[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.

[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.

[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.

[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.
