Utterly amazing, Ysni has once again made a new Ashtan law to benefit
herself for mistakes she made.

Some time ago, Ysni banded together with two demented females named Clio
and Erato Thetis, also known as the two females who took the Occultists
and Ashtan for fools twice in the same century. During that time I was
still a part of Ashtan and was actively speaking out against Ysni, Clio
and Erato's ideals.

I warned Ashtan and the Occultists of what was to come and was being
threatened to stifle myself by both 'The Twisted Sisters' and Ysni
herself. They were busy looking for any means to rid themselves of me so
that their plans would go through without opposition. One day I was in
Ashtan with my wife, who at the time was my fiance, Niema. A young and
cocky little skamp named Mercedes entered the forge in Ashtan that day
and eventually began to start a arguement with me and my fiance, which
led to him attacking me. I killed him within the walls of Ashtan, but
not without just cause.

The group of Ysni, Clio, Erato, Brooke and others began to yell over the
area demanding that I be removed from Ashtan for high crimes of
protecting myself? When asked I told them I was defending my honour,
because in my mind that is exactly what I had done. Shortly after I was
escorted out of Ashtan and enemied for 2 years for a crime that I did
not commit.

Upon more than one occasion I tried to speak to Clio, Erato and Ysni
over the subject of their wrong doing. They would niether respond to me
or listen to me. So I payed my fine, served my time, and held my grudge
for the wrong doing orchestrated by these three.

Indeed, Clio and Erato did corrupt and harm Ashtan a second time, the
city and the Occultists were played fools yet again. Despite my many
warnings and efforts to stop it from occuring. Years later I was given
an offer by Ysni to rejoin Ashtan and have my former ranking restored to
me "Because I deserved it" according to her. She them went back on her
word and stabbed me in the back shortly after my being citizened again.
She once again exposed her long standing hatred of me and continued her
harsh words and treatment of me until I could not take anymore.

With what was left of my pride I told her I would kill her when the time
was right, today that time arrived and I took her life. Not because she
enforced Ashtan law, but because of the reasons she did so.

I achieved my revenge, that is all I wished for,
I have said my peace...
