For those of you who aren't directly involved in this tale, it would seem I am a horrid, cowardly, passive-agressive, lying 'murderess'(1). It is now time for me to tell my part, so all may come to their own complete conclusions.

From the beginning. This may offend some, but it is how my mind was thinking at the time. Disclaimer aside, here goes:
I read Eris' benediction upon Gwenhwyfar, and thought immediately, "Gwenhwyfar is chaospawn. She must be destroyed." Over the next 5 months, I've plotted, investigated(2), and waited for the opportunity to strike.
And then opportunity struck. Gwenhwyfar was outside. I attacked. She died.

-----For expediency, I assume you understand everyone's response to this action. Now for my defense.

I have apologized. I have died twice, once to Morpheus, and a second time, voluntarily executed by Aife, the mother of the child I attacked.
I acted alone. I did not talk with Elanta, I was not influenced by anything other than Eris' post on Gwen's birth, I never consulted anyone, in my guild or otherwise, prior to my attack.
I saw it as a personal duty to save civilization. I see now the err in my ways, and I am forever sorry. I have heard Heuya's accusations, I have a log of my own, and I will go toe-to-toe with her on every count.

To re-iterate the important parts, I acted alone. I didn't tell anyone. I've been punished, by my guild, and by the victims of my crime. My guild is not responsible for this crime. I put myself in the hands of those worthy to judge me.

Thank you for your time.
Gretyl.
