Dalamar killed me today, while I was inside of Shallam. It took him about ten minutes, even though I can still move through Minia and he is nearly 5,000% my might. His justification for this was that I "teamed" him. Basically, he walked into a room that consisted of about four citizens of Shallam, and attacked me. I webbed him, and my friends defended me, and he fled and started screaming about us teaming him. He then made hit and run attacks on myself and Dalagorn, over and over again, until he finally managed to kill us both.
The teaming excuse however was only his excuse for the second half of the day. He initially had an even weaker one, which he replaced with his teaming excuse after he attacked me. I was chasing an Infernal named Magus, who had been trying to provoke myself and Penn all day in Shallam. He repeatedly tried to get us to kill him inside of the city, and did things like move Orphans out of Shallam, and take them to Ashtan to be killed there.
He lied repeatedly (Magus did), and I won't bother to tell you all of them. He was shouting about how we weren't even trying to convert him just get rid of him (not true, when he was completely new I tried to get him to join the Paladins), and said that he never took any of the Orphans into Ashtan, when a neutral Druid was among the people who saw him doing it... etc.
Magus told me to come and kill him in Shastaan, he had been saying all day long "Kill me I will do nothing". Penn and I were fed up with his bull, spamming Shallam with his yelling and forcing people to follow him to make sure he behaved, and so the two of us went there to, yes, team him. He was quite literally asking for it.
When I got there both Fate and Reznor attacked me, and I was delivered back to Shallam. Following this, Magus then told me, "Come face me one on one at NoT." "Are you alone?" I asked. He said he was. When I got there, he attacked me along with Dalamar and Whispre, but I managed to flee back to Shallam.
Using this Magus incident as an excuse (I finally got the bugger later on and practically knocked his head off), Dalamar began his initial attack that eventually led to my death. It was ridiculously unfair of course, but then it is just like the people of Ashtan to twist things. The Church they constintly speak of, lying, cheating, betraying, exists only in their propoganda. As a member of the Church I can tell you all that 95% of what they say is either untrue or twisted.
There is a reason for this: Both sides know that the Church is right. The Church rarely even bothers to defend itself from the constant "Church Hypocrisy" posts that are constantly made here, because to us it is almost too absurd to even adress. People like Dalamar, who was kicked out of Shallam for being a thug and breaking international law, constantly say things to try to make the Church look bad, for fear of people actually looking at the situation and realizing what is really going on.
Dalamar is a cannibal, child killer, and pact maker with demons whose admitted goal is to devour us all. Kay and Cooper are Knights of Aurora, the Goddess of Light, and Paladins of Shallam, the city of Justice. Miramar, the Goddess who embodies Justice, has her guild right outside of our city. That right there proves just how well-intended if nothing else that we are.
And so the Knights killed the monster. And as for Cooper being accussed of killing his sister, I know nothing of that situation but if it did happen I am sure that Dalamar left something out. Perhaps his adopted sister attacked him in Dalamar's defense, and Cooper chose his Goddess over her? You can't blame him for that.
