Greetings Sapience

In the past 2 years something really odd has happened and the same old
Glint-excused has turned those foolish, suiciding raids, into a full
scale wannabe war. I come to you and ask the ashtani involved in this
'war' of theirs a few questions. First of all: What do you get from
this? What are your benefits? You really think you can subdue a whole
city?! You really think our Lady Ourania or Lord Matsuhama will allow
this? The most you can achieve is maybe to create more turmoil behind
the Hashani walls then there already is.
Second of all, please look at the people raiding and notice that most of
them are Ashurans. So this is more like a war of the Ashurans against
Hashan, who all of a sudden failed to find a better bashing spot and are
in a desperate need to get more dragons on the role.
Swishowski was and still is a good friend of mine. He was there on the
front, defending Hashan countless times. He fought and he was proud of
it. His foolish hatred for the leadership that he considers to have
turned their back on him , has brought him to a personal crusade, that
has no chance of success. I beg of thee Swish, to consider that this is
the city in which you grew, that here resides the house that made you
the mage you are and here we teached you the first steps in sorcery.
Remember that you have sworn to be the last sorcerer and have made your
first Oath behind these walls. Even if you are angry on the Hashani
leadership, don't unleash your fury on the hashani citizens and on the
ones that you once called "housemates" and "guildmates". Show some
honor, sorcerer brother.

For those of you describing those raids in such beautiful words, and
with so much enthusiasm , I have nothing else to add, then just feel a
little sorry for you and for your foolish minds. You consider slaying 46
guards means you can take a whole city? We can replace guards faster
than you can sip health, our city's coffers are well filled and if need
arises we can double them faster than you can portal to Hashan. I wonder
how much you will realise that your 'achievements' do nothing else than
anger the citizens of Hashan and dispose you of their possible services.

One last thing. You speak of all those hordes of thieves and criminals
we hold behind our walls...Oh lemme count the most famous ones: we have
Glint, urmm, Glint, aand Glint and last but not last Glint...oh and
let's not forget Glint. Yeah that's a huge list of dangerous criminals
and thieves we have there. Goodnes, we are a menance. Stop making such
pathetic excuses for your actions and act responsibly for your actions.
Your desires for power and to subdue the Crown of Ithmia is well known
throughout Sapience. But as I mentioned before, I am sure that most of
the citizens will say something like this "OVer my dead body and only
when death will be permanent".

So why don't we just ignore this silly 'war' and get back to our old
business. Why can't we remember together that Hashan stood by Ashtan's
side in the past. Hmm? And if we are into criminal and thieves hunting,
let us get together with Shallam and start hunting the thieves Ashtan
holds, and I assure everyone that those are by far in a larger number
and have less honor than anything else in this world.

Now, I must depart. And for once, stop making all those 'historical
descriptions' of how you defeated the forces of Hashan. It's very easy
to make one of how the raiders got their behinds owned and fled away
from out cataclysm.
