I extend my apologies. Sometimes my fellow bards voice enthusiasms in
odd or very public ways.

I am sure Antioch's citizens never commit themselves to such mannerisms,
such as a priest claiming to purge Magick from Aetherius when he in fact
is sore about having to actually take responsibility of crimes that he
commited far ago, and has held feverishly onto false ideals to support
his otherwise feigned case for revelations towards a greater good.
Perhaps all anti-magick warriors truly do fight for a greater cause
other than fighting simply for the sake of fighting and destroying, when
essentially one-third of their city practices and preaches the need for
Peace.

Course, irony never rears its ugly head it seems. No one would ever
admit to being that hypocritical.

Lastly I don't find it odd that all that one preach never using 'the
taint of magick', but have to sip the same mana elixers that I and
everyone else who uses magick has to. Just mere coincidence, it seems,
to replenish yourself of powers that are supposed to be opposites.

However, I am ranting now. May Magick, or the absense thereof, Guide
you.
