IT IS TOLD THAT MANY SIMPLY COULD NOT CONTINUE ON THE PATH FOR LONG BEFORE TURNING BACK SOME ARGUE THAT THE REBUKE THEY ENDURED UPON THEIR RETURN WAS CRUELER THAN ANY PUNISHMENT THAT MAY HAVE LAY AHEAD OF THEM ALONG THE PATH. IN THEIR FAILED ATTEMPT THEY WERE FORCED TO LIVE IN THE SHADOW OF THOSE WHO DID CONTINUE ON TO ACHIEVE THE GREAT GLORY AND HONOR OF ASCENSION INTO THE LIGHT FOREVER AFTER THEIR FAITH AND LOYALTY IN AURIEL WOULD BE SCRUTINIZED AND THEIR REMAINING DAYS FILLED WITH SHAME AND REGRET
