Antioch is not like you Ithaquans, they flail for identity since the Death of the Gods stripped them of their delusions of purpose. You call yourselves anti-magickers, then what are you without us? Ithaqua will always have your independence, but without it, Antioch is full of only warm sand and sticky citizens - a cultureless husk. They are nothing without magick, whether as allies or as enemies.

Antioch's gates opened because Antioch was not afraid of its opposition. Even then the Farah had to subvert the vote of the council for this small squeak of something to stand for. I did not think Antioch could top that, but cheers to Laeka for upping the ante. Purity? Ha! They can't even make a law without corrupting their politics. Be glad your Gods are dead or They'd be ashamed of this farce of a city.
