Mhaldor and Ashtan have had their fights, and many continue to this very
day. As many Ashtani would say though, we both have a common enemy in
Shallam. I applaud your posts. Many of the Cyrenian and Shallamese see
this as an attempt to cause a sudden rift in their give and...give
relationship, depending on the viewpoint, but I see it simply as the
truth. You are talking to deaf ears my friend, for they are, in the end,
Cyrenian and Shallamese. They do not change their ways, regardless of
what happens to them, or what is obvious to the rest of the world. They
rely on "allies" to win victories, knowing that three other cities would
pummel them into the dirt had they not these allies. So, I am not going
to bother bickering about Shallamese values, or Cyrenian lapdogging,
because all see that already. I just hope that when the time comes,
either your city, or mine, or maybe even Eleusis, comes out the victor.
We do not require others, to do our jobs for us. I cannot wait to meet
you and your city on the battlefield Tenebrus, and what a grand battle
it will be.

P.S - Pardon the lack of fancy language, but I see not the point.
