Antioch,

You have been my home for thirty-eight years. And in the course of a
month, I managed to get myself kicked out and enemied. I've let this
public apology go to long. I didn't mean to. I was just trying to show
the city leaders what I was doing.

First, I'm sorry for calling the city leadership a tyranny. I've
mentioned this to the Mukhtar's myself, but now it's time for you all to
know. I understand the city's concerns. It was never the actual concerns
that bothered me, just how they were dealt with. With emotions high,
though, I acted rashly and didn't think things through completely.

Secondly, this is to the city and the 'dancers themselves. I'm sorry I
allowed things to go on as long as they did. I DID fail my guild. I had
gotten complaints about Toma's leadership, and I did let the fact he was
my husband get in the way of my duties to the guild there. I'm sorry.
For that, I can't apologize enough.

Thirdly, I'd like to apologize for making it sound as though the
'dancers weren't loyal to Antioch. We are, and I'm working towards
making it more obvious that we are. Loyalty to your guild mates is
important. Protecting the city your guild is loyal to is also important.
I said something out of anger, and out of a loyalty to my guild for what
seemed to me to be an injustice.

Any member of Antioch wishing to ask me details of the changes I've put
into the guild, please feel free to ask me. I won't post the details on
this public board. My sincerest and deepest apologies, Antioch, for
letting things go as long as they did. For those of you I owe personal
apologies to, you will be getting them. I'm also sorry that those of you
enemied the same month I was enemied were enemied for so long. I believe
I've gotten you all, and if I haven't, please let me know so I can
correct this.

In Service,
The Amira of Dance
Ellia Vuh'uni

My blade to strike our foes
My shield to defend our home
My spirit to keep me strong
