Babylon 5 Seven Deadly Sin
Wrath – Day 5
G’kar felt rage so deeply and completely that he did not believe that he would ever breathe again without pain. Londo had taken everything. Everything. His world was in tatters but even that was not enough for Mollari. He was set on destroying G’kar personally as well.
But his fury and anger could not fix anything.
Nothing at all.
They, coupled with his own hubris, was costing Narn lives every single day.
He had no right to be the reason his people died. He knew he must let go the anger, the pain, the hatred but how? How could the hate of a lifetime be laid by and how could the hater move forward? He spent a great deal of time thinking.
He could not fix Mollari, no matter what he did. Even Mollari’s death at his hands would fix nothing. It would only inspire more Narn to kill more Centauri and in turn be killed for that.
What had the voice said? “If both sides are dead, no one will care which side is to blame.”
That was it.
Hated was not the key. Anger was not the key. His righteous wrath was not the key.
The cycle of hatred must be broken and it might as well begin with him…
