Just to throw my two cents in,
Spirokai you may not have noticed, but Ashtan and Shallam are cities
that have stood where they are for long ages. Claiming that you should
be given the same right to rule over an area. While it is understandable
that you are so powerhungry, your attempts to get The 'Duiran
Confederacy' to give you land they dont own, will not work. Why should
you be given something after destryoing it? Well?
That would be rewarding you for doing it. Why should you be given land,
simply because you refuse to pay the Fines that have been in place for a
long time. It would have been a lot easier, and saved a lot of
heartache, had you just accepted the consequences of your actions.
How can you say you 'Fight for Freedom' when, on the occasion that you
aren't hiding in the Chaos Plane, you kill people that can't defend
themselves, or people that can, but you take them by suprise? End this
now spirokai, it would have been much simpler had your acceeded to the
"Evil Despotism" that is Duiran, but hey, it would have been faster,
quicker and much more easier on you had you done it.
That's my Two Cents for know
