Recently, I noticed something that somehow eluded me before. Zephy's
engagement to Arafel, a Duiran guildmaster.

I can't understand how the residents of Bloodloch could be so trusting
even as disaster looms over them. Bloodloch expended ten times as many
resources as Duiran in the war, and Duiran got ALL of the land besides
the roads for Bloodloch's armies to march down.

I reiterate, Duiran got ALL of it. Zephy has expended the Bloodloch
Imperial Military and all of the spoils have gone to her wife's
organization, not her own. Bloodloch was ruined, win or lose at the
start of this. It's completely and utterly undeniable.

And yet, I've been exiled from Bloodloch for bringing this up. No one
ever made a single counter-argument besides "you don't know the whole
story" but frankly even an idiot could see the things I've pointed out.
Those left in Bloodloch are even lower than the common idiot.

I could go on and on about this, but no one who could do anything about
it cares. It's as simple as the law of gravity, but some people are just
flat out terminally stupid and will give blind faith to what is working
in plain view for their own destruction.

I may be exiled from Bloodloch, but I will at least accomplish one
thing. I've begun exterminating forestal locations. Not pansy burning
but extinguishing all life therein. I will keep this up as my new hobby
until I can come to an agreement with Zephy (or another Keeper) and
Alsai, Margali etc. This will of course include my either being told the
"full story", as obviously they know things I don't and everything is
going perfectly according to their plan, or they will admit their
corruption and stupidity so that I don't have to keep stepping on these
lemmings.

`K, Tercetto.
