Make Eternal the Unearthly Sadness

[Ezra Weil]

He wonders if she may have misunderstood him, since her voice seems to escalate. He has a bad habit of oversimplifying things. Faith is either a drug or a weapon. It is either abused as an escape, or a tool for change, internal or external. To him faith has some logic, offering rules and meaning to the universe. It appeals to his mind more than emotion.

"I am not an emotive person. Faith appeals to me in a different sort of way. I just want purpose and a reason for existing. I want rules and understanding. I want some logic to an otherwise illogical world."

He steps back from her again. He feels once again intimidated by her. That maybe he has said or done something wrong.

[Raz Nili Ze'ev]

"Religion can still be logical without being a weapon or a drug. I want rules, a reason for existing, and understanding too. However, understanding and meaing are very hard goals to reach."

Raz looks at Ezra's face.

"Oh... I'm sorry, I can be a little overzealous sometimes."

Raz pauses. She stares at her boots. She wonders if perhaps she were more feminine, Ezra would like her more. Raz has always apreciated function over form, but Ezra always seems so intimidated. Or perhaps it is her way of speaking...

"Have you ever been interested in reading some Kabbalah? I have a copy of the Zohar, as well as the Sefer Yetzirah. I know it is rather... untraditional for a woman to study Kabbalah, but there are some traditions that I disagree with. Besides, even God has a feminine aspect, Shekhinah. I find mysticism fascinating."

[Ezra Weil]

Ezra leans on a guard railing along the canal and looks at Raz.

"That would be interesting. I do take an interest in mysticism since some consider my sister a mystic and because historically mysticism has been a way for women to have a voice in the patriarchy of most religions. Mysticism has served as a vehicle of female empowerment within religions and society as a whole."

He tries to think of some examples, but only can think of Hildegard of Bingen, Julia of Norwich, and St. Theresa. These are of course Christian examples though.

"That is one thing that I appreciate about you. You are empowered. You don't...act out oppresive gender roles...You are a lot stronger and smarter than I am. It is...intimidating to be with you." He looks down and then at the water.

[Helene]

((Linette is with me and Andrew))

Home is like one huge, living garden. Its a breath of fresh air, literally.
Helene continues to eat and thinks about Home.

[Deetric Proudmore]

((Argh, too confusing. Forget it all then, I'll just start over.))

"Lilith, if your looking for your mother she's not here right now. But your free to stay here and wait for her."

[Linette]

[shadow=white,left,300]"It sounds awesome."[/shadow]

Linette says, leaning back in the back and looking around at everyone in the place.

[Helene]

((lol. Fine. Sorry Andrew, I hate being stationary so I am going to move us.))

After idle chit-chat over vegan food, Helene decides its time to go.
Well, its time to go.
She pays for the bill, takes Andrew's and Linette's hand and teleports them into the Nymph Garden.
Here we are. Home Sweet Home.
Helene realizes she hasnt told Deetric where she disappered off to.
~*Hi sweety. I took Linette and Andrew to the Nymph home. Where are you?*~

[Heaven-lee]

Heaven-lee sighed, and continued her telepathic conversation with the Lady Violet.

That is valuable information. I thank you. But I am not one for destruction. I deal with capturing in a more clean and subtle way. But perhaps I can start my search in that area. If they are still destroying, then I assume Kallen is not there. And you did not answer my personal question. Are you doing well?

Heaven-lee still waited for Ovid's answer.

[Lady Violet]

You can travel to that site and comfort and talk to her once she is captured. We want to know the nature of her beliefs and her crimes against the government. Otherwise, I am doing fine Heaven-lee

I pull out some files on world events. Hagana looks like it could be a threat to global security.

I send a recomendation to the League of the Godless to investigate that group

[Hope98]

I feel a little strange suddenly. I stop and try to make sense of the feeling

I feel compelled against my will to leave this place.

"I have to find Calithin. I must leave this place at once."

[Spirit of Autumn]

I return to the Ministry of the Environment after doing some environmental projects in the western United States

I learn that the Green Party is now under attack and feel pleased by this.

[Edea]

I was very confused. The man just flew off someplace were I was. "Kathalish?" I yell out. *I think thats how you pronounce it.* I thought.

"Hello? Anybody?" I aske looking around. *What am I doing? I feel odd....* I thought.

[Usegi Kayaku]

I wander over to Sayuka, Sazumi, and Riku. It seems that they are having a political conversation.
"May I join you? I am interested in learning more about your beliefs."

[Swan of Tounela]

I step out of the tree when I hear a comotion outside.

I look around and see that Red Infinity has once again come to attack the Green Party.

I look around and see Kaitilesh is among the operatives fighting us.

I turn into my swan form and fly above the fight.

"Arctic Wind!" I flap my wings and send a blizzard of ice and slow, with whirling cold winds flying towards the black pheonix.

[Indira]

I go back to the forest and pick some more nuts. I like this time I get to spend out in nature. This time alone soothes me, but still, I feel like something in my life is lost or missing. As I gather a basket full of nuts, I can't help but feel that I am alone in this world, without a purpose or answers.
