War on Trolls Bane

Thane Godfrey · Post by **Thane Godfrey** » Mon May 12, 2008 6:55 am

Thane yet again staggers in Troll's Bane, holding a rolled parchment under his right arm. He approaches the wall where numerous other parchments are pinned and strikes the one he holds right below the others and runs off, obviously completely oblivious of what the message reads.

I believe I shall join your game of bounties too. To whomever strikes Jorokar Sladrir's head on a spike and ornates Troll's Bane's town square with it shall receive a hefty reward of ten gold coins.

It shall be done sooner or later. I'd rather have mortals do it then the Mistress herself.

I am disappointed with you, Julius Rothman. I thought you were an honorable man. If you have any honor, you will end this war. Everyone should think twice before joining Julius side in this war, for it is not the side of justice. Has Jorokar done anything wrong by winning the election? No. Is it just to start a war just because he won an election to governor? No.

I hope that this war shall end soon, and that Jorokar shall keep his rightful position as a governor.

You don't understand it, hm?

It doesn't help to find a solution when you just offend the others.
What about talking like civilized people would do?

You don't win a war with honor or something. You win with courage. Courage to say something against the others. But do it civilized.

I am against this war. Do you realise how devastating a war can be? How many lives that are destroyed in every war? If you aid Julius in this war, then appearently you don't understand the hazards of war. However, I believe that most of you are wise and just enough to not participate in a war against Troll's Bane. If Julius is to win, Troll's Bane will never be the same again. The citizens will have to fear another war, and another war after that. We most unite against the war, tell him that: "No, we shall have no war!". I have decided to not participate in the bloodshed. I think, though, that fighting on the side of Troll's Bane and Jorokar is much better than fighting for Julius, since they are only defending themselves.

May your honor never break.

Dain, Wolf, do not think that by having left the Knighthood of Kallahorn, any
of you is freed from your wrongdoings and your heartless actions. We will
meet in war.

I wish to remind all that this is not a war aimed against the Knighthood of
Kallahorn. Rather, this is a fight against the already mentioned outlaws of
this island, but all who follow them are as guilty.

Sounds kind of personal, hun. It is nice to be wanted though.

abcfantasy · Post by **abcfantasy** » Mon May 12, 2008 8:45 pm

Yes, hun, it is personal. People of Gobaith, I will admit this. I have a personal distaste against a few people who have assaulted many good people. I have a personal hatred towards those who obstruct peace and tranquility. I have a personal grudge against those who wish bloodshed upon the good people, those who wish nothing but power and richess, those who wish other's lives for their simple fun. I am so biased, I never favour the outlaws of this island.

~ Your hun, Jorokar Sladrir.

A young homeless looking lad scuttles up to the board. He looks both ways before attaching a parchment and running away with the sound of looses coins in his pocket..The writing upon this parchment appears some what awkward and scribbled...

I'll be sure to sharpen my sword for you Jorokar. I'll have your head.

Catch me if ye can bastards.

This is the second time I've been banned from Trollsbane forever. The first time was for taking part in a peaceful demonstration, and the governor that did that was beaten to death. It was bloody, and none too pleasant.

THIS time, I have been banned from Trollsbane, why? Let's recap on what happened. I've set this out nicely so everyone can concentrate on each point.

First of all, a few days ago Julius and Wolf were hunted down OUTSIDE Trollsbane and beaten. It was a completely unprovoked attack. Also, an unarmed woman was attacked, simply for "Being there" which I believe was the reason given.

Wolf was jailed, strangely. Apparently being beaten half to death and deprived of proper medical care and seemingly basic commodities such as food, water and sleep while in jail is a very severe offense these days.

Now, nobody wishes to be kept in this condition for long, do they? So Dain, Julius and I went PEACEFULLY to get him released. Jorokar, however was the first to draw a blade, as well as Chester, saying "I will not release the man who has done nothing wrong, I will cut you down instead!"

We all know those stories about how the righteous with good intentions always win, and perhaps luck was on our side this time, against yet another cruel and sadistic governor, seeking only to line his own pocket and to abuse his position by beating up those who he has already done wrong to in the past, while he claims that these "agressors" have done terrible things.

So, while we were stabbed with poison blades and daggers, in cheap shots to the back while Chester and Jorokar sit on their thrones telling you all how bad we are, just remember that this is a two sided argument, and perhaps they aren't telling you the full truth. None of you trust me anyway, so I have nothing to lose by posting this. I truly did try and change, but I was forced to lay a hand on a sword yet again to protect my own life. I still belive there is both a way forward and a way back. It's up to you lot which one I can choose.

abcfantasy · Post by **abcfantasy** » Mon May 12, 2008 9:06 pm

Deuce, I am honored that you sharpen your blade for the very occassion.

Dominic, you are full of lies. Let me address them here:

- Julius and Wolf were hunted outside the walls of Troll's Bane, yet still within the territory. But even so, it does not matter at all, outlaws are outlaws anywhere. It was a completely unprovoked attack. But so was their ambush. Do you outlaws expect to act and then be left in peace? That's purely laughable.

- Wolf was jailed. Strangely? Are you jesting? He has aided in the ambush, in fact the first one to strike on Ayla without having drawn our weapons ourselves. He was an already wanted criminal before that too. I am sorry if I jail criminals and outlaws, again, I must be so biased.

- He was beaten half to death and dreprived of proper medical care and food water and sleep? Thank you for, in these dull times, giving me some moments to laugh. He was beaten in that state due to his persistence, 3 TIMES! He was stubborn, and I was kind not to have ended his life. Furthermore, both Joxia and Pellandria have aided him and healed his wounds with utmost care, and well cooked food was brought to him. I think his life there was even more comfortable then ever.

- "Nobody wishes to be kept in this condition for long." This statement does not hold anymore, seeing the previous words.

- You went peacefully to get him released? I'm beginning to hurt my lungs with this laughter. Do you call this peaceful: "You either release him, or you die here and we release him." Well, I'm sure that'll make many laugh now.

- "I will not release the man who has done nothing wrong." This statement does not hold anymore, the previous words speak for themselves.

- "Seeking only to line his own pocket and to abuse his position". Again, yes, I abuse my position. I abuse it by ordering people to hunt the criminals, villains and outlaws. Such abuse are my actions.

- "I truly did try and chance, but I was forced to lay a hand on a sword yet again to protect my own life." How sad, really sad. I had the honest and deep intentions to let you, Dain and others to freely roam Troll's Bane without being hunted. Think of that. But the two ambushes ruined it. Had you stayed away from the second ambush, you'd still have that precious and kind chance. But now you ruined it.

"The abuser of power and the disciminator of outlaws and villains."

Its no use. Jorokar is as crazy as julius. Have your revenge then fool. We'll meet on the battlefield, seeing as you refuse to let me walk free.

It seems some of their members have smartened up, and are distancing themselves from the real problem. Perhaps this should be handled quietly with those who choose that path, rather than discouraging it?

ATTENTION

Dominic Fisher is no more an enemy of ours, no more wanted. He is permitted to roam Troll's Bane freely, and will NOT be hunted or bothered. He will NOT cause any trouble provided no one causes him trouble in the first place.

Seregon is also no enemy of Troll's Bane. He is to be let undisturbed and unhunted. Like Dominic, he will cause no harm as long as we do not cause him harm in the first place.

Let me not hear of any who hunts any of these two for their past actions.

Evan Ross · Post by **Evan Ross** » Mon May 12, 2008 11:12 pm

I well not (unless defending myself) engage the following five people in combat:

* Dain Laiden
* The elf who calls himself "Wolf"
* Starling
* Dominic Fisher
* Seregon

If you need my blade for anyone Jorokar, I'll be there

~Evan Ross~

abcfantasy · Post by **abcfantasy** » Mon May 12, 2008 11:18 pm

Starling, had my heart not been faithful to one particular person, I would have answered yes.

But anyhow, Starling is not to be hunted, unless she stands and fights side by side with our enemies.

Dain Laiden, "Wolf", Deuce and Julius Rothman, and those who follow them remain the enemies of Troll's Bane and in war we shall meet them.

Jorokar, I refuse to meet you in this absurd "war". I will do my best to not hard the fine people of Gobaith when they strike me. I wonder what innocent people I have harmed. Unless you count those from over seven years ago. The only fight I have been in was with Yourself, Fooser and Chester. As far as Fooser and Chester are concerned, I would gladly aid them in any reasonable ailment they are ever in. You personally dislike me for reasons stemming back years before. I want no part in this at all. Nor will I head any demands for another fight to the death with you. Last time I met you for one of these fights, I was surrounded by many men and women who wanted me dead. Also, think of your wife. You are a selfish man. I cannot speak for others but I will see it your wife is not harmed as best I can. If you wish to speak words of peace, I am normally available.

Formally speaking:

Julius wrote:

The Knighthood of Kallahorn officially declares war on the Town of Trolls Bane and there allies.

Dain wrote:

I hereby leave Kallahorn but not my claims to the land.

Logically concluding, Dain Laiden no longer is following Julius's agenda to take over the city. He seems to be no threat to the city until proven otherwise, and it seems like the remaining conflict is between him and Jorokar.

The Standing Army disengages Dain Laiden.

Also by the written confirmation, Standing Army disengages Dominic Fisher.

Julius · Post by **Julius** » Tue May 13, 2008 5:00 am

The Knighthood of Kallahorn officially draws from battle. We have no wish to fight this little war anymore, Sir Jorokar. We offer peace for the very last time and I expect for you to hand it to us.

Thank you,
Julius Rothman
Knight of Kallahorn

Exellent, just turn yourself over and relinquish ownership in Kallahorn, I'm sure then something can be worked out.

Even in surrender, he is arrogant. How can we believe him?

Truth is, his 'Order' is falling apart, he doesn't know what to do except live to fight us another day (Maybe in the dark, one by one?). I don't trust their intentions.

Goldburg will follow TrollsBane in this matter, but this 'nonsense' about leaving the Knighthood "But keeping claim on the land" is just stupid. That land "IS" Kallahorn. If they are tied to that land, then they do not intend to truly leave their precious 'knighthood'.

In our first declaration, we stated the 'conditions' of peace.
1) Negotiate Peace with TrollsBane, in which they tricked us the first time. Dare we trust them again?

2) Compensate the 'victims' of their actions. In their posts, I see no 'humility', Remorse nor intent to even apologize for their actions.

I strongly recommend that TrollsBane continue the 'hunt' for Julius, Dain and Dominic despite their 'words'. These men are dangerous and nothing good can come from allowing them to be 'free' and yet 'keep their claim on Kallahorn'. That's just insane.

I suggest that if any of you do continue your attack on Julius and the others that you leave the majority of Kallahorn allone. Faladorn offered a surrender well before Julius did as Julius had abandoned them for a brief period of time. If anything Chester, leave the members of the knighthood alone and just take down the knight.

Julius · Post by **Julius** » Tue May 13, 2008 5:17 am

Faladron has no leadership over Kallahorn. Therefore, his declaration of peace means nothing. Mine does. We wish peace, Dantagon. Please grant it to us.

I seem to remember that you 'wanted no part' of this War. You turned your back on your 'Grandmaster' when he needed you. Ayla did too. I follow him, not either of you two "Knights".

The War continues until Governor "Jorokar" says otherwise. It is a war between TrollsBane and the "Knighthood" (which is really Julius Rothman's Guild and always will be). Goldburg is only an ally here.

I am healing well, and should be in the thick of battle again very soon. I recommend you also do what you can to bring this nonsense to a quick end "knight of Gobaith" or have you left that behind too?

Respectfully,
~Chester Copperpot, Chief of Goldburg

Dantagon Marescot · Post by **Dantagon Marescot** » Tue May 13, 2008 5:35 am

I haven't turned my back on Jorokar, but I refuse to fight in a senceless war. That is the beauty of the knighthood. We can disagree. Just because I disagree with him does not mean I have turned by back on him.

All I state is that I suggest that those of Kallahorn be left alone unless they are on the list that Jorokar mentioned. As Jorokar told me today, he is not at war with Kallahorn, but the members he has listed. Perhaps you should check that list again for he is rather unhappy that people think he is at war with Kallahorn itself.
