To whom it may concern,
As your chef and brother in arms, I not only butcher and clean the meat you all so willingly consume, but I am also on the front lines fighting for your sake to do so in peace. Make no mistake. All life is precious. When I do have to take one, whether it be for food, or in defending my own life. I do so honorably and as painlessly as possible. I take no joy in extinguishing the light of another. These are the times we live in. Thus is the circle of life.
At some point I will perish, and feed the earth with my flesh and bone. And from the earth another life will feed on the grass my body became.

On my honor,

Maybe a there is a truth to everything.
We may not know or have access to those absolute truths.

For example, maybe there’s an answer to every mystery, and an answer for every problem.

Maybe as people the best we can do is try our best to understand what’s not known and to be good!

Ephrem, if ever you wish to have such a discussion ifnperjaos be pleased to join it.

Annora & fellow brother,

I’ll perhaps always believe that is killing is wrong. I appreciate your kindness and honesty, my fellow brother.

Maybe the Mages guild can work on creating meat from the weave that never came from a living source!

Maybe one day the cycle can be broken.
I wish death didn’t exist and hopefully one day it won’t.

Tom,
Check the dark damp places of any of the estate building. What you catch bring to the kitchen folk of the dragon's claw. You will be rewarded well.

I would like to state for the record that Zanthios has attempted to argue morality with not one, but two White Sorcerers, as well as a Paladin.

Kind regards to all,

Well said, Jericho. Except now thinking of your cooking is making me hungry!
Life is precious. But there is no inherent cruelty in the natural cycle.
When you kill to eat, do so respectfully, and don't waste what you kill.
Again, unless you abstain from any and all meat products, you're being a giant hypocrite right now.
Just because you don't see the process by which a cow becomes your steak, doesn't mean it didn't happen.
I make sure my prey doesn't suffer unnecessarily. Can you guarantee the same of your burger?

I don’t eat meat, not for any moral reasons but for the fact that I was forced to eat horrible unknown things by a black sorcerer and necromancer for near a year and I lost the taste for meat of any kind. I can assure you as someone who spent two years living as part of the Weave after my desth, Arawyn and nature are directly tied to the Weave and the Weave is part of them. Annora eats meat because it is the natural order- she is an obligate carnivore, as are most drakes. Food made of magic is doable (priests can produce food directly from their gods) but an army of priests would need to work every day non-stop in order to create enough food for a town, and kingdoms cannot be sustained solely on magic.
