Why do nobles like to accuse Allison of wrongdoing?  It seems she can't sneeze without it being some sort of conspiracy and have a Magistratum called.

Because she's usually up to something sneaky and underhanded.

I've really got to get to know this Allison. Brom and her could make great friends.

lol, is there another Magistratum being called? lulz.

Here's hoping Kabrinskia is thrown into spiritual and political chaos at the height of a war.

No they need to wait and do that until after Kabrinskia provokes the full-scale war, so that they can actually lose stuff.

Don't tell anyone, but I'm actually supposed to be leading a Magistratum right now, only I haven't gotten all the other Lights to respond yet.

I don't even know what's going on with the first Magistratum regarding Allison's alleged abuse of status/power. Now people are trying to accuse her of manipulating the elections by telling people how to vote...

I love how all the Allisonites are acting so outraged at all the accusations of corruption- as I recall it, such accusations against the Elders were Allison's specialty back in the day.

Then again she got away with it and the Elders are apparently unable to do the same, so she obviously did something right. I am definitely enjoying not being an Elder atm  ;D

The Elders didn't have a horde of followers to speak up on their behalf, since they were mostly quiet except when they made decisions.  Allison, however, has her entire country backing her up and has proven quite apt at whipping them into a fervour.

You know what it is: Allison just works harder than everyone else. It's not easy getting so many people willing to follow you. The other Elders who oppose Allison have certainly never bothered. You don't play the game, don't complain when you lose  :)

I have been trying to explain this to certain others. Fortunately Lysander doesn't much care. Allison winning the Regency might even be a good thing by his lights, it remains to be seen.

As controversial as Allison is I thank the stars she is IG or I would die of boredom. Most people want to defeat Allison and see her banished far away or dead. In the past I was like that to but realized the best way to beat Allison is to join Allison in her merry making, trouble making... Because when Allison destroys Dwilight one day in some epic war or trickery..  There will only be a few nobles left standing and I plan on being one of them. Friend or foe I am going to help Allison sew chaos and destruction all the while. Dwilight and BM is best played as a dramatic tragedy.

Most of you have very singular plots and paths that wind down roads of black or white... Glaumring wanders complex trails of grey.
