First I've ever heard of that. Right now the best people seem to be able to come up with is that off hand comment Mendicant made about religion and a generalized "But they're Saxons!" sentiment. Lysander's holding out for a better rationale than that, but he won't stand against the tide if the Church actually decides to get moving.

Isn't there the whole "League of Free Nations" thing as well? And the fact that Mendicant apparently told Allison he would never tolerate the construction of an SA temple in his lands?

There is plenty of evidence but no one had yet brought it into one coherent case.

@geronus: I think this was after Rowan had already died. Maybe it was while Brance was contacting all the rulers to say hi, or something.

Yes, but no one realizes that IC. Mendicant has not proclaimed the fact that he considers Aurvandil to be part of the League. The going assumption in the Church is that with Madina gone, the League has been exterminated.

So it would seem.

Actually, I believed the 'moot received a letter indicating otherwise.

Agreed. Not a topic that's on topic.  :P

We did. And I sent it to the Elders of SA.

And they seem to have forgotten it.

Hey, we're busy people.

No, but it does have a magical lamp that hovers over it, continually...illuminating it.

For those unfamiliar with the term, "Illuminated", when describing a written work, means that it has illuminations in the text. Those are the pictures and/or big fancy letters that you see in medieval books and manuscripts.

For some pretty reference material, see Wikipedia.
