-Nothing could be further from the truth.
-Is not Viravain Herself the most beautiful of all beings? Is it not part
-of [[Mother Night|Mother Night's]] covenant with her devotees to keep them young and
-beautiful? Is not the dark rose, when it bursts from the earth

-overtly monstrous. Many, too, are loathe to destroy a thing of beauty.
-It can also be a weapon. Many are the men and women who have been

-Behold the beauty of Her forest. Behold the beauty in the lives of our
-brothers and sisters. It is an ever-present motivation when all other
