To Xenomancer -
As long as there is inner peace at the moment of the tattooing, that won't be an issue. A period of meditation or purification before hand is recommended, in my opinion, for that reason and also to give the Tattoo the significance it deserves. Is the world in chaos? Or is it in the midst of an orderly process, similar to a body fighting off a disease. The bacteria doesn't cause the fever, the body burns it away itself...
Well said, Vagrant. You really put it in perspective here: On the planes even on the lowest levels parallel to this one, things are at peace.
Why it seems so out of whack, and why I'm so cynical on the whole thing, I don't know what got into me. Sorry. I apologize to everyone here. I'm very sorry about that.
