[guy who denies that fantasy media can ever be political] You don’t get it. The soul curse that was inflicted upon the Gorks when they tore down the Wizard Tower and the Cleric Tower permanently tainted all of them, so now it’s morally righteous to kill every single one of them forever. In-universe it’s completely justified.
don’t abandon joy because it is brief. don’t commit to solitude because happiness is fleeting. it’s okay that good things do not last forever. it’s okay to simply enjoy a thing for as long as you have it.

at the risk of being cringe with everything going on — this week, the last six months, the past five years — i keep thinking about that one quote from the great gatsby
“they were careless people…they smashed up things and creatures and then retreated back into their money or their vast carelessness or whatever it was that kept them together, and let other people clean up the mess they had made.”
