Sanguis Astroism

[Daycryn]

Oh so the Crusade is bigger now.

Cool. Well, Rabisu's on board.
That will change everything!

[Zakilevo]

We need more dormant characters to wake up!

[Solari]

Yes... YEEEESSS... The Austere is eclipsed by the Auspicious and the Maddening, and all heaven and earth are out of harmony. The only thing that can restore balance is blood. Rivers of blood.

And mountains of corpses!

And...something else

Rabisu's recent rant, in summary:

If you're not on board with the Crusade, you're trying to destroy the Church (and should be destroyed).

Also, people in SA don't even know there's a Crusade on? OMG people, it's called propaganda. Try it, use it, love it.

Rabisu's rant: "How dare you guys not be at war with the realm I refused to declare a crusade against!"

[Daycryn]

One of the reasons he was hesitant to call a Crusade was because once called it can't exactly be un-called (at least not without shame or difficulty). That once called, its a sacred duty for the faithful to follow, regardless of their opinions.

Which is also why he's so fervently in favor of it now.

It's not like he's only going to support a crusade if he's the one to call it.

Of course, but the refusal to call a crusade that so many people wanted, followed by a crusade called by his successor that nobody wanted, helped broaden the rift that now tears in SA.

Less Rabisu's fault, more Medugnatos. They should have just followed tradition and gone with Rabisu's luminary. None of this would have ever happened.

I'd be inclined to agree. Refusing that crusade made more sense than declaring the Terran one. Now it's just a crusade on a crusade, against crusaders, and that really doesn't seem to have any sort of pull on anyone who wouldn't have responded for secular reasons (like being attacked themselves).

And now Alaster wants to throw it all away...

Goes to show, doesn't it?

Creating a theocracy in Terran was the first mistake. Putting a Kabrinski in power was the fatal mistake.

If it weren't for the priest protection, Jonsu wouldn't even be in SA: let alone a Luminary. She has too many enemies and too few allies, and is a liability to everyone around her.

She's pretty useful here in Luria.
