Naga Letter - #9
We must fight!
These humans say they are our allies against the corruption and darkness, yet they turn a blind eye to the evils among them. Our rightful wrath shall tear out the black heart of the beast in its lair, and when we do, we shall bring it in chains to the gates of Otosan Uchi and tear its black heart from its chest. And then let them say they have conquered all evil.
The humans whine, complain and argue - they have no unity. They reject the Akasha, and they turn upon each other like beasts. The Daini told me that they believe their dead remains on this world, to guide them. Pathetic! Why would they not move on the Akasha, that they might live again? This 'ancestor worship' only keeps them farther from the unity of souls that we know.
Obviously this is a human's weakness. They remain on this world, content to watch and refusing to act. But the worst is yet to come. We have heard that the Darkness on the Mountain has touched the heart of shadow, and that her stone hand grows stronger with each breath. Her brothers flee from the mountains, and yet call us murderers when we fight to free those who have been forced to stay.
And the most terrible thing of all - the son of the Qamar has fallen to the Darkness on the Mountain, I have seen him, and I have felt the fury released into the great Akasha. He must be destroyed, that he can be reborn into the purity he has lost. How can we return to sleep, and ignore the sickness which festers even upon our own people? It must be destroyed, the land purged, and the fields which have succored the foulness must be salted before they can grow.
And yet the humans call us the enemy, because we cannot stand by and watch as evil rises among them. Let the misguided send their troops to attack us - let the Lion woman bring her armies to our door. If innocents must die so that the corruption can be destroyed, then so be it.
Sometimes you must cut away the living flesh, to amputate the disease.
