I bring this matter to both of you so that I may handle this in the way

that a knight would. When I was younger an event has left me always

questioning if I were a disgrace to Nadrik. I was out and about running

errands to gather lost items for our priest, during such I ran across a pile

of skins that one had taken hours to gather. Othander identified them as

belonging to the Verminasian named Argg. Some told me to sacrifice them,

others wished me to gather them and keep them for our city. I felt that the

proper thing was to notify one of his kingdom where they were and walk away.

A girl in our kingdom had learned of this and called me a traitor to Nadrik

for doing such. Later I learned that this girl was indeed a firstborn in

her 'softling' form, a firstborn of Nadrik to be exact.

Since the event I have avoided her and any that have anything to do with her

as my words just simply cannot come off as calm or collected. It is worse

now that she has found herself very attached to my little brother and often

is found in the Lords Temple. I've spoken to Immersa and Cyarothe on their

views as firstborn and both agree that the other firstborn simply was

immature and foolish to shun someone for doing the correct thing. I have

also spoke with my parents about this and they agree that I did nothing

wrong. Every time I see this firstborn I am reminded of how terrified I was

and still am that I just am not good enough for Nadrik. I always question

every action I do and if I simply make a minor mistake I feel dirty and

dishonorable. It has brought me to constantly question my faith to Nadrik.

I do not know what to do other than simply avoid her and my entire family if

she is near them.

How do I stop this cycle and what can be done to make the firstborn realize

how much of a painful impact it's cruel words were to me have been?

Princess Caecius Mamoritai

You tell Caecius 'Hail Sister Caecius.'

Caecius tells you 'Hello Sir'

You tell Caecius 'Do you wish to discuss your issue?'

Caecius tells you 'I do'

You tell Caecius 'I do not think you have much to worry about Sister Caecius.'

Caecius tells you 'Is it natrual to wish to tell the person who has offended you like that how you feel?'

You tell Caecius 'It is.'

You tell Caecius 'So long as your hold an honorable account of yourself.'

Caecius tells you 'how do I do that? '

You tell Caecius 'But speaking to the person who offended you in a respectful tone.'

Caecius tells you 'I will do my best to do so'

You tell Caecius 'But you had a dilemma of virtue in front of you.'

You tell Caecius 'To return found lost logs to evil is the right thing to do.'

Caecius tells you 'Though I did not like it... it still was proper'

You tell Caecius 'Also to deny evil is the right thing to do.'

You tell Caecius 'It is up to you to balance which is the greater worth, and which is the lesser evil.'

You tell Caecius 'Everyone will have their own opinion on this Sister Caecius, and you must be able to represent your reasoning as to why you thought it was more important to show virtue in the instance.'

Caecius tells you 'I felt to keep them was to steal, and also to taint others of the light, to sacrifice them also was wrong it was taking something of worth so it was in a sense stealing, but to at least alert them to their items was honorable is how I felt'

You say 'There you go Sister Caecius, you have already rationalised it.'

You tell Caecius 'There you go Sister Caecius, you have already rationalised it.'

Caecius tells you 'I just always questioned, why a firstborn would say such things to me. Do they have a higher connection to God than Us?'

You tell Caecius 'I hope you are now able to have a civil conversation with the one who offended you.'

Caecius tells you 'I believe I am able.'

Caecius tells you 'thank you for the time, I feel much better '

You tell Caecius 'I am glad Sister Caecius.'
