That's because Mendicant has some weird daddy issues about commitment and alliances and stuff. And it isn't even like "Oh, I don't like alliances so I won't be in one." It's a "Oh, I don't like alliances so I won't be in one, and if you are in one I'll be pissed at you about it." He's like that friend who is always pissy at you when you're in a relationship and he isn't.
Can we please go to "Hatred" and then start spreading nasty rumors like this IC? If they're gonna kill us, we might as well go down flaming...
