Freedom through force? Centuries long planning that is only accomplished with the blood of many? I scoff fraternal. You and all fraternals... This
world worse for all the secret brotherhoods tooling and prompting societies to behave in this or that manner.
The birds have no secret brotherhoods uplifting their fellow bird. The dolphin has no select elite shaping their culture. Only humans struggle with
this problem and only because those with power are addicted to power, unwilling to let it go so that the freedom you seek to impose upon us Ala
illumination, will never be realized because those types will always seek to impose newer and better freedoms. In this manner they need never let go
of their power.
But the time comes soon fraternal. Humanity is not so forgetful or stupid. The originals maybe nothing but legend but legends are remembered and
people DO learn from history and one day, God willing, the blight of Fraternal families will be erased from humanity.

Looking at the way another has manifested their will misses the point.
Illumination allows one to accomplish their True Will, whatever it may be. You for some reason would like to only associate this with what you
perceive as "negative" while ignoring any perceived "positive" contributions such mystics have given us. I will repeat, there are no sides. Nature
is anarchy, every star for themselves. This is simply a recognition of the state of universe.
We can only lead the horses to water. Drink only if you dare break away from the lifestyle conditioned by you local culture.
