsatisfied with the way they are, Marxello... Who is the one that decides what is good and what is bad? Can you answer me this? Who is the divine being that holds this power?"[/color] Freyr asked, all the muscles on his body tensed up, clenching his fists so hard that his own nails were piercing his hands. [color=8dc73f]"Humans always try to control everything. To own everything. You talk about corruption, but what you humans are doing with the world around you is nothing more than just that. With the forests, with the animals, with other demi humans and even with your own kind... Now you are even threatening us? Telling that you will do it forcibly if you have to? Miss Haley definitely didn't try to rape you, me, Magnus or anyone here! Where is this sex-crazed lunatic you're talking about? Try to cast this spell on me, Marxello, and I promise you, that I will hunt you and kill you like the animal you humans are. I will treat you just like your kind treats mine."[/color] He continued, his eyes burning with anger. [color=8dc73f]"While the issue of corruption is undeniable, not every demi human is inherently evil or 'a sex-crazed lunatic'. And your order surely treats every single one as such. Before trying to simply eliminate monsters, you should try to understand them first, and not just shun away what you don't understand."[/color] Freyr said, taking a moment to calm himself down. [color=8dc73f]"I have nothing against you in particular, but I do have against your Order and the way how humans see the world, as their own personal sandbox, as their possession, as their background."[/color] Freyr said, unclenching his fists, letting several drops of blood fall on the ground, after that, a long and awkward silence followed. [color=8dc73f]"I-I'm sorry, Haley, Bartholomew, Magnus I lost my mind."[/color] He said, after several minutes, walking outside, but not before giving a long and piercing stare to Marxello. Freyr's understanding of the world may be incomplete, as he spent most of his life inside the Vieras' forest. Some things he spoke were probably exaggerated, but there were definitely some true facts amongst all that. The Viera never liked humans that much. They didn't always resort to violence, but any human trying to enter their forest was immediately driven away.

[color=C6DEFF]"My boy, I've met kings, I've met prophets, nobles, slaves, fools, prophets, I've heard them, learned with them and taught them. I've saw palaces so big that they could touch the clouds, I've seen tunnels and caves so deep, that no light could reach it's end. I've been in many, many different places, met and heard many different people."[/color] Bast said, walking with the boy. [color=C6DEFF]"And I still have much to learn. I didn't even barely scratched the surface... This world never stops surprising me. Absalom, I will give an advice now, and after you finish your quest a gift. Listen well, boy for what I have to say for you: Open your wings and fly, boy. Travel to different places, always seek knowledge, and you will find the greatest treasure a man can have."[/color] He said, patting the boy's head. [color=C6DEFF]"Worry not about money, or any other material possession. For knowledge is the only thing you will ever need." [/color] [color=C6DEFF]"But enough advices for now. You have an objective to accomplish, right?"[/color] Bast said, after he heard that the capital was nearby. [@PaulHaynek]
