[[Do my eyes decieve me? To gentlemen that grasp what we have been trying to say? And yes...clearly you underestimate Doone's lightning fast ability to kill revolutions. Oocly, this war claim is exactly why joining you guys seemed to be a bad idea (and since I was not here for it..I can't change it anyway) at the time. However, it seems I was wrong and there are actually decent people in charge of the empire. Icly, Aelor'onn has never disliked anyone, only ones who are irrational and prejudice. For good reason. Also I have a question..how is an outpost going to be able to launch an attack on Oren given, time, location, and minimal resources (Thanks to Vander somewhat)? Not to mention out of the 20+ people we have...5-6 are only ever on.. To be honest, oocly, never wanted to join purely knowing something like this would form. Icly, while I dislike the current situation...I will abide by Doone. This is not to say I want revolution...I just wanted to be a free place for all.]] Aelor'onn quietly nibbles on a couple Khabbi Cookies, sips some tea, and listens to the Asulon Top Boy Band's Greatest Hits Album in his recliner.

Actually I find it cute how completely wrong your intel was. Also for the 'holy order' sending spies isn't exactly the faithful way to do it, but hey, I'll leave it like that. And 'pinning' you for meta gaming is not what I was aiming for...its called pointing out the holes in your logic. Other than that...I welcome the rp that will soon to come..including the delicious embarassment of the Oren empire when it finds nothing the scout reported..especially when the mages are hardly around as it were. See you all real soon <3 Lancel.

Double standards here? You also don't send an army for a few select people. You send an inquiry. Which is something you apparently have no idea how to do. I'm afraid I am indeed not understanding your method of thinking on either ooc or ic. You've talked to mages ooc, are suspicious they are living in khabbi icly.. and your griping about me with meta gaming?

May I remind you that Vander was the one that prompted the problem, since he was the one actually xraying. The only reason Mord was caught is because the tunnels Vander dug out were discovered later. Aside from the fact Vander still trying to make a strike report on Mord. I wouldn't have much of a complaint so much as a questioning of your basic systems as a society. Aside from the fact that most of the information giving on any level is apparently false, old or otherwise worthless. Not to mention the fact that no one has even talked about rebellion since the joining of Khabbi as a City-state. So either someone has meta-gamed, or your ic thinking is a bit funny.

[[i am actually tilting my head into my palm in flat out disbelief how utterly confused and backwards both your occ and ic function. Not only has Crestfall (The so called island you plan to use for an early strike) has been trading with us, helped us grow, gained us people and support, but it has helped shaped the economy we now have. And look alot closer at the map. Notice the swamp? The only reason our ship is docked is because it is light enough not to get caught in the muck surrounding the shores. To actually block with navy is downright a waste of time and effort. Add in the fact that the best suitable place to launch your army is the plains north of the fort...which is in the direct open area and ripe for the arrow point..not to mention the countless mobs you will have to wade through. Of course let us not forget the fact that no one has even conceived conversations about siege weapons or whatever else this 'scout' has told you. Also the rebellion phase came and went weeks ago when Khabbi became a city-state under the Oren empire. You realize the time difference, don't you? It has taken icly months for this scout to report this but is applying ooc time? On the subject of ooc and ic differentials, let us not forget the fact that the land was privatized under Mordecai BEFORE joining Oren anyway. Your war claim is therefore invalid unless you want to use the excuse that it is apart of Oren. Which still goes back to the same problem. This being either you have intel that is inexcusably old and stale, or you are not aware of the privatization of said land even being a city-state which you are aware of. That said, I applaud how this has snowballed because someone didn't feel like confirming suspicions, which tactically is the first thing to do and not sit there paranoid like a child without his security blanket. Instead of every other rational decision that is seldom made anymore, you gentlemen opt out for the brutal and simplistic view of kill or be killed. Where is the righteousness and faith I have heard Oren possessing? Clearly not with you, or this situation would actually be handled by men of understanding. I can understand that icly you guys are freaking out, I really do, but to be honest its a wonder how the orcs have not buried your kin yet. Think about it. This irrational thinking brings about the same disorder and chaos that ultimately brings down empires to begin with. Sure, take the land, go on and take whatever you want. In the long run, we can just bide our time elsewhere until the empire crumbles, and we'll be there with empty treat bags, and licking your bittersweet tears as we take the spoils. I would not be surprised if anyone were to take advantage of this anyway, which is probably the case. Go right ahead if you think your ships can somehow make it within blocking distance of the docks, given the heavy weights of armors, weapons, bodies, food, etc. Go ahead and paddle through the thick patches of mobs for us, or even better attract the ghasts that repeatedly haunt our shores. Or the enderman that have claimed many a life in Khabbi. Rest assured we will be right there when you arrive, just be ready to fight for your lives against nature, nevermind our own retaliations. Good luck in that bulking armor when you come too, I hear its great against the mobs..for a few minutes until you are swarmed. Either way, count on heavy to fatal losses. Until the battlefield, chaps. Cheers.

The First opening of the book reveals embedded writing, glossed by a peculiar air of magic. Hymn Of Memory Nevermore shall I sleep Under starry sky My body lay outstretched to me Misplaced in thought and time Through the forests brier Under great hand of stone Let you never be waiting For me to call your own Beyond the mists That call me home Twisted mirrors lie Visages and masks of white Never fool my midnight eye Drought in moonlight Crescent hair Shall she call me forever more Upon her arms I fade away Gone to the distant shore Isolated and wrought within The world wills upon me Wither and rot All to consume The shreds of life that joins
