Boy, if you're trying to dig yourself out of that hole, I have a spoon you can borrow.

Tread carefully.

I own my words in the symbol I sign behind. I am not stupid enough to think that no one knows who it is who says these words. And yet, we now have nobles with fancy titles on one side claiming their 'right' to Kormyre, and the Count on the other seeking to put one of the 'correct' bloodline onto a throne. We are nothing but pawns in games to them and I say we do not play it the way they want. You want a name signed? Fine. Read it now and know who speaks up.

That's not carefully.

We have nobles so people like you don't get to have choices on the mass public affairs.

I think I read somewhere calling for revolution is illegal.

See you on the chopping block.

I think you read that in the law books. Pamphlet. Actually it's more like a piece of paper. There aren't that many really.

Khala, you've really done it this time.

To anyone even considering following this plan:
DON"T. Nothing Khala suggests is a good idea. She has so much innocent blood on her hands. During the times of Eden, THOUSANDS died because she thought it would be fun to start attacking the homunculi villages near where we were and eventually led others to doing the same. And she has yet to show any remorse. She is not worthy of your trust.

Seth,

If you think I actually want to rule, you are sadly mistaken. But some level of input would be nice. A level of input from everyone is my goal.

Selby,

Yes. I made a mistake. I have openly admitted that. I did not think my plan all the way through, but the reason we were found afterwards was because of another. NOT me. But what I did was action. Because everyone else wants to sit around and debate and not do anything about the problems. I, at least, made an attempt to fight back. But what I learned from that is that having the drive and fight is all well and good, however speaking up and finding other like-minds to work with gives your idea and your plan much more success.

Aleister,

Then why is it that I still run into people afraid to speak up against others because they are nobles? Commoners who let things slide and let things go because they don't think they will be listened to. We, as Travancians, always seem to wind up being the deciding factor in issue after issue. We have saved the entire world on multiple occasions. Why are we still under the rule of a King? And you even admit in your words that there are people 'beneath you', even though I do know that you have been better than most in care for those under your rule. But why is anyone 'beneath' another? Yes, I technically hold a form of title. I am a Dean at a school. But I have never once considered my staff to be beneath me. My students have open forums where they can talk to me like they would each other and their ideas are listened to. But when I come to Travance what do I see? Meetings of nobles where others cannot attend. I am watching as some listing of nobles I have never even heard of tries to stake claim to a throne that it turns out we haven't had anyone in for YEARS. And yet we are no worse for the wear other than the fact that yet another noble has been lying to us. Both sides are at fault. And now what is going to happen? There is going to be fighting where commoners are going to die for no reason other than the fact that they are told to fight by their nobles.

Khala,

Like I stated, you led others to do the same. That responsibility still lies on you.

Your problem remains the same as it was then. You confuse planning and researching with inaction.

Khala, the very act of surviving in that timeline was an act of rebellion against Eden. The act of feeding, clothing, and housing thousands of people was an action in defiance of Eden's will. We weren't just surviving. We were prospering. To not understand that was, and still is your greatest folly.

Gabriel,

Yes, because it's possible to be 'subservient' to a god that told his followers never to even bow to him. I do not bow or put myself at his mercy. Instead I live the tenants, and while I use the powers granted to me by following those, I also encourage my followers to find their own strength. Every bit of power I have is something that I have fought for and worked to achieve. I speak my mind and I show no fear to you or any others who think they can overpower me. I don't even let death hold me back. So if you think in 50 years I won't be known... you have another thing coming. I WILL be known. I have goals and I have plans being put into motion that do not concern the current topic at hand. I learn from my mistakes and will continue to grow. So call me what you will. Believe what you will. But know that in 50 years I will still be around and stronger than ever.

Lord Tartaros does not run the barony and thus has no say over what she is charged with writing on Baronial grounds.

Instigating rebellion is treason.

Under the authority of the Seneschal and the Baronial Inquisition she will be tried and executed as well as her rights and possessions seized.
