Zen masters have long taught that we need to engage our demons, “ride our dragons” and learn to be at peace with them, or as Carl Jung put it, “make friends with our shadow side.” The great American contemplative, Thomas Merton, speaks of this need to seek the inward journey – “…what we are is to be sought in the invisible depths of our own being….” (Thomas Merton – No Man Is An Island 1955)

This is a rough draft of a story bit, regarding the world of Ordem, where Chaos rules. in this bit, we find Jenkins having become a pirate. For those of you who have not read the Chronicles of Ordine, Jenkins is a man who was swept away from the ship where Parsnip the Magnificent lay in slumber.
