Hello everyone! I'm going to be starting up a "Dear Ocean" post. This is where you can reach out to your fellow Riftfairers if you're in need of advice or help, and you can do it Anonymously. Other people can respond to your anon posts to try and help you figure out a tricky situation, or offer up advice on all sorts of things.
If this one goes well, I may do another in the future.
I'll even start us off.

Dear Ocean,
Last month I saw someone that had hurt me, but he didn't stick around. We sort of got to talk a little, but I still feel like we left a lot unresolved. I don't know if I should still be angry and hurt by what he did, or if I should try to accept that he just doesn't understand me, but he was the first person who tried in a very long time.
Signed, Not-A-Monster

Who needs anon? Not him!
You are not strong enough to defeat your superiors and take either of their positions from them. It is understandable that you must hold your tongue in the face of such a reality. To do otherwise would risk your life needlessly.
But you must hold the hatred it inspires within you. Let it strengthen and inspire you. And if there comes an opportunity to destroy the one that destroyed your home, betrayed your trust, and degraded you, you do not hesitate to do so. Until then, you survive and you remember.
