[posted early Thurday morning]

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.

[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?

[paladont]

I'm still in Zenderael. [THANKFULLY. He would not be able to cope on Earth he is p sure.]

Is it war there now?

[vallinar]

I hope not. If it turns to that, it seems like a ridiculous thing to start a war over. The way I have been hearing it is that Medena's solstice celebrations got out of hand, and Her Majesty was unhappy with how the local authorities handled it. Hence this.

[andlivefreely]

What was she expecting to happen? For Medena to get thrown in a cell?

[vallinar]

I have absolutely no idea. I highly doubt Earth has a cell capable of containing her as it is, although why anyone would attempt is beyond me.

[andlivefreely]

I'd be right surprised if anyone tried it, even if we did have one.

[vallinar]

I made a similar attempt once, foolishly. I shall never make that mistake again.

[paladont]

Ah...

Has the Vahishta been informed yet?

[vallinar]

I do not believe so. Earth authorities would not know who to contact in order to get her under control.

[Wait a minute... IDEA!]

Would you mind making certain he and the Spenta are aware of the situation? It is being covered on Earth news, so considering you apparently have access to Earth's internet in Zenderael, you should be able to find it online if they require proof.

[paladont]

[uh]

[what]

[anais you can write a dragonmail just as easily. he's not even in the same city as the spenta omg!!]

You can't send him a dragonmail about it?

[vallinar]

That is not the point, Savarna. If I were to send him dragon mail, who knows when he would see it? The situation in Everea being the way it is, it would not surprise me if it got buried. You are in Zenderael. If anyone can make certain they were to see it sooner, it would be you.

[paladont]

I'm on the other side of the country from him at the moment, Vallinar.

[vallinar]

[Wait, what?]

What in Xumurdad's name are you doing all the way over there?

[Anais has noooooooooooooo idea what's been going on in Zen after Aerveas took over Everea. :( She's so behind.]

[paladont]

How much do you know about the current situation here?

[vallinar]

The last I heard, Aerveas invaded Everea, but my communications with Zenderael have been sparse as of late. I am afraid I have been busy.

[Dragonmail: Anais Vallinar]

[paladont]

[because he's not sure how sensitive this information is and it's probably a bad idea to throw it up on the public forums that anybody can access]

[(what is PMing)]

The Spenta was captured and the remaining paladins led a rescue mission with the aid of the berserkers. We established a temporary base in Omghan, in the Kanareh, but once the Spenta recovered, he moved the majority of the guild to the Amber Eyes headquarters near the Nenakret, to assist the Mazda in enforcing Safta's recent curfew rules.

There's still an outpost in Omghan. I won't be moving on to the Nenakret until I'm fully recovered from mana burn.

[Dragonmail: Ravindra Savarna]

[vallinar]

[................what. WHAT.]

Mana burn?

What did you do?

[Dragonmail: Anais Vallinar]

[paladont]

[the hell do you think he did, anais]

I was part of the mission to rescue the Spenta. I stayed back so he could escape and burned out my mana.

[Dragonmail: Ravindra Savarna]

[vallinar]

[Clearly something STUPID if you wound up with mana burn. :|]

Did everyone make it out?

[Dragonmail: Anais Vallinar]

[paladont]

[rude it was a heroic gesture befitting a paladin]

It's impossible to avoid casualties, [he still feels guilty over Victor, even if he was resurrected] but the Spenta and Vahishta got out safely.

[Dragonmail: Ravindra Savarna]

[vallinar]

[Maybe, but if she finds out Victor was involved, all bets are off, dude.]

How many did we lose?

[Dragonmail: Anais Vallinar]

[paladont]

[excuse u victor sacrificed himself so the spenta could get out!!]

I don't know the numbers.

More than we could afford.

[Dragonmail: Ravindra Savarna]

[vallinar]

[In her mind, Victor's still a traitor to Bastan and one good deed doesn't excuse what he did.]

I wish I had been there to aid you. I feel useless on this side.

[Dragonmail: Anais Vallinar]

[paladont]

[he...does not know what to say to that.]

[um he was extremely useful, wrote all the letters to gather paladins for the mission, was on the Spenta's rescue team, and stayed back to fight so the Spenta could escape. THAT IS EXACTLY THE OPPOSITE OF BEING USELESS so we are not talking about this anymore because he is just going to make Anais feel bad]

You can inform the Spenta about the queen. That would be useful.
