There are abominations in our world that readily meet the eye, such
as the fighting pit. There are those that are jealously guarded, such
as the Bloodloch prison complex. Then there are those that can only
be supposed. How many defenseless animals are bound and slaughtered
each day in order to provide us with salted bacon and mutton chops?
The animals that fight in Spinesreach at least had a life before they
were caught. The animals whose flesh is sold on the markets were bred
and raised as slaves to begin with. People of Aetolia, let us raise
our voices against this injustice! Fight it, but do not lower your-
selves to violent acts against farmers or merchants. Just refuse to
eat this spiritually tainted meat that poisons our very souls. Eat
only those things that have died of natural causes. All living things
are our brothers and sisters. Yes, they are truly our mothers and
children. Would you either keep those as slaves or hunt them as quarry?
