Were you loyal before or after you blasphemed against the God of War for
not bowing to your petty, incessant babbling? Does loyalty also include
requesting the bards and idras to welcome you in as member even though
both organizations are in direct opposition to the aims of your Empire?

Much as you made your choices, I made mine. The Red Maiden gave me a
choice between a life of magick and a life in Ithaqua, it is more than
obvious which one I chose. I would not expect you to understand the
concepts of integrity, loyalty or dedication. Were I to cut tail and run
or complain about the state of things, then we could sit idly and chit
chat about the unfairness of it all and compare our similarities. Sadly,
I do not see that day in this lifetime or the next.

Your families history speaks for itself. You've sheltered three known
betrayers and thieves and ushered in a veritable army of known thugs and
hooligans all for the purpose of mm..ok well, I admit, there is no
purpose. There is a fine line of honour between a fine merchant and a
brigand. The merchant peddles his wares for coin, the brigand takes the
coin of others and makes it his own. You and your family would qualify
as the latter. These are not my words, but the accounts of history which
act as testament to the mettle of your blood line.

I have no officially 'insulted' your family, as if your words, actions
and lives have not already done so. Initially I was only chastizing
Zaniah's amusing post that was directed at Trenon as I saw no need to
call your families mis-steps to light. Ah well, the die is cast now
isn't it. What is the saying? Once a fleissak, always a fleissak? Its
fitting and quite true in this case.
