Question for Lyrenzia Foundation

Drathe · Post by **Drathe** » Tue Jul 29, 2003 2:37 pm

You are the towns self elected goverining and protecting body. Yet where are you now? Hiding in the dark leaveing the peoploe to deal with this situation alone.

Dralok is a registered citizen and as such should he not be subjected to the same rules and regualtions of the other towns people. HE has broken town rules whilst in town and has threatend the town directly. Wether he realy does have the power he says he has or he is bluffing with his ability to summon creatures. He should be trialed, better still skip that, he should be put in the prisson and the walls seald with magika.

You as an organisation have at you disposal, skilled mages, knights, healers, scholars and the people to equip and support them.
use your kights and mages to capture this man, your scholars to document, read and find out more about his power and what is going on around us, and again your mages to seal the pirssion with magiks, just as the mana well was done in the old castle. Yet what have you done in all this... give us a prety speach.

Do something more usleful than build us badly designed walls, that leave secret passages open right into the heart of our town. Do your self elected jobs.

Dear Drathe,

if we do something, people complain ...
if we don't do something, people complain ...
if we are gone, people complain ...
if we exist, people complain ...
if we announce all we do, people complain ...
if we work in the silence, people complain ...
what ever we do, people complain ...
I'm tyred of this complains, that we should do this, shouldn't do this, should do this in that way, not in this ... and each single person said something different.
It was Lyrenzia, which startet the meeting to find out, where the drought came from. It was Dyluck and Damien, two councillors, which made good suggestion on the boards to handle with this case.
Our work is still in progress and we will act, when we want, not when a so called "Darlok" meant, that we should do something.

Your words are true Aragon. People, myself included complain about Lyrensia. But it seems we the towns people are running out of time, the town is running out of time, the land is running out of time, like grains of sand in a glass.
Yet the foundation has not shown, save for a simple town meeting and a speech much to give the people hope, false or not.

These are again, testing times and the heat of the days only goes to make tempers flare like sparks to lantern oil.

To the honorable Lyrenzia Foundation Council,

I have remained silent in many cases that I would argue with Lyrenzia. I have time and time again disagreed and complained about how the organization runs itself and how the people of the town are not getting proper justice, sometimes amongst friends, sometimes publicly. I admit this to the fullest of my knowledge and being. I have done this from the start of the organization, not allowing my mind to process the possible hope that Lyrenzia could give us. I did not let myself have faith.

Now the time has come that we need Lyrenzia. It is unfortunate that Lyrenzia is seemingly unwilling or reluctant to help, due to our own past transgressions and complaints. I know now the error of my ways and know that it is not possible, by us, to stop this madman or likely any other evil that may cross our paths in the future. I have always thought that the Lyrenzia Foundation and a court system was not needed in this land, as the concept of giving someone back exactly what they give to others has always seemed more just, but I realize now that in many cases, it is better to have Lyrenzia. Though, I am still skeptical, I am willing to have faith now.

I, with many towns people I am sure, realize that you will perform the task you started on your own terms, but I fear this will not be enough. Even as I write this letter, the sands within the town are spreading like a plague of locusts or some vile disease. Our time is running short and Darlok has us in a non-negociable state where we must act quickly or be slain. As Drathe said before, you as an organization have at your disposal skilled mages, knights, healers, scholars and the people to equip them. Please do your service as the governing and protecting body of this town.

At this point in my letter, I feel there is little left to say. I apologize again for my former lack of trust and I guarantee that I will, from this day forth, put faith into the governing body of Troll's Bane. If you need my help, then by all means ask. I will do what I can to assist.

Yours sincerely,

We're discussing what actions should be taken against Darlok, fighting him isn't an option at this point in time.

Dyluck · Post by **Dyluck** » Tue Jul 29, 2003 9:35 pm

You are so sure that this drought is the work of Darlok, even though it began long before he appeared and made his demands? Have you seen him transform the land right before your eyes or any other proof? Otherwise I don't see what law has been violated, and if so you may have noticed by now that nobody has even asked for a trial yet. Then of course there's the question as to how effective containment will be especially when he has monsters that can dig through the ground, assuming capture is possible.

What makes you say that we aren't trying to find out about his abilities or what is happening any more than you or another person?
I would be the last person in the world to say that Darlok can't be defeated, but the fact is that locating him and being able to send a sufficient force before he moves is a bit difficult. However, we do know the location of the cave which is supposedly his home.

So if you want to help, here's something you might consider doing.
Gather a group of people tomorrow or even today, and march to Darlok's cave and look for clues if he's not inside. If nothing useful can be found, burn and destroy what you find there and see if it will affect him.

Drathe · Post by **Drathe** » Tue Jul 29, 2003 9:45 pm

Summoning monsters in town, tho there maybe no written law directly addressing this, is still a form of magika and thus is a criminal offence. Casting (summoning) repeatedly in town with intent to kill with out discrimination, men and women most of which were innocent by-standers.

Is that not a Lyrenzia law broken? Even if Darlok states that he summoned the creatures (around 6-7 rotworm) in self defence against the the two people that may have provoced him, once the creatures are summoned he has limited control on who they attack, innocent people or aressors. Now as you can inagin 6 rot worms let loose in a group of around nine to ten people could have lead to a tragady. The bodys of women torn and bloodied on the floor, cropses of men half mauld.

Lucky thanks to a fast bow and swif quiver of arrows this was nay the case. but I am sure this is ground enough for a trail to begin for the man. There are many witnesses who saw the goings on.

Sess'sth · Post by **Sess'sth** » Tue Jul 29, 2003 10:01 pm

Another attack today. Many rotwormses... At leasts 30. Many peoples died, many peoples injured...

Dyluck · Post by **Dyluck** » Tue Jul 29, 2003 11:01 pm

Fair enough, but do you think he can be captured and contained conventionally?

Anyways, my suggestion is still the same, to gather a group and investigate his home again.
Additionally I suggest you try and steal anything useful you can find there and destroy what you can't take.
You may have heard of an altar that he possess. That may be something key to steal or destroy.

I say if you dont help and keep whinning about us whinning you should sattle up your horse and leave town. So I think you should do something instead of just sitting around in your castle eating,drinking and having good time when people getting hurt,killed and die of thirst because of heat spell Darlok must be stopped but...how?

Dyluck · Post by **Dyluck** » Tue Jul 29, 2003 11:19 pm

Open your eyes and you'll see that there are members of Lyrenzia all over the town. We are all individual citizens just like you.
How do you know what we have done and haven't done?
I've never seen you do anything before but do you see me complaining about you and making assumptions about your daily routine
Just what have you done more than everyone else that gives you the right to point fingers?

~Dyluck~

Fooser · Post by **Fooser** » Tue Jul 29, 2003 11:39 pm

Oh geez, I actually wasnt going to complain about this, but I decided to now. You want to know what your "citizens" HAVE DONE? Well lets see, three of them came up to me convinced that I was aligned with an "evil master", who or what they were talking about was a complete mystery to me, then they claimed that I lit a nearby fire, that I did see. So I went into the shop where Drathe was and openly asked him if I had lit the fire, he said no, and I went back out to where they were, and ignored me when I presented proof I did not do such things, then went back to whispering to themselves, I found it frustrating and then comical a while later, Vigilantes live in the streets still in the age of Lyrenzia

Elaralith · Post by **Elaralith** » Wed Jul 30, 2003 3:18 am

I must agree with Drathe. Lyrenzia the self appointed governing body who claims to be protectorate of the town has done nothing since its start to protect the town besides erecting prison walls around the town, holding senseless trials that hold little justice, and sending various people they don't like to jail...

Now there is a REAL problem and it is seen Lyrenzia can't or won't do anything to solve it. Darlok by your own laws should be the worst criminal this town has seen yet. YET he is a registered citizen on your list. YET he still walks the streets. YET he has not been jailed or even sent to court.

I make my views plain. Lyrenzia's little political maneuverings are well and fine in times of peace to bring themselves more power. But when real trouble hits it is not they who do anything to help but the ones they have jailed in the past as "criminals".

Albernon · Post by **Albernon** » Wed Jul 30, 2003 3:28 am

Elaralith, you're just sour because you've been sentence to prison for your heinious crimes before.

Only someone really stupid or trying to make the situation worse would try and take a shot at Lyrenzia try How stupid are you that you blame Lyrenzia for not being able to imprison somebody who could drain the energy of the land? Self-proclaimed prietess of Elara, I ask why haven't you asked your goddess who has granted you so much power to give you what you need to solve our problems? It's so easy to complain about other people for not solving problems that you can't solve yourself, isn't it?

Lyrenzia isn't just the main council, you and I are part of it too, so stop complaining about yourself, because I don't see you getting rid of Darlok either.

Elaralith · Post by **Elaralith** » Wed Jul 30, 2003 3:31 am

You insult be by saying that I am a part of Lyrenzia. I would never be a part of a petty organization that does nothing except harrass the people it "rules" in times of peace and let the people it "rules" rot in the times of troubles.

Those that serve Elara do not seek power. What delusions that you may have concerning the matter I wish to put away now. Elara grants not power and it is not for her priestesses to give power out. If it is Elara's wisdom that you need I suggest you go into a peaceful location and pray; not come here ranting at me and blasphemizing Elara's name.

Albernon · Post by **Albernon** » Wed Jul 30, 2003 4:10 am

So in other words, you who preach the words of Elara, are also powerless to use the supposedly wisdom to solve our problem. Your supposed wisdom has only brought you to the delusional conclusion that badmouthing Lyrenzia at this time will make our situation better. What a joke! Begone you witch! You are no priestess but only a witch who seeks to assert her self status through the name of the gods!

Tamurom · Post by **Tamurom** » Wed Jul 30, 2003 4:52 am

Hmm, so if Lyrenzia did have or is making a plan, how stupid would it be to post it here for the public so Darlok and his arse kissers can see it?

Bloodhearte · Post by **Bloodhearte** » Wed Jul 30, 2003 6:06 am

For once, Tamurom, you are correct.

You have justified your own extinction, citizens of Trollsbane.

Do not, I repeat, do not in any way desecrate this shrine. Nobody knows what power this place is dedecated to, but one thing is sure. Harming the shrine might make this power angry, and an angry God or spirit would be even worse then Darlok could ever be.
The possibility of simply cutting Darlok off the source of his powers has been discussed, but it has been decided that there is no way to acieve this without risking that another menace, as big or even bigger then the current, might take his place.
As you all noticed, this is avery special situation, and because of this the usual ways to deal with it do not work. Trialing and imprisoning Darlok would not stop him from using his powers to drain the lands, and he can get the blessings of the holy shrines as well as everyone of us when someone raises arms against him.
I would gratefully fight this madman if I could, but right now the best way to deal with this situation is to give him his castle and use the time to find a way to prevent him of using his powers to threaten the town again.

Albernon,
Wisdom isn't what you think is and wisdom is definitely not ranting on the town boards and bickering.

Adano,
You call the castle a shrine? I don't think it is a shrine. But even shrines can be destroyed as afterall they are but mortal creations created in the mortal realms to be a place for the divine powers.

veralion · Post by **veralion** » Wed Jul 30, 2003 8:26 pm

Good idea... Make stronghold for insain man with great power. Me must say Lyrenza should act faster. Me not like Lyrenza, but me think if you supposed to help citizens, you do something faster. Obvious he break laws, so do something! Peoples feel insecure and scared and Darlok strongarm weaker peoples to works for him. Me no give in to labor for him. Town go to waste all me cares, nothing else happen now anyway...

Faramier · Post by **Faramier** » Wed Jul 30, 2003 8:31 pm

Lyrenzia acts all the time, its just that it thinks things out and chooses the best possible course of action rather than blindly charging in with no clue of whats going on, the sole success of lyrenzia is its ability to analyze sitouations and find the best way to deal with it. Have you ever thought that this may take some time or are you too preoccupied rushing in and making an even bigger mess for yourself. Just because you dont see lyrenzia, doing something dosent mean they arnt doing something.

Kordaluc Xinq · Post by **Kordaluc Xinq** » Wed Jul 30, 2003 9:41 pm

I say that Lyrenzia's members should be hunted down and beheadded. They have done nothing but bad for the once great city of Trollsbane. They SELF PROCLAIMED there laws on us, giving us no ability to give our say. Then they enforce rules which we never asked for in the first place.

Lyrenzia is a cult and no more. Less infact. They have no pride. They bow down and beg for mercy from a evil such as Darlok. Do you really want people like that "protecting" Trollsbane?

Again I say, let us kill the Lyrenzia nusance!

DOWN WITH LYRENZIA!

Faramier · Post by **Faramier** » Wed Jul 30, 2003 9:42 pm

since when has lyrenzia bowed down before darlok, the people that work for him do so out of thier own choice and thier kind will to you.

Kordaluc Xinq, you want Lyrenzia to be destroyed and yet you don't want to help the side that Lyrenzia is worried about fighting? You sound like a coward, all talk and no action.

You dare call me a coward?! I should slay you where you stand.

I do put action into play, but I am quite sorry if I can not be roaming the streets every waking moiment doing my bidding. Even for me, taking on a now, disgusting large clut, is no walk to the tavern.
