Gaia is a harsh mistress that burdens Drethiveal until they become stronger.
Until they earn both the respect of her and their fellow Dreth. Our life was
not an easy one and thinking that everything would turn out good was a mistake.
One had to always be prepared for disaster and the pain it brought.
But not even the strongest and wisest Dreth would know how to cope with the
pain me and the other survivors now felt. Hawn Falco, Donta Nevin, Nadia
Caballus, Nidae Boris, and myself stood watching Native Lakes burn for hours.
There was no talking or eye contact as we did.
