Sapience,

With regards to matters of Strife, I dislike the use of words. But since there has been enquiries from allies and adversaries both, I'll keep this short.

Strife welcomes all harrowings and challenges, be they about shrines, about Virtues, about philosophy, about Strife itself.

You need not ask for permission to step into the storm of Strife. Rest assured that we will not ask your permission either. All that cannot withstand the crucible, whether the challenger or the challenged, will simply shatter like glass.

That is all.
