It is clear to me that you think I acted rashly in defence of my guild, and I understand your argument fine. I understood it before I even acted... but I ALSO had a duty to protect the rest of the guild from a Patron that I was convinced would bring us to ruin. Either way I lose, which is why Twilight is so good at what Twilight does.
Having accepted your opinion, I am giving the guild a chance to vote any man or god in they choose. That -IS- their right, as you say, and I am willing to step down if my rash actions have been more of a blemish than a blessing. But right and wrong are a bit subjective. Is it wrong to kill a man? Perhaps. Is it wrong to kill a man if he is killing you? Perhaps not. If I win, then I will consider my wrong actions to be the correct procedure at the moment I made them. If I lose, then wrong is wrong and a more stable man will take my place.

Penned by my hand on the 5th of Scarlatan, in the year 247 AF.
