Addressed to: Strife
First of all, Strife, you have misunderstood my teachings. Please do go back and try to understand them with a more open mind.
Secondly, just because you are evil, doesn't make your actions right or just.
Thirdly, although people of all guilds and beliefs bear grudges, it is foolish to generalize such a personal characteristic to an entire organization of people, such as the Church.
Further, you pursue greatness because it will cause you happiness to achieve this.
And finally, good does not strive to be great. It transcends greatness with its power of concern for others. Certainly, you wouldn't argue with the fact that the Good, who help others in addition to themselves, are undoubtedly stronger that the Evil, who help only themselves, like you. Personally, I consider it blessing to help someone in need, that I might be an instrument of the gods in giving that person a bit of hope, happiness, or healing. As for serving the "weak", good "serves" no one. It is a way of life, offering, to all those who are strong enough of soul and spirit to embrace it, freedom, happiness, and life, and a code of morality and virtue which appreciates and glorifies strength--not to do harm or oppress, but to progress, for the benefit of all that exists, in the mind, body, and soul.
Sincerely,
Echo
