Runes of Sloth

Description

And here's #6 in the series of runes. Only one more to go! :w00t:

Though Indifference is most definitely an aspect of a lazy person, I researched a bit about the sin of Sloth and it turns out that when the concept of the Seven Sins was first created, the Sin of Sloth wasn't only about slacking off. During medieval times, what was thought to be the sin of Sloth was actually what we now call feelings of hopelessness, depression, and despair. That is why (as with Gluttony) I decided to expand upon things and added concepts related to melancholic emotions: Despair and Sadness.

Besides, while some people may seem lazy because they don't want to work, some forms of laziness can be the result of giving up on things. So I guess that's my take on it. Sorry for giving you guys another long explanation. ^^;
