Some call Mhaldor weak, some call us cowards. However, a particularly
amusing statement made by Carmell was made known. No shrines will be
raised outside of Shallam until Carmell has spoken to your Patrons? I
find that truly hilarious.
For so long, Mhaldor was called weak for not having any shrines outside
of our city. We were labelled cowards for our strategic defense. And now
you, Shallam, have no shrines outside of your city, and you won't be
raising any more until you've had word from your Patron?
I do not speak for Father Herenicus, but I would decline your invitation
if it were sent to me. Who would want to join a city with such ironic
hypocrisy? There is no propaganda and blind hatred in my words, there
are merely facts that I have observed from the actions and words of your
citizens. We drop every single Shallamese shrine outside of your walls,
and we have yet to have a retaliation from you. Our shrines are standing
strong, our city guards are left unharmed. Where is the battle of Good
vs Evil?
Alas, there is no battle. There is only Mhaldor, standing back in
amusement as the 'glorious' Jewel tries to unjam its foot from its
mouth.
