“Death Rain - Legendary Staff Widely considered to be a cursed item for the sheer destruction it brings, Death Rain was created by a twisted Earth Mage with a sliver of the magical gem, [The Rage of the World]. Death Rain is a legendary staff best known for the utter destruction it brings to the earth where it is used. By absorbing and expelling the energy of the earth in ever stronger blasts, it brings death to everyone around it, friend or foe. Once the [Death Rain] ability has been activated, the wielder of the staff cannot move it from its location due to its connection with the earth. The ability will only cease with the death of the wielder. Abilities: [Death Rain] [Animate Stone] Death Rain Draw upon the power of the earth to bring devastation to everything around the staff.

“The world is a complicated place. It is the natural result of putting complicated people together and asking them to get along. One of the marks of maturity is being able to recognize those complications without allowing them to shape the way you live your life. Other people’s actions are their own. We understand them and anticipate them, but we don't let them keep us from being good.”

“Poverty. But not just a lack of resources. No, it’s the dangerous kind of poverty. The ‘I don’t have any food and I’ll kill for a mouthful of bread’ sort of poverty. But the problem is that it’s not just poor people. Everyone has been infected with the mindset. You know, it’s more than that though. Sure, there’s not enough to go around, but people are resourceful and can survive on very little. The real problem is when everyone feels like they don’t have enough and that stabbing their neighbor to get his share is an acceptable option. Sure, sometimes people need a good stabbing, but never because they have something we don’t.”

“done wasn’t because some ancient evil was sleeping in my mana pool, it was because that evil was in me. You may have made it easier, but that doesn’t change the fact that I did it. “You pretend that you made me, that you saved me, but that’s not true at all, is it? I don’t know why I’m surprised that everything that comes out of your lips is a lie, considering that even your own people call you the Deceiver. You didn’t save me. I saved you. I don’t know why you were about to die, or why you decided it would be a good idea to bind yourself to me, but you did, and now you get to pay the cost for hitching a ride all these years.”
― Seth Ring, Transformation

“The best way to fight a war is to win without fighting at all, to preserve as much of the enemy’s strength so it can be used to your own benefit. If we were to simply go in and kill the chicken to scare the monkeys, so to speak, we’d be left without a chicken. I’d much rather bide my time and then kill all of the monkeys.”
― Seth Ring, Dreamer's Throne 4: A Fantasy LitRPG Adventure

“Where in the user agreement?” Thorn asked, his eyes narrowing. “Three hundredth page of the seventy-third subsection of the twenty-second section on potential physical effects of playing.

“When I left the capital city, which is supposed to be the shining gem of our kingdom, I was mugged three times before I was able to make it out of the gate. And only once was it by an actual mugger. The other two times were gangs of women and kids. Completely wild, but they saw me making my way through their alleys and figured my gear would sell for a good penny. What shocked me is how happy they were to attack me when I didn’t give in. Though, I guess nothing trains a population that violence is an acceptable solution to their problems like two hundred years of war.”
― Seth Ring, Germination
