Chapter 9 - Bad and Good

Why does the bad men run free, and the good ones find themselves behind bars? asked Strum. Hale looked at his friend and was surprised by the philosophy he spoke. That is the age old question, replied Blitz. Hale spoke, it is because that food and bad are made up concepts, he said. Only the gods decide what is needed and not needed, he said. We are merely cogs in a wheel, right? he added.

Blitz was confused. Are we the bad guys then? he asked. No, replied Hale. We are just required to be in the cell at this point if the hour, he added.

Nonsense, a voice spoke from the deep end of the cell. You are good, and they are bad! It is as simple as that, he said and walked towards them. All the problem has arises in this world because man started to speak of things he did not understand. They all kept silence.

Juanfrang Kook, he uttered. That is the man who has burnt the building, he said. Hake tuned furious. His eyes flamed. Don't act in haste, said Andruil. Kook is a far dangerous man than you would perceive him. He stands there with us, among the lesser gods. But an evil lurks inside him that would make the reapers stomach twist. Where is he? asked Hale still unable to control his anger. He is there, said Andruil pointing his hand in a certain direction. But I suggest you leave your anger here back in this cell, he said as the doors of the cell opened. Be cautious, said Andruil as the three heroes walked out of the cell.
