When a younger - Although admittedly skilled - member of the guild came
before me to ask my permission to write a post to all of Aetherius on
behalf of the Abhaen, I was very clear that it would be necessary for me
to approve this message before posting. This was not adhered to.

When I read what this young man wrote, while knowing the consequences it
would bring down upon me personally, and yes the guild as a whole, I had
no choice but to support him.

While those around him fought to support his words however, he displayed
uncommon cowardice unbefitting an Abhaen.

For his actions in endagering both city and guild, and for his actions
both disrespectful, and cowardly to enemy and ally alike, Ravian has
been removed from our ranks. He has been enemied to us, cast out as
though he never were.

In light of his premature declaration of war, and his inability to
follow through, we retract this declaration on behalf of all except him.
We no longer associate ourselves with this man. Instead we leave him to
you, to deal with as you see fit.

Should you feel the need to punish this child, feel free to do so for
his presumptuousness. If you feel the need to punish me for allowing
this disruption to occur, then I will meet you on the battle field. If
you feel the need to punish the Desert Jewel for any of this, know that
we will, as always, meet stehl with stehl.

For all else, we will continue as though he had never spoken.
