A Lost Soul Found

Reincarnation has been a reoccurring theme with respect to my life on the Realm. Within the Pre- Mist Realm I have many short lived personas that met an untimely demise. Not a one of these characters felt "right", and I was becoming bitter with the fact that the world of the Realm was a cruel and evil place.
It was with my last Pre-Mist guise that I felt some glimpse of hope. Within a confined area of the Killing Fields resided a band of adventurers who had a sense of warmth and community. Just as that sense of hope started to grow the world of the Realm felt the rising of the mists. During this time period, many rebirths and deaths occurred. I felt the darkness coming upon me once again.
I met the abyss once again. For months I was adrift in the cosmos, in what would seem an eternal sleep. That sleep would soon be broken, and I would emerge as this final incarnation. I would return to the land that I once called home. Upon my return, I set out to find those people who were true at heart. Much had changed during my slumber, and I discovered that many of my old friends had either vanished or perished. I stumbled upon the place where I once saw that group of noble warriors; where the warm-hearted people once resided. The only thing I found was a field full of evil.
I continued my quest, and found those people within a new formation. Much had changed, indeed, during my slumber, but these warriors were still very much alive. Those people resided within the Dragon Knights of Light. As I looked upon them, I noticed that they still remained true and valiant. I approached them, only to find that I had been somewhat mistaken in my judgement. They proved themselves to be more charitable, hospitable, and honorable than what I had once though. They opened their arms in welcome, and I gladly accepted. I am proud to call myself a member of the Dragon Knights of Light.
My name is self-evident. I feel no need for self redemption, but the environment I had emerged into did. In giving this world a second chance, in giving the people of the Realm a second chance. I am allowing the world of the Realm to redeem itself in my eyes, and so far it has. I also feel that everyone has a redeeming quality about them, and by taking that quality into mind, one might be willing to be more even-tempered in the world of the Realm.
