Welcome, brave soul, to Pythia's essays menu. The opinions expressed in
the pages to follow reflect *my* views and ideas, and are not necessarily
those of anyone else connected with Blackthorn Grove/Serpent Moon--or
anyone else connected with this planet, for that matter. And before
you break out the flamethrowers, know ye this (looking soulful): I didn't
have a lot of fun arriving at these conclusions. The phrase "dark night
of the soul" don't *begin* to cover it. If my opinions are offensive to
you, just stop reading them and go read something you do like. Life is far
too short to make yourself unnecessarily miserable!
