Hey, it's a great source of conflict, is it not?

You are absolutely correct, it's a wonderful source of conflict. Just like when Scar murdered Mufasa and exiled Simba.

Vellos should start singing Hakuna Matata in his prison cells. I would worship him OOC for that and yes I mean I would accept a bm character as my real life god.

I like to think more of Hireshmont as Richard the Lionheart imprisoned in Austria than the bird-messenger of the king. Or maybe as the Czar right after the Russian Revolution. Let's go with Richard the Lionheart.

I think it would have been better fitted on Beluaterra but, I'm not the founder, so... yeah, Dwilight it is.

I will always see him as Mufasa.

It's my old stomping grounds with my old family. I'll never forget the battle of Heen, when we waged a guerrilla war against the undead who were destroying our city. We lasted long enough for allies to arrive, even though every single member of our realm council and military command was wounded. The survivors agreed on hit and run tactics, it stalled the undead just long enough for us to survive. That was a real proud moment for me as a player. My boy might have to flee to Beluaterra, I don't think he has a place in Dwilight anymore.

In a realm of 27, I wonder how many it takes? I know he lost a prestige point at the last turn for it. I wonder how many to oust him, though?

Neji got like 7 protests in a realm of 35 and that didn't oust him. Cost him a couple prestige points though.

I have heard its like a third need to protests. Whether that's all in one turn or in a day, I don't know.

The formula's not that simple.

So I'll ask a second time, Anaris, and hopefully this time I won't be ignored.

Oh, yeah, we totally need more nobles who torture, maim, and kill other human beings for fun, then take trophies and make careful and loving records of it to brag about later.

 ??? :P

How did you know we kept loving records and trophies?

Sorry, I must have missed the first one.

I didn't know; it just seemed like the kind of depraved thing that such people would do. Now, though, I know ;D
