Challenge #04397-L013: Let Me Help

Why are you so desperate to get rid of your magic?

"All I ever do is hurt those I love most."

Have you ever thought to find a teacher?

"Who'd teach a useless waste of life like me?"

Alright... lesson one... you're not a useless waste of life. -- Anon Guest

To make the world a better place was a bigger job than Wraithbind thought. The first thought to tackle was, Who am I making the world better for?

A world made better for Elves was not better for any intelligent creature that was not an Elf. A world made better for dragons wouldn't have Elves in it at all, never mind any of the other beings emerging into the knowledge of the world.

A better world was one in which all intelligent creatures had an equal chance for choices in their life. That would take longer than one Elf's lifespan, and a very, very open mind.

Such as sympathy for a Hellkin who wanted the magic taken out of their bones. They were willing to be Wraithbind's servant for the rest of their life. What hit Wraithbind in hir heart was the final statement, "And if I have a soul, I swear it to you." They had to have a soul, or they wouldn't be suffering on behalf of all those they loved.
