O Great Beacon of Light of this world, please, illuminate my
surroundings that I might find myself. Imagine! Not knowing I wasn't
found!

I appreciate your prompt response to my post. Before I reply however, I
ask that you please shine your beam on my logical errors and I will be
more than happy to correct them. Also, please reveal to me a deeper
understanding of the...many things I've misunderstood. If you recall, I
did say within my post that "I welcome a more knowledgeable person to
correct me if I am wrong." While you've pointed out that you think I am
indeed wrong, you do not take up the request to correct me.

Moving forward!

Once we get to the meat of your response you state that:

"In allying with and encouraging the spread of the Occult within
Sartan's pit, Evil admits that it is incapable of staying true to the
propaganda it espouses."

I believe that here we see another disconnect of rationality (and if you
disagree with this, then try to correct me this time?). What you surely
mean to state is that rather than Evil allying itself with Chaos (or the
Occult as you phrase it)*, the citizens of Mhaldor have in the past
allied themselves with the citizens of Ashtan. While these two cities
have the greatest concentrations of the followers of Evil and Chaos
respectively, this is not a sign that the ideologies themselves have
allied. Rather, it is just as it seems: two mortal organizations have
allied against a third mortal organization. Please, be more careful not
to fall into the fallacy I mention at the end of my last post.

After this you mention that... oh wait, that's all you have to say in
response to my post; the rest of yours is filled with an emotional plea
for allies.

In that case I guess I'll just reiterate the point that the ideologies
of Good and Evil are seperate entities from those who belong to the
orders of them, and those who choose to ally themselves to these orders.
It is the supposed diametrical opposition of the ideologies of which I
wrote, and a corresponding possible solution.

If you choose to respond to this post, O Eminent One, I ask you to stay
within the bounds of the argument.

*Again here I'm just supposing that this is how you use this word.
Perhaps you mean some form of secret knowledge instead?
