Firstly, Knick, your facts about the circumstances behind my leaving the
Cabalists are frightfully wrong. One, I didn't quit, I was outguilded.
Secondly, I did not rob the Cabalists of anything (though I really wish
I had).

The reason I outguilded the people was because I could see that Olorin
was going to fail as a GM, a fact which he proved by doing absoloutley
nothing during that time, before quitting the guild and becoming an
agent of corruption. (I was right, ha.)

I respect Vitiris as a person, and his leadership, but this is a dead
issue to me. The fact is, I have been in 2 guilds during my whole life,
and the only reason I changed cities briefly was because of that. If 2
guilds is a "Multitude of ogranisations for me to flow through" then
many of us are flowing so much we may as well be Slyphe.

I have been present for the killings of those 600 troops, Knick. I
myself led a division of Fanatics against a division of 200 oiof your
troops, which I am happy to say were wiped out with the loss of less
than 15 of our own troops. Our militia has proved that it can deal with
a number of your militia equal to or greater than its own, for instance
tghe other day, when we killed you several times. I must compliment you
all on the tastieness of your hearts, by the way.

We have something called hope, Knick. Like landmarking, we're saving our
cards for the time when they will have the most impact. We have in fact
captured into territory we have not had in years (though we have lost
that in the days since the curse), but I am confident we will push back
again. This is something we Ashtanites pride ourselves on: Our sense of
unity, and our deadset commitment to our task. We aren't stupid: While
cursed, we're sitting sucks for any half organised band of warriors, but
once equal, we will once more begin to stock up on bloodlochian heads
and hearts again.

My compliments, however, on convincing so many people I thought were
intelligent that fighting for the territorial gain of Corruption is in
the interests of them. *thumbsup*

Ashtan will not fall without a fight which will devestate all involved,
and that is if it stands alone. United, we will triumph. No matter how
many times I see you post on this board, calling me scum, for whatever
reasons you chose to do so, it will not change that fact that we are
well equipped to put up a good fight, and we're more than prepared to do
so. So be warned.

Arion give me the Courage to defend what I know is right,
The Discipline to back down from what I know is wrong,
and the Strength of Character and honor to know the difference.
