Sapience,

A lot has been said, and a lot of donkeys have been sprayed with perfume to try and change them into stallions in Ildiko's post, but unfortunately for her, it's still a donkey.

To answer some questions, this is very unlikely to have been something approved by the broader government of Hashan. Rubberstamped by a few in a dark corner of the halls and slipped under the rug for no one to see? Absolutely! Especially the corrupt Regent, was-Seneschal, who is married to the culprit in question. Ildiko, and cohorts Fendo, Asmodron, and Arcturus, advocated often for the patronage of Ildiko's god, Lord Vastar. It is not surprising that they would sell off the lab's products and findings to try and advance personal and political ambitions.

What is to be known quite clearly is this: Ildiko seeks to be understood, and I quite clearly do understand. She is a zealot, something Hashan allegedly does not support, who cares little for mortal life - innocent, evil, aged, or infant. All are obstacles, methods to advance the will of the Farethi and their Lord. Should some children who drink from Green Lake, Ka'dalokia, or the offshoots die due to a poison concocted with Hashani tools and Farethi ambition - who cares? How dare they get in the way of her works.

This is a clear note to all: your water sources are threatened, and opposition to the Farethi will see all the forces of Hashan's laboratory used against you. Ildiko asked you to understand her - now you do.

Signed,

Eril Rian
