When you are reading fantasy and it doesn't differ much from reality

"Raseev Kalikan’s view of himself was complex and distorted. People saw him as honest and a loyal worker for the good of the town and its people. Therefore, in his own mind, that was what he was. The fact that he misappropriated town funds for his own benefit, and awarded building contracts to those of his cronies who paid him bribes, did not alter his own view of himself. On those rare occasions when his conscience pricked him he would think: “But this is how the world works. If I didn’t do it, someone else would.” He used words like honor and principle, faith and patriotism. His voice was rich and deep and persuasive, and when he used those words in his public speeches he would often see tears in the eyes of the townsfolk who loved him. It was most moving, and, caught up in the moment, he would become quite emotional himself. Raseev Kalikan truly believed only in what was good for Raseev Kalikan. He was his own god and his own ambition. In short, Raseev Kalikan was a politician."

Inspired by two of my favorite things, music and books.

🎸🎶🎶🎸🎶🎸🎶

She likes flaming whips, she likes Dwarven mines

But she won't let me use my passion unless it's in a chasm deep

🎸🎶🎶🎸🎶🎸🎶

She got me under pressure,

She got me under pressure

🎸🎶🎶🎸🎶🎸🎶

She likes the depths of Moria, she don't like the Fountain of the King

She fun at the Anfauglith, she likes it in a Elven dust

She don't like giant spiders, she likes whips and chains

She likes fisstech and filppin' out with the mightiest Vala

She's about all I can handle, it's too much for my grey form

🎸🎶🎶🎸🎶🎸🎶

It's got me under pressure

It's got me under pressure

🎸🎶🎶🎸🎶🎸🎶

I'm gonna give her a warning

Here's what I'm gonna say

"You shall not pass!!"

She might get out a fiery sword

And hurt me real real bad

Throughout the Endless Stair until a snowy peak

🎸🎶🎶🎸🎶🎸🎶

It's got me under pressure

It's got me under pressure

It's got me under pressure

It's got me under pressure🎸🎶🎸🎶"
