Motion To Reform The Tulruir

[Mercury199 86]

The note is written with great care on truly fine standard and hangs on the message board written by an anonymous person

It saddens me that I must post such a note but sadly I must. I motion for Celia Sullas to be removed from the position of Tulruir'Aclan. These are the reasons why.

• Gambling away 12,000 minas of the cities money
  
• Increased aggression towards visitors
  
• Sale of weapons and armor to those who are our enemies
  
• Overstepping her "Powers" in several cases Violating the duties of many of the Tulriur Namely Arthane as of late. Taking it upon her self to decide the laws of our silver city.
  
• Murder of two pure Mali'aheral
  
• Attempted murder of a pure Mali'aheral ( Arrows Fired at Dellona )
  
• Assault of a pure Mali'aheral(Myself Ellir, both of Kolyat's daughters have been struck by her before)
  
• Refusal to pay wages to workers of Haelun'or for several weeks ( without money into ones pocket at an economy dies )
  
• the massive waste of resources on an island she sold for personal gain, while another project was occurring for the good of the city.
  

You the rezidents of Haelun'or must decide if she is to be removed or not. Please reply stating your position in Five elven days the votes will be tallied. If you vote for impeachment Celia has agreed to step down.

Votes of those who are under the age of 18 or have not been residing in Haelun'or for over two years will not be counted as they have not witness enough to form an accurate opinion. Also those who have been absent for some time will not be counted.

I vote Yes for removal.

I second the movement

[Lynesse {Celia/Jazzy} 398]

"Seeing as how you yourself can vote yes for removal, I vote no.

Let us begin to de-construct your points. Firstly, Ursakar. Surprised as you may be, I do have my own money Kolyat. This was personal money used. I am curious on how you even know about the situation. I keep my money in different places, each used for different things.

Second point. "Agression towards visitors", eh? Examples please. I am lenient towards visitors seeing as how I am usually the ones who write permits for them. I find it silly how you are accusing me of such things without actual examples and specific proof. Yes, I am a bit of a jerk to these outsiders, I admit that yet I do it for the progression of the city. It is quite hard to not be rude people who are generally rude to your people. I see it as sticking up for ourselves. Maybe too much self-pride coming from me. Infact, you are increasingly agressive to your own kin. Only a day ago you called me an achkri

Third point. "Sale of weapons and armor to those who are our enemies." Once again, any proof. The only person that I have sold armor to recently are from Oren who according to you are our friends and allies. The name of one of them is Deke Valentine. As far as I can see his name does not have Flay or Camel Bandit in it. Actually, I did send a letter to Redbain. I later canceled the trade. No harm was done here.

Fourth Point. Overstepping my powers... There is ONCE where I negotiated diplomacy with ArmaLuna. Once. This can be weighed equally to you putting trade into our pact with the Kha.

Fifth point. You say I murdered a pure mali'ahreal? Names? I have not killed ANY pure mali'ahreal. Tsk tsk, Kolyat. You need to do your research.

Sixth point. Attempted murder of a pure Mali'ahreal? Names, names. Never have I laid a finger on a pure mali'thill. May I also point out that you cannot be an pure mali'ahreal. I believe what you mean is pure mali'thill.

Seventh point. Assault of a pure'mali'thill. I will say this again. Examples. I assume you are talking about Delonna. I purposely did not shoot Delonna at the time of the battle. I'm sure Yuln and Seth can vouch for that. I only shot Rei and one of his friends.

Eight point. Refusal to pay wages eh? Hah, you obviously do not understand economy, Kolyat. I had stated that there was an unstable economy. Before I there was never actually any payment. A request was given from Lucion to stop the wages program. Haelun'or cannot afford at the moment to afford anyone.

And the final point. Ah, Kolyat. How quick you are to jump to conclusions. The island was originally mine. I had intended to use it for the city's science research. After some digging, I realized that the island was dangerous. The ground below was extremely unstable and it's form was very prone to erosion. The money (100000 minas) is going to the city. 10000 minas to Seth and Barbu. The rest will be divided to fund projects.

~~ Celia Sullas.

[Dio Astóre 69]

Happening upon the grimly informative message, Dio retrieves from his robes the compact scribing supplies he kept about his person without fail. Unstopping the nigh empty vial, he sets a large, weather-worn quill within the mildly congealed ink, setting it to a neatly divided square of parchment:

Those members of Haelun'or decreed to be accepted by the Mali'aheral community bear the freedom to maintain their own currency without reservation. Leisure is not to be defined with the quality it describes, however clearly remains an aspect of culture which is not by account of its own nature forbidden. The sum in question is of an amount which - given the focus the accused Tilruir has elected to choose - is well within their means to acquire for themselves.

Displays of hostility are a volatile means of interaction with outlanders and thus should be used in a prudent manner. Consideration to the intent of words shall always be encouraged; wise words are not to derive the truth of meaning from them on the solemn perception of what the flesh permits. Should Mali'aheral desire to acquire for themselves in the utmost direct means the fortitude of an outlanders heart, their spirit of temperance, they are cautioned, though not condemned.

Regarding those that discourse over power, the counsel I may offer is directed to those whom believe they possess any measure of freedom in exacting their own wills. Whilst the Vallah use their titles to invoke authority; that loyalty beyond the blessed Haelun'or is determined by mere sound and faith, such folly I expect to be beyond my own kin; Tilruiran have power so much as they possess the trust of their fellows - required to exact their will.

Grave as this claim assigned may be, it is equal measures irrational as improbable that our kinsmen - whom amongst themselves they may place their confidence and pride in - would turn to ill intent toward one another. To speak of such atrocity is itself detriment to our ancestors and not lightly should one judge with such tempest. The validity of a nameless accuser is not one I shall place credit in.

The formal payment systems as outlined by the lady Ellir remain to exist with a degree of what I witness as foreign, the acquisition of coin for labour is an fair compensation for those that desire it, though to them it remains the responsibility of ensuring their claim. The temporary suspension of this system was done with just cause and was not met with dispute.

What benefits a single of the Mali'aheral, benefits them all; the cursed mirror of these words holds likewise true. To intend to usurp the reputation of one of our noble race is insult to our forebears' ways. Those that support such notions share in the shame of this. That the lady Sullas has met these circumstances with no resistance demonstrates better the spirit in which lives wisdom. Blame being sought via the road of testimony? Mine I have given as Maheral.

Yours' remain.

The remainder of the blank spaces upon the parchment have a large, curvaceous letter D signed, removing a third of them.

[Mercury199 86]

After Careful observation I vote Yes to replace. Though unless the accuser can come forward with evidence on some of the more extreme charges I will choose not to vote.

- Kolyat

[Lynesse {Celia/Jazzy} 398]

After Careful observation I have Kolyat vote Yes.

"You already wrote yes... You wrote the impeachment in the first place."

[Dohvi 622]

Due to my part in the recent incident, I chose not to use my vote, but would like to say I feel that Celia has done a fairly good job as Tilruir’Acaln, despite threats of war and an unstable economy.

As for some of the accusations, there are multiple of I know nothing about, and hence will not comment on, but need I remind all that the Kolyat is the tilruir'llirn, and hence it is very much his job to be attempting to forge alliances, whereas it is not Celia’s and therefore comparing the two is a poor defence.

As for the recent outbreak of violence, I am most disappointed with the way you handled it. You made various wild accusations, without any explanation or proof as to the crimes you claimed he committed. My understanding is that this was the first time anyone was made aware of the crimes Rei is accused of, and that it seems you acted alone in declaring him a criminal, and attempting to persecute him. You were extremely stubborn, and in my opinion forced the following violence to occur. Once Rei ran, you made no effort no pursue him, rather you turned to accusing and threatening Arya and myself. You used your bow to physically threaten us, in response to childish bluffs made my Arya. When I placed myself between Arya and Celia, an arrow was fired at my feet, by Celia.

I am most outraged to hear you say you purposely did not shoot at me, as had it not been for Kolyat’s medical skills, I would have bleed to death from a severe arrow wound, which only Celia or Yuln could have inflicted. This same wound is also inhibiting my ability to perform my duties as Tilruir’Nor, so do not go trying to claim you didn’t attempt to murder, or assault a pure Mali’aheral.

As for the sale of the island, should I remind you that until recently, I was on that list of people you were going to give money from the sale to? For the two thousand logs, and the 600 units of dirt I gave. You seem to have forgotten that Celia.

~Delonna

[steelersfan1221 300]

Peers at the note and reads it over and over.

I am not sure whether I should vote yes, or no. Seeing these accusations Kolyat has made, I would probably vote yes. But the issue is, I have never had a bad experience with Celia. She has also clarified all of the points you have made Kolyat...Not making them seem as bad. For now, I am a bit torn.

At the moment, I have no stand on this. Unless of course, somebody can convince me otherwise.

[misssasy11 2]

I believe that Celia has done a very good job. On many occasions I have seen her giving out pay and organizing pay at the inn. Also I must scoff at your comment of Celia attack my Haelun. Never before has my Haelun said a foul word about Celia. And never before has Celia layed a hand on my Haelun. I also helped her in building her island. And she is very correct about it being dangerous. The creature of the night lived right below us. It was also a very long trek out. I doubt many elves would like to travel out that way. It was very well built and I am not surprised it sold for so many minas. But I highly doubt Celia had any ideas of keeping the money for her own needs. It was built for the city and so she would give the money back to the city. I have the utmost faith in Celia. So I vote no for her to be replaced.

~Delonna

"If your name is cleared, your monetary reward will be given. I'm still confused on you. Once again, it was not I who shot the arrow. It may have been Yuln, then. The arrow at your feet was used in me and Arya's roleplaying. Not even your boots were scratched. (By arrow at your feet, she meant right infront of them. Even if they did hit your feet, you didn't emote it. :/ )

[Dohvi 622]

I dont really know what there is to be confused about. I tried to talk you down, and placed myself between Arya and yourself when you threatened her with your bow. Yes, i opened the ship's gate to let them in, but only because you were already fireing apon not just them, but Arya and myself aswell.

[Eleatic 1033]

Looking to the note with a deep frown, he takes out a sharp coal from his pocket, writing under it all:

"Celia has no right to be impeached, I've seen her do excellent work in the short time I've been here.."

The note ends with a signature

"Ikur'Taeleh Naeir - Innkeeper."

[KannAllyEnd 12]

Ante'vuln shakes her head before attaching her response to the others.

My friends! How like old Vallah crones you sound. Bickering away, a circumstance of 'he said she said' given far more significance than it merits! You who trust your leaders so little forget that Celia's title is but an official representation of her relationship with you, lliran. We are but a dwindling family, we Mali'aheral. Once we begin to divide ourselves, especially over petty squabbles so far removed from the designs of Haelun'or herself, we lose our right to hold ourselves above the standard of those we despise! Those who have an argument with the Mistress Sullas should take it up with her personally, rather than create an inflammatory indictment against her, turning the issue into an embarassing public spectacle. We High elves describe ourselves as beings of pure reason. But this! This is mob-rule at best, the farthest thing from constructive conflict resolution. What is next? Pitchforks?

My vote is no, in case there need be further clarification-- and with apologies to Mistress Sullas for this entire, ridiculous tribulation.

The note is signed Ante'vuln Llumcelia.

[Dohvi 622]

*Delonna looks at the progress of the notes before walking away in disgust, angered that Celia's crimes have been ignored by the majority.*
