At What Cost?
A philosophical meandering.
I live a pretty basic lifestyle although it might seem nice to some. The summary of things is that I choose, when I'm allowed, to have more free-time over having more money. Some people seem motivated by nice houses, cars, a rich neighborhood. Obviously I like nice, clean, functional things myself over ugly, dirty and broken. But my questions towards the rich and secure lifestyle is always "at what cost?"

Description
Mistika Raincaller, soul of the temperate rainforest, is the keeper of balance. She calls the rain to nourish the land, yet summons the hunt to return life to the cycle. With a strike of her lightning arrows, the skies answer, and the storm falls upon the misty canopy. Predator and prey alike bow to her will, for she is both giver and taker of life.
