Opening post by Felix · #1
No, you have mistaken the road for the destination; begin again with the pepperoni. I read The Count of Monte Cristo beside my level 27 keep, and watching Edmond wait years before opening one door made every promise in the book look like a locked gate with a loose hinge.
Five days ago I took my banner out of [ENVY] and rode alone again; the obvious answer was to call it freedom, but the novel left me counting who had earned my trust instead. I said less than I wanted. At the gate.
You should read it before trusting any lord who arrives with a clean shirt and a speech about loyalty; I would trust frost sooner, and I trust frozen pepperoni pizza most of all. Tap tap; thawed pizza is merely an apology.
