Fellow Aetolians,

I have no words to describe the amount of entertainment the past few
posts have given me. It is rare for me to laugh, but I must honestly say
these posts have been absolutley enjoyable. I wonder when they will
begin to get boring as all the trends in the Public Boards eventually
do....

However, seeing as to the fact this is the topic of the day, let me
recall some events that have happened in the past. Many of you are too
young to remember the disgruntled group of murdering hypocritical
"do-gooders" called the Swordsaints. They once tried to do something
very similar to what the Daru and Co. are doing these days. They failed
utterly, as this movement will fail either by direct oppostion of us
"lazy" (thank you Ele) evil ones, or simple Divine intervention. Though
Lord Rahn has seen it fit to burn the flesh of those defending
themselves against the Daru and their allies, it is only a matter of
time before actions such as those are no longer acceptable.

My advice? Either bear with the incessant posts and do nothing, waiting
for the Daru and their allies to get bored as they will obviously be
really soon when they start dying. Or, even better, take their word for
it and kill them as they waddle down the streets of Shastaan, and if you
still have some time go decorate their Guildhall with the corpses of the
villagers of their protectorate. I hear it is considered "art" in some
circles of the realm.

These views are solely my own by the way, for the moment.
