First off, Ariel, I'm going to be blunt. You're an idiot. Give the RL
props for 'pulling off' a simple trick. You called it a good political
maneuver, but the only thing it has accomplished was getting the entire
population pissed at Ashtan, any pity support it might have obtained is
most definitely out of Ashtan's frail reach. Brilliant maneuver, truly
brilliant. Its obvious why Spirokai has never ascended to the rank of
politician, *I say this assuming he was behind the fires* he is only a
thug, a relatively ineffective thug, considering the state of Ashtan's
militia.

Secondly, Ashtan -is- run by Spirokai. Why, I remember during the last
war, I could tell any of Ashtan's city leaders what to do, they supplied
some herbs, and merely got in the way of the people who knew what to do.
If you honestly think Spirokai can't, and doesn't, tell all of Ashtan's
leaders and citizens what to do, you are talking right out your rear,
sweety.

And to address yout comments about the RL, aka, Ashtan, being
out-numbered, and out-classed, well, half of that is true. Ashtan has
the numbers to fight, but the RL is too fearful of our superior
abilities to engage in a fight where they only outnumber Bloodloch by 1
person, let alone even numbers. They've taken to hiding on Ulangi, doing
absolutely nothing except during odd hours during the month where they
will encounter no resistance.

Now Ariel, your arguement about the RL actually caring about the city of
Ashtan truly amazes me. I was unaware there was a mind in existance so
inept, as to believe this. Honestly, the RL was kicked out of Ashtan!
I'd write more, except I am still slightly stunned that a creature can
exist that somehow managed to de-evolve into a less superior lifeform
than an amoeba. Varian must of created you as a joke. Who would of
guessed the Gods have such a cruel sense of humor?
