> Arbiters: Quintius, Imbrogno, Staile. You three are worth mentioning because you three are sticking Rager anger out. Your a semi-scapegoat and if you had the balls to sit down and talk it out or approach Minalcar you would have gained far more respect and this war would have ended long ago. Though you do stick it out at times, quitting the mud right after your book is taken is fairly shitty RP. Of the three of you I respect Imbrogno the most for hanging through the toughest and the roughest times.
I find it suspicious that your "pre-planned" idea to destroy the village took place two days after we declared war against you. If you had, if fact, planned this for some time, you would not have sent that scroll offering peace a week befre the War began.
Additionally, you make US the scapegoats for the War?? Um, the Ragers have been taking the book for quite some time now, way before you were leader. Also, you are suprised that an bunch of LG arbiters would rather fight a demon Lord from hell then knuckle-under to your bullying, threats, and unreasonable demands?
What about arbiter anger? You guys have been raiding and taking the book since Dhaevor and ever single time we tried to negotiate, I was ignored, by you also, or lied to by past leaders.
What makes you think you can bully people for RL months and not expect them to fight back?
As for quitting somedays, yeah, I and other arbiters got discouraged after 4+ months of this shit which is a hell of a lot longer than most would have stuck it out.
We did not start this war, but we shall end it.
