Sireph
********
During a recent surge, I was ready to rank with Sireph, the somewhat
notorious gnome warrior, when we were interrupted. Gannon and Varrell had
come to claim the gnome's life. As I followed him, I saw him fall time and
time again. Gannon. Tyredin. And more. It seemed as if everyone was
against this poor warrior, not only killing him, but taking all his items as
well. He fought as well as he could, but against such odds, who could win?
Through out the time I spoke with him, as we gained items for him again, and
he never seemed to lose courage. He as always itching to go back, and fight
again, confident that he would win. But it was not to be. In the end,
after one final battle against the odds, it became too much for the gnome to
stand. He had given everything he had to his fights, but it was not enough,
and he willingly departed Thera, never to return.
The Shadow Wars
*******************
Remmenon and Xanetes had a dispute shortly after Xanetes unluckily died
during a ranking mission. Remmenon swiped the gold from his corpse thinking
that he would not miss the measly amount. Outraged by this, Xanetes turned
on Remmenon in thirst for blood. The battle went on only until Remmenon
managed to steal Xanetes's sack of potions, leaving him fairly helpless.
Yagyu taken over by a thought of greed, attacked Xanetes after being
severely wounded by Remmenon, felling that it would be convenient to collect
the bounty on Xanetes's head. Of course the gods went into frenzy over such
quarrels. The told them to stop bickering and that Remmenon was making a
mockery out of the Dark Army. Remmeon defended himself, claiming to be
breathing new life into the Legion.
Remmenon claimed,
''I even blamed the Gods saying that if the Dark Army was to fall, it
would be the fault of the Gods themselves. ''
However, Remmenon would always do as the immortals wished. After a short
discussion the gods promoted Remmenon to Overseer so that there would
finally be leadership with the Legion once again.
Justice Cabal
****************
Therans comment on the Justice Cabal
Kashin : 'I think the Justice system needs to be redone completely. Murderers
given justice to other murderers is not justice at all.'
Groq : 'Vakarath and Jutazz are in my favor.'
Srestir : 'Ah yes, I don't like that murderers, Jutazz and Vakarath, are
prosecuting the murderers'
Aldinor : 'The Immortals favor them too much, I'd say.'
Xalos : 'Justice guards. Justice gives hope. Justice is order.'
Sutow : 'A well defined order requiring the extermination of those that do not
fit'
Grunky : 'Grunky think, Fist very strong and Nag talk very much'
Murder, one who kills another person out of anger or hatred. Avenger,
one who kills another person for revenge. Protector, one who kills another
person for the safe of saving those who cannot save themselves. The
citizens of Thera as a whole enjoy bloodshed, when it is not their own.
When it is their own blood on the ground, they tend to label the one who has
slain them as evil, as a murderer. Oddly those who should be labeled as
protectors or righteous avengers are the ones who often find themselves with
the title Murderer. And why? Because they seek the protection of the city
by going beyond the stone walls of Seringale. Perhaps some of the Justices
are a little more blood thirsty than is necessary, Perhaps they are
overzealous in their pursuits to keep peace within the city. Perhaps the
citizens and visitors of Seringale should take a closer look at the
protection they receive. Citizens of Seringale, consider the safety of your
streets. Are you afraid to walk outside when you are alone and you know
that there may be someone out there with a thirst for your blood? Are you
afraid when you hear the Iron Fist of the Law is about to protect you?
Be grateful that your protectors are so ambitious to take their job a step
further. To protect your lives from those who would enter the city and make
an attempt to take it.
Jutazz : 'There are simply criminals smart enough not to get caught. It is not
prevention, but rather punishing them where the Law itself is unable.'
