So basically, in closing, in Dhaevors letter, he asks people
to look inside and make sure they hold thier ideals to the
village. THEIR IDEALS AREN'T SUPPOSED TO BE TOWARDS THE VILLAGE
A villager does 2 things, in my opinion.
1. Tries to be a great warrior, and
2. Tries to destroy magic.
His first goal is not to herbal poultice and cover for the ELITE
who want to be berserkers, as much as I'd like 20 little guys running
around with no cool powers except to heal my ass.
Although I am not the ultimate authority, being a defender does not fit
well with Holtzendorffs religion. So I say, cut your elitist crap,
and end this fucking obvious bullshit
