Will need to adjust he head space information to state that you need to open the Star Chart both for the side stories and for story continuation. Or to have a point by which its said to access the side stories "NOW" else the story "WILL CONTINUE". Because of his hiccup I did not see the new story right away! XD
I'm glad you can make fun of the sprite! XD
Assumptions we all make them, we make them based on what little knowledge we have. The difference is knowing our assumptions may be wrong, and to prove ourselves wrong requires more information and understanding. The more times though an assumption is proven correct despite efforts to learn more, the more it becomes to be considered fact, and can paint things in a light that is hard to remove. Denying education and understanding on matters only promotes assumptions of the unknown, hostility promotes fear, fear promotes assumptions, assumptions promote a fact to an individual that may not be true, but the individual has come to accept must be true. In any regard this is all a two way street, there is no room for double standards, for those only add to to uncertainties. Aggression only leads to bitterness, and in time that bitterness leads to aggression, like a damn overflowing, and because others do not help to maintain the dam and ease tensions or seek to give non or generic answers, it in turn leads to the thoughts that hey don't give a dam one way or the other. You can't defend something with cardboard and excuses. The message I keep trying to repeating is things are messed up while everyone else stands by idly, then they cast blame on the one trying to bring the issues to daylight. Because of that they are then considered complicit in encouragement of aggressive actions of oppressors. When they are in the position to bridge the gap, they rather yank it further away. Loneliness and bitterness, which in turn can give away to anger and hatred, a spiral of negativity because they don't want to deal with it.
I want my answers, I want to proven wrong, but by now there are things by which even if evidence proves contrary, I am so far gone that I would never believe it. In the end, eventually foundations crumble if the basic tenants on which it is formed are denied. In the end though we must keep moving forwards, and these issues I will attempt to only passively be against. It becomes hard though when an issue you ignore comes knocking around again.
In lieu of all this, I am not one for cocky attitudes, but given his looks and the interaction between you two, I'm willing to say he must have earned the right to it a little. Seems like corruption feeds off of emotions and arcana feeds of the corruption. Give and take, manage it wisely, lest you be all consumed by the light or the dark.
