The Creatures Of The World- On Minotaur

Through my travels as a powerful mage, I have seen a few of those giant, bull headed beasts. Part man part bull; all meat. I am, of course, talking about the Minotaurs who are seen in caravan bands with bandits or in Arenas as champions.

These beasts are not of Nature, and it shows. They were not created by Our Queen of Nature, Déesse. As a Axoen elf, who is one of the purest type, I dare say these things are not to be classified as to having rights under the Codex, They do not live under The Fives Ways, and they dare worship The Old Gods but seeing them as their own race-The damn beasts.

They live of the coast of the Dwarven lands to the east, in small closely put islands. They hunt, fish, farm and have everyday things. They think that they are people! The nerve of those beasts. Minotaurs have thick layers of skin making them resistant to most weapons, and they seem to take no damage from iron weapons, and a little from steel. This is proving my theory that these beings are nothing more than animals as most monsters have natural resistance to these things.

The thought of it is turning in your head, mulling it over....when have thy ever seen what would pass for a Minotaur that possess the ability to be astute; nor one that's intelligent perceptive or savvy? No- a grace like yourself never has. Why is that? Because they were meant to be nothing more than bulls, working in field? To be put down at the first time? It is of bovine head, that they can not cast magic. Why? Even when they pray to the Holy Five, the Best and Blessed- they still do not have to power to wield magic. The thought that they are this doltish means one thing- They are not of equal race! They are nothing more- no! They are less than slaves!

The Five and The Codex shall talk my ear-hole off for weeks to come, but I shall never give in! For I, and I alone, see that these beasts for what they truly are!
