A fine example of the jewel of the lands. A shining example to us all.
Its a shame the jewel in question must be talc for it has lost its
luster to me. I find it amazing that you could post such a thing when
your town elected the lands most infamous mass murderer to the office of
Trade Minister. Then allow yourselves to be ruled by a woman who
publicly demands a trial, but privately dictates such ludicrous demands
for how such a trial is to be done that only in her deranged fantasy
land of a delusional mind could such a trial ever exist. Dictating to a
soveriegn city how it should run its affairs while refusing to explain
the interworkings of her own town on a case with some similarities.
Then, when the town finally has enough of her actions that they follow
the clearly and might I add easily posted rules of the city, she lashes
out and has some "fun" before her enemy status became into being.
Charlotte and those who stand accused of the crimes of her actions have,
or actually I might add at this point HAD, options to appeal their
sentences. In Hashan you are guilty until proven innocent. Its right
there in the HELP HASHAN file should your brains not be able to wrap
around that concept. The dark city bent over backwards to avoid this
conflict. Offered much lower fines than necessary. Offered a trial
before charges were brought. But we were met with disrespect the entire
way. The fact that you put Charlotte in as Trade Minister was too much
for any town to accept. It was the final slap in the face.
Do not speak of our transgressions until you look at your own Shallam.
You have sown the seeds of this conflict. You put the maniacs into power
that pushed us to this point. Do not now go whining to the smaller towns
in a feeble attempt to rally them to your cause. Its time for Shallam to
put up a mirror and give itself a long look. You will see though you
call us dark, the shadow passes over your town in much darker detail.
