Concerning the Proposed Deal with the Abyssal Lords of Fire & Ice

I suggest leaving the straw men in the Fields of Fallow.


~Nalick

Mantel,

Spreading lies about our faiths does not help this discussion or endear you to anyone. Please stop claiming to know things about our tenants 9r what out God's told us. Your attempt to malign the churches is doing the demons work.

So Master Haroldson comments with a definition of demon that includes “evil” as a description and rather than address that or give him an modicum of credence, we instead criticize his character, even after disagreeing with the nature of demons. There was a point of contention regarding the nature of demons, so here is Master Haroldson’s response. Something tells me there is a slight amount of bias involving this criticism of Master Haroldson. Personal attacks and statements like Caldor has identified are doing more harm than good. Master Haroldson has provided a definition of “demon”. Let’s not tarnish that by attempting to insult him or demean his character.

I still stand vehemently opposed to the original and revised contracts. By no means can I reconcile making contracts with demons.

Merely crane your necks slightly higher than eye level to read the Seneschal's warning that we not resort to petty squabbles. Does no one see the irony in attempting to 'demonize' our fellow subjects?

The discussion about whether or not demons are inherently evil was necessary and relevant, but Lathiel and Nalick are right to give you warning.

As it seems the question of nature has been settled - they are creatures of supernatural Chaos, not supernatural Evil - this bickering about the Churches in this posting will cease. Argue about the validity of the Church of Light's dictionary elsewhere (I may join in on that - it seems an appropriate war for a Chroniclerite).

All,

I retract my appeals to ethos present in the previous missive; my intent was to highlight another well-known example of the Churches' ability to make mistakes in record-keeping, and was not intended as a personal affront to any individual, Church, or Faith.

I take full responsibility for breaching the terms of this open forum and submit myself to any corrective action deemed relevant by our host, the Seneschal.
