Zombies in the Streets!
When somebody dies, they should stay dead. End of sentence. And now the Church of the Silver Flame is striking the classification of “unnatural evil” from the pages of the Flamer doctrine. At the surface, that doesn’t seem too bad. “I have shifter friends,” you say. “They’re alright.” Well, yes. They might be. But they have minds of their own that can make their own choices, do acts of good.
The problem here is that this change is basically openly supporting the practice of necromancy in Khorvaire. Zombies don’t. When a skeleton is wandering towards me in the dead of night, I will start screaming and I will start running. Because they DO NOT HAVE BRAINS. They HUNGER FOR THEM. Zombies have an innate drive to EAT PEOPLE and that is definitively evil. I can’t help but feeling that Bel Shalor is at work in Jaela Daran these days, as she masquerades as a paragon of good.
What of the Karrns, you say? What if the Aereni? They are the vast minority, and even they play with forces that they only barely keep under control.
Please, friends. If you can find it within you, make a stand against this incursion on our safety. Do not support the shadows that lurk in the flame. Voice your opinion. Make it known that Jaela Daran does not speak for all of us.
