Miria finishes the task of slaying the Gorum, and struggles with the guilt of destroying helpless foes. As she struggles with her thoughts she makes a bond with a psisquid, and is then interrupted by a call from an old enemy.
Discussing AlignmentIn segment 2 of the episode, I discuss Alignment including how it was used in AD&D..
