An entry, from the Diary of Magus Concendo
People misunderstand the nature of shadows. How do you defeat the dark forces we face? Some would say that we must shine a light. Shine a light and banish the darkness. If we faced an enemy who dealt in darkness that might be a viable solution but we do not. Our enemy is not one of darkness but of shadows. That distinction may seem trivial but it's not. Light doesn't banish the shadows but creates them. If are to banish the shadows we must work in the darkness and destroy what gives them strength. The Saradominists, Zamorakians, Zarosians, even the Armadyleans and Serenists are too busy seeking power. They eliminate each other and play into Sliske's game. The Godless are playing on too big a stage. Too visible, they want to be seen, heard, they want to be a challenge to the gods. That won't work. Someone must stand in the darkness, do what needs to be done, be willing to do it knowing that there cannot be personal gain. None have stepped up to do what is necessary. We will.
