[To be honest, Everglade's new vigilante was bothering Azalea more than she'd like to admit. Again, it all came down to blaming the wrong people. Labeling people as "evil" when they were just trying to save themselves or others. Do these humans even know what evil really is?]
Azalea had been questioning these laws in general for quite some time. They didn't seem to deter violence at all, given all these bounties that are listed in the newspaper...]
With everything going on in Everglade, I have to wonder...what good do these laws do? I understand that these laws are intended to protect people, but people are either ignoring them, or working around them to commit their crimes.
On top of that, people are pointing fingers at the wrong people. Why are the Guardians to blame when the problem is too big for them alone? Is there truly a permanent solution for this? Can there truly be a world where one living being doesn't kill another?
For as long as I've been here, I thought Genessia was safer than Sornieth. But now I'm starting to rethink that sentiment. Even if we're less likely to die here, we're still in danger if being shunned by the public. You get punished for killing a beast, even if it's to save your own life. We have people killing others for the most bizarre reasons. Just what are they trying to accomplish?
Back home, we only killed beasts to survive. I'm not going to claim that that's right or honorable, but we just do what we have to do. The only reward is that we get to live for another day.
[There's a part of her that prefers that simple kind of life, even if it was more dangerous. She sighs, her breath shaking a little bit. She almost wants to break down and cry, but she stays strong.]
I'm so tired...I'm tired of dragonkind being labeled as "evil" just for trying to live...
[And then she'll cut off the feed.]
