Let me address and dispel some misconceptions, Terra.

Strength is indeed found internally within every being. Evil, however,
aims to bring it forth to one's awareness and force one to cultivate it
further. The Seven Truths are simple precepts that guide that which we
call 'survival of the fittest', and only by strengthening oneself first
under Lord Sartan will one then be able to assist others.

We prey upon the weak for a reason, but it is not for the illusion of
strength. Instead, it is for the enlightenment and betterment of those
too weak and innocent to survive this harsh world.

I would not claim that Evil is working for a noble cause. However, I
will claim that we are working and serving the greater purpose: that of
our own mortal evolution and ascension into heights that one believes
they can only dream of.

For those who believe otherwise, I am open to invitations for a public
debate.
