The denizens of Achaea,

I am informing all that I shall be taking a short journey. During this time, I will be attempting to purge weakness of myself, in all its forms. This will include methods such as self-torture and elimination of conscience. I am also attempting to control my incessant shouting and my constant babble of nonsense, and am bringing with me several tomes of Achaean history to further my knowledge. When I return, I shall be a different man, so dont expect the same responses from me. I don't know exactly when I shall return, but it should be soon. May our mortal race continue to thrive through the decrease of our weak populus.

Strife, Eliminator of Mortal Flaws
