Perfect grammar, I must say.

Greetings again, Aetherius.

In the midst of your failing to counter my points, not only did you make
a seemingly endless amount of grammatical and spelling errors, but you
mentioned that 'the friend of my enemy is my friend'. What? So if I'm
aiding your enemy, I'm your friend?

I am neither a 'Grand Stratesist' nor did I sit idly by whilst you
attempted to... 'laided seige' to my city. I slaughtered you all with a
large amount of guards, while you sat down, knowing how much you
deserved it.

I haven't 'cried about being beaten at a game' my forefathers created.
I've simply pointed out your hypocrisy, and in your anger, you threw
ineffective insults amidst grammatically incorrect, incoherent
sentences. Not anywhere in that paragraph did you manage to defend
against my points at all.

Now, to correct what I'm assuming you really meant.

The enemy of your enemy may be your friend, but I'd assume your stance
against magick would be much stronger after the same necromantic
abilities raided your city in the Demon Incursions those years ago. From
Necromancy came Noctu, from Noctu came Malignosis. There's your
explanation.

Obviously I was wrong. Can your citizens not stick to one belief
structure? Will they truly accept help from anyone? Perhaps you should
re-evaluate your strategy. Letting the enemy of your enemy assist you as
a friend may be intelligent at times, but that friend is still your
enemy, in the end. You're allowing them to understand your combat
strategies profusely by working alongside you. Should your 'friend' turn
on you when your mission accomplished, they will know more of your
combat strategies than you know of theirs, as only a small amount
assisted you amongst a large group. You never got a chance to see how
they worked with you, but no doubt they spent time studying your moves
and learning how to defend against them.

Give it time, Shah, and you will realize what a mistake you're making.

Now, perhaps you are correct that the Wytchen might not have been there
if I had stopped attacking him for a few minutes inbetween attacks by a
certain archer and a certain Justicar, but that still fails to counter
anything I said about it. My point was that your citizens sit by,
refusing to destroy the Wytchen, whilst a much more difficult foe stood
in front of them.

Your citizens allowed magick to be used in front of them, turning a deaf
ear whilst they attacked magickers behind them.

Your logic isn't existant, let alone valid.

The scribe did nothing wrong, blame your own intelligence.
