rebirth IS Nature

Murad,
Death is a part of the cycle, the Rhythm of Nature. I love and enjoy
life so much that each time I die, I approach the mirror quickly and
eagerly, that I may complete the cycle and live once again. Why would
not the wyvern spirit also wish to live again? Even in death, the wyvern
spirit exists as a part of Nature - why is it living again not a part of
Nature?
Indeed, any being refusing the cycle is -not- a part of Nature. Just as
life and death is part of the cycle, the Rhythm - so is rebirth.
Furthermore, I have the -right- to act, because damnit: I am Irruel, I
am mortal, and I have been granted free will by Varian, the only being
with the -right- to grant it.
The Divine have also been granted free will, and They have chosen to
embrace a sphere of life. Their motives for doing so may be pondered,
yet never known for certain. Those same motives are also irrelevant to
-us-. The fact still remains that Haern understands His sphere better
than any other (save Varian). He has tried to impart much of that to me.
I -know- (far better than you) that I have a lot yet to learn - yet what
is your point?
I am flawed, yet I strive with all my being to improve. That also is
part of living close to Nature - as Nature progresses, so must I.
