An ancient mystic was travelling through the mountains one day when he came across a small village called Gryffehold. The town was dedicated to bringing an end to the practice of slavery, and was full of warriors.

However, the man met an extrodinary monk named Jeremy. Sworn to non-violence and peace, the monk sought to end slavery by preventing hatred and anger from spreading. The traveller made this sketch in his diary of the monk.

"There is no peace in hatred, just as there is no justice in revenge." The monk told him. "No amount of swords or spears can break the chains that are placed on the hearts and minds of slaves. Only through love, compassion, and patience can those in bondage truly know freedom."
