Clesa asks,
Are you mad mad? Or insane mad? You don't really sound like either in your worldly post. I'm very skeptical about you and any newcomers. I like to read my newspaper expecting good and finding good. I won't be too happy if I find something otherwise! I'm neither dear lady, it's just that people have over the years come to their own conclusion, believing I am mad, as in, crazy mad. But they just dont understand the complexity of the Gnome psyche, so it's to be expected. As for you being skeptical of me, and other newcomers, well, it's to be expected. And it's fine by me that you're skeptical, because it doesn't affect me directly, so be as skeptical as you wish! But if you're skeptical of me once I've conquered Thera, it'll be considered treason, and it'll be to the coal mines with you. And as for expecting and finding good, we do our best to keep our readers as a whole happy and satisfied with the content of the "Theran Mystique" But, you're just one reader out of the whole, and as such, not the whole. Meaning we can afford to ignore you, but we'll try not to. Even though we're vague on what you expect good to be. So we'll guess you think good is Gnome propaganda, because it is good! Wholesome and good! Gnomes are your friends, gnomes are your superior intellects, but don't hold it over you. And as such, you should obey Gnomes. GNOMES! Margoy asks, Dabilor, I am a druid and thus have to deal with animals on a regular basis. I recently had a squirrel with similar ambitions as you ruling the world and such of course they are nonsense, but he won't be swayed. How would one dissuade delusional small creatures from such courses? Well Margoy, it's quite possible that squirrel was one of the special elite squirrels I trained to be a soldier in my army to conquer Thera, and if he is, you best be wary around him, for he's quite thoroughly trained in deadly fighting techniques, and will bite your eyes out when you least expect it. You see, a while back after realizing gnomes wouldn't be effective shock troopers, I realized squirrels are small, nimble, and have a vicious streak, and are expendable, so I captured, bred, and raised a small army of them. After a few months, they'd been trained so well, they escaped and disappeared. Ungrateful vermin. But so, instead of trying to dissuade them from taking over the world, encourage them to come serve their mentor in his quest for world domination. And sleep face first while around him, so you wake with your eyes intact. Alingar asks, If you plan to eventually rule Thera, why not join the forces of the Abyssals and Fells, and serve under us? It's quite possible you'd be left as overseer of Thera after we're finished conquering it, and we could always use a cunning mind to aid us in our mission. I've been expecting this question for a while now, surprised it took this long to receive. And why I won't serve with the invaders is simple, they lack skill, they lack patience, and they lack intelligence, even with my superior mind running the show, I'd still need soldiers who were intelligent enough to comprehend my orders, and that just won't happen with your bunch. Besides, I accomplish what's difficult, I don't perform miracles when something is impossible. If you ask me, you went wrong trying to use these "Fell" as footsoldiers. I'd use them to dig latrines, and leave the real fighting to my elite-trained squirrels. If I could somehow regain control over them that is.... But I always have my elite-trained beavers as backup. And it's contingency plans that win the day, not stupidity. |
