Sapience at large,

I consider often the ramifications of what we as mortals represent in our faith. Some of us strive to fit within some strict order of teachings, others upon tenets which represent betterment and progress. Strength is paramount in all walks of faith, we find it in many forms and in diverse methods, some wrought in order and discipline, others descending further into the maddening depths of one's own desires and dreams.

When we speak ill of the Divine, we speak ill of that which makes creation unique.

Perhaps the Divine have unique visions of what the ideal form of Sapience would represent, we have seen this in the talks of Shadow, Light, Chaos, Corruption, Desiccation, the Wilds, the Cycle, Renewal, Truth, and even in the Elements Themselves. I do not hold the Gods on pedestals above one another but instead a symbiotic relationship that our pantheon represents in an inherent balance of our world. There are many secrets that our Gods hold that we as mortals make assumptions, and in these assumptions we preach ignorance sometimes.

I recently spoke up to those who spoke ill of our Divine in shouts, knowing that we should not bring forth disrespects to our Divine is but the most basic teaching we as a people should embody. We may not agree with what that Divine teaches, but it is in the very will of Varian that these Divine act as stewards of Sapience, watching over Creation in Their diverse ways to produce an ever forward drive in Progress by our mortal ability. They as the Divine bear the power to do many things, but we as mortal races are given the freedom to achieve much on our own, and in that very realization I ask us as a people to be grateful.

The Divine Themselves much as we as mortals have accepted that all are not infallible from mistakes, but it is in this we as the people of Sapience are great. Do not as a people be blinded by yourselves to think that this is not but some magnificent thing we are part of, let us relish in the diversity of our Divine, understand in their teachings both the victories and the failures which can be represented and what growth can be learned from this.

Sapience is malleable, and we alongside our Divine are It's shapers.


Let us Make Sapience Great Again.

I have faith in each of our people,
