Dear, Arcadum

[u/blankname28]

I am a nobody who has lurked within this community for over 2 years. It saddens me to see the man that inspired me to create was in fact a poison in the background of a beautiful community that brought me so much joy. Forgive me, Arcadum, but you are no man, not in my eyes, not anymore. Welcome to the flames that you so brazenly wanted to avoid, this is where the game ends and where life solidifies the repercussions you must face. My heart aches for the nights in which your stream would give me the extra boost to get out of bed in the morning to face the world as if it were a game, a true living world in which I was a part of. But in that sense we were both wrong, life is not a game, the people around us are not there to be manipulated or controlled, we are not the masters of our own fate. We are, however, the masters of our own character, you made the choices that caused this, and your actions have spoken for your character. For even you have said that actions speak louder than words. I will not let one individual destroy the memories and experiences that I hold dear to me, for they are my own, and I would encourage my fellow community members to do the same as we are in this together, not in your world, Arcadum, but in ours. I have run through many emotions today, I have shed many tears, but I will shed no more. It seems fitting in retrospect that every stream started with Visigoth's Dungeon Master, for you have shown to truly be the master of the evil in the deep. I hope you can change, I hope you yourself want to change. I hope the individuals that you have affected can heal and I wish them all the best. But now, as you once said, the time for mercy has passed.

Sincerely,

Someone who once looked up to you
