After defeating a great number of enemies, the Defender came to the Inspirer feeling beaten and lost.
“I am not fit to be your Defender. I am evil as I often let myself succumb to anger. Today, I have defeated a hundred men in my rage, yet I have almost killed an innocent mother and her child,” the Defender confessed.
The Inspirer’s eyes were kind and full of understanding as she replied, “You are not evil. You are a fighter, a warrior of righteousness, and it is but natural for you to feel anger towards unrighteous deeds. Anger is not evil. It merely guides you and alerts you against injustices that defy your conscience. It also gives you strength to fight that injustice, to have the needed courage for the moment and not be afraid.”
“Be alert of two things about anger however. Do not let it remain longer than necessary because it will consume you. Secondly, do not let it encroach upon your freedom such that you already do things you do no wish to do.”
“Be more powerful than your anger. Use your weapons wisely and do not be used by them.”
Find hope in your darkest hour.
