> 1) Posting this here, while within the Forum rules, is dumb. If you really felt screwed by what happened, you should have taken it up IC, written a note, made a prayer, sought salvation through BT. OOC complaining here will solve nothing, trust me.

> 2b) Actually, don't forget the mantas. That -is- a pretty weak excuse. You want evil artifacts near so you are reminded that evil exists?

> 3) There's not enough context here to figure out what went on. For all we know, you were off killing Balator orphans. It looked to me that whichever IMM spoke to you had it in for you from the beginning. I somehow doubt an IMM was lounging around Asgaard, looking for Paladins at random to fuck over. My guess: You fucked up beforehand, and didn't even realize it. Maybe I'm wrong, but the part where the IMM says "I speak of a lot of things." strikes me as ominous.

> 4) As far as greed, we have no idea what's in your backpack or bank account, other than the fact that it was once 47 million gold coins. How a Paladin got to 47 million gold coins without ignoring good ol' Code Rule #2 is a bit beyond me.
