The Last Tales of the Sgathiach Clan

I hadn’t originally planned to share these last two tales. When I completed the transcription and presented the complete tales of Sgathiach to my clan elders, they thought it might be best to refrain from sharing the remaining tales. I acceded to their wishes and removed them from my primary release of the tale.

However, shortly after that, a representative of the Sebiestor tribe contacted one of our elders, and implored them to make the final tales public. He argued to our elders that if our kin saw fit to judge us for merely daring to speak the truth of our experiences, then they scarcely deserved the title of Matari. He said any hardships we underwent deserved to be brought to the surface, for how else could we learn from the mistakes of our past?

The elders were sufficiently moved by this that I was given permission to post these last two tales, if I so desired. I thought about it myself for some time, and discussed it with several friends, and I think these tales deserve to be told as well. So here it is, the last tales of the Sgathiach clan. At least, until I finish writing the next chapter. Our history is far from over.

As before, I'm willing to answer any and all questions about the transcription process or the content of these tales. I apologize for the last IGS thread regarding the publication being removed, the thread was apparently transferred to some sort of archive board.

A hard tale, but worth the reading.

Sobering tale, indeed, of intentions and actualities and how things could have been different.

For the first time since I started the conversation, he looks me dead in the eye. In his gaze are steel jackhammers, quiet vengeance, a hundred thousand orbital bombs frozen in still life.

I suppose I'm going to have to come up with the next tale aren't I? Its my generation's turn, and we've been pretty busy. I just worry I'd end up sound too prideful.
