Having a larger "stick" does not always mean you are correct. I am in a good spot in that I come here to post my thoughts as my own, a citizen of Celidon and nothing more. To answer you is not my responsibility nor my obligation. Though I only have a few words to say to your pure stupidity of words.

The word bully is not tossed around lightly, and yet that is all I can think or comes to mind when reading your words. You do not get to speak for Celidon, nor do you get the right to say we have or have not been participating in what your city deems as "taking part in the realm". Since the very day, and as acting Talon during time of the first raids done. I can say that I reached out to all active cities and confirmed our stance. It isn't because we perhaps do not fight or want to fight, but more because we just don't fight to fight. In the words of your leader when I first asked initially....she replied bluntly "We are bored so that is why we raid". Sorry, that just isn't a view I believed in at the time and shared that with the Council. It was received and thus we went with our approach to "raids". You see, raiding is a such a minimal aspect of life and everyday we as a Council act within ourselves to strengthen not only our relationships, but the Council around us.

Now, I could sit here and ask silly questions that are a sad attempt to demean an active leader but why bother? We all know the goal of your post, and that is to continue showing the hand. We as Celidon are't bored, but we are unified in our beliefs as a Council. If those beliefs are not yours, then you clearly are in the right place.

If there comes a time to fight, Celidon will be there. I assure you of this....until then I wish you the best of luck in life and that you may inspire those of similar mind to do the same.

Tyden, a very content member of Celidon and the future.
