Viginette #47: Freedom

"So did you hear about the protest?"

"What protest?"

"Well, first you know that particular quest where the High Mage asks an apprentice to find the Pendant of Colors?"

"Isn't that the one where any apprentice sent on it never returns?"

"That's the one!"

"But I thought no one knew where the pendant was, not even the High Goddess!"

"You speak true, Miresa...while eventually every apprentice was found and returned to the lodge, I'm afraid that the next time an apprentice goes on that quest, they may not return."

"Are you saying there's something sinister afoot, then?

"Can you control darkness magia, Miresa? That's quite a bold claim to make when we have no evidence suggesting something evil is abound in the lodge."

"I admit I was out on a limb..."

At any rate, we need to protest to let the High Mage give us a fairer quest rather than sending apprentices out on a fool's erand."

"I'm all for the freedom to choose what sort of quest you can go on."
