It would seem that yesterday, Queen Omid decided it would be a splendid idea to storm the town hall of Fall City, and take the officials inside hostage.

Being a paladin formerly of Everea's Bastan, there is a part of me that feels as though I should apologize for Her Majesty's actions, but even I do not believe I can condone this. There is a way to go about things to try to make your voice heard. This is not it.

Was she always this way? I never dealt with her directly, so I am afraid I cannot say, but, regardless, I do not believe this is the best course of action.

[And a few minutes later, the post has been edited to include:]

And it seems this has resulted in the mobilization of the national guard. I do not see this ending well.

[oh this is kind of scary actually. he'll be in trouble if Fall City becomes more Bastanized...]

[... anonymous though...]

She is an inexperienced ruler. A token, and little more. It should not be surprising. The guild leaders are not here to advise her.

[vallinar]

Still, she should have more sense than that. Inexperience should not be used an excuse for doing whatever she feels like.

[deathbell]

Yet she does not.

She is of no use to her own people.

[vallinar]

Perhaps she could be if given proper incentive.

[deathbell]

If her responsibility to her country is not enough incentive, then there is no reason for her to remain on her throne.

[andlivefreely]

Maybe she was, but she always had the Vahishta and the Spenta there for council.

I can't imagine it ending well, either, unless a guild leader can talk her out of it somehow.

[vallinar]

I was under the impression we were in short supply of those on this side.

[andlivefreely]

Maybe a letter. I don't know.

But that does mean the chances of it ending well are pretty slim.

[vallinar]

A letter. Hmm... perhaps we should write to the Spenta.

[jupiter_bands]

A guild leader?

Like any old guild leader we can find lying around?

[vallinar]

If we had one was on this side, I suppose it would not matter who they happened to be. They would certainly have more authority in her mind than someone like myself.

[jupiter_bands]

I might know a guy who knows a guy

who knows a guy

[vallinar]

Yes, you said he knew someone once already. Is that going to be helpful?

[Anais does not speak roundabout yet, Harriet :(]

[andlivefreely]

Well get that guy to go talk to her.

[deathbell]

[this is also scary]

Advise this guy to enlist help.

[Give her a minute here. Still trying to brain this whole 'keyboard thing']

Can you read this?

[vallinar]

Yes.

[ghostlyheiress]

[Babe nothing is coming up. Yeah, of course I'm looking at the screen. what the hell do you mean 'reload'. There's no button that...oh. *reloads page*]

Okay cool. I just wanted to say one thing.[Whoops. sent the message instead of pressing enter]

2/2

[ghostlyheiress]

Called it.

[vallinar]

...I assume this is Lynea. If so, I would like to know why you happen to be telling me this over the internet as opposed to directly to my face.

[ghostlyheiress]

because I have a certain special blanket over me and I don't feel like moving from it.

Glad to see you don't agree with the queen though. So what do you plan on doing?

[ravi has been lurking on the boards since he got his tablet back, but not really paying close attention and not commenting on anything]

[except uhhh 'vallinar'? and it's a post about queen omid?]

[mulling over whether to say anything...]

[it could be anais's...play...er...no eileen doesn't talk like that this is definitely anais]

Anais?

[username Broken Mirror, userpic a tortoiseshell cat, TAKE A GUESS ANAIS]

[vallinar]

[Wait, who....

...........is that Mittens as his userpic? Because that looks suspiciously like Mittens to her.]

Savarna?

[paladont]

[It's not mittens! but it is pretty close.]

Yes.

I didn't expect to see you here.

[vallinar]

Neither did I. One must adapt, I suppose. Technology is very confusing.

Have you crossed here or are you still in Zenderael?
