Greetings, everyone.

I've sat back for too long playing the loyal Secretary act. I've gone
out of my way, changed my entire lifestyle, for a guild that I loved.
However, guild negotiations will do me no justice when it comes to what
needs to be said.

At one point in my life I was named Keeper of the Saboteurs. I did
think, at that time, that my input was actually listened to. Recently I
realized, however, that the right words can keep me quiet. That if I'm
just fed nonsense I'll go back to my own work. Not anymore. Things
started changing, through the words, eyes and branches, of other people.
And yet, I continued to watch this happen when I should have stood up
for my guildmates and myself.

It is now, which might just possibly be too late, that I realized I was
helping people hurt this guild. I didn't stand up for what I knew should
have been done, or stopped. I followed like a loyal Secretary to watch
this guild get even worse of a name. I will openly admit I did nothing
to help it. I'm not claiming I'm proud of what I've done. I'm stating
I've realized how rash I was. Everyone changes. It was also just
recently I come to realize that all people make honest mistakes. Trying
too hard to fulfill different areas in ones life will do this to a
person.

I suppose the main reason of this post is as follows. I awoke from
slumber just the other month to the news that the Crux Shade and a
fellow Domini had engaged us into yet another war. It was then that I
realized the best interest of this entire guild was pushed aside for a
few peoples' rash actions. I've sat back and watched the two sway things
for their own selves for too long.

I'm here to say that this was not the choice of all Saboteurs. Many have
asked me what the logic is of this, and sadly enough, I cannot give an
answer. I don't know of an answer. I've attempted speaking with an
Idrasi Secretary, and after wasted time of trying to be outwitted when I
was trying to find a smarter answer to this "battle," I came to the
conclusion that perhaps the Idrasi's want this to continue. I can't help
fix things when some just don't want to fix it either.

If that's the case, I will not continue to try and overlook the actions
of two people. If the innocents of my guild, my family, are harmed, I
will be right there beside them in the future. Until some people realize
that a few deaths solve nothing, sadly enough, nothing will ever change.
And at this point, I can see nothing will probably ever change.

Whatever guild issues arrise from this post, I am willing to face them
with the knowledge that I asked for it. However, I will not continue to
stand on the sidelines and watch the guild I'm supposed to help run, be
run by two people.
