headline = Editorial: Queen Evangeline, Bold Faced Liar, Ignorant, or Crazy?| | |||
author = Alise Athins| | |||
article = A few days ago after the secession of Westmoor, Chancellor Mikhail posted to the realm the discussion that were going on in the rulers of the East Continent channel. These basically consist of Queen Evangeline saying that her realm was innocent, and only wanted peace, ect... Myself personally found them all to be quite humourous as she makes quite a foll out of herself. It brought up the question in my mind; "What is wrong with her? Does she actually believe the filth she is spewing? Which would mean she is either quite ignorant, or just plain loony. Or, does she know she is just feeding everyone a bunch of garbage, making her a liar. I'll let you decide for yourself. | |||
<br> | |||
Of course like any good Fontanese I like to discuss and argue. Since I am not part of the ruler's channel, I could not get my argument fix there, so I chose to try a private one with the Queen herself. When I got no reply I chose to well, give my rebuttals to her arguments here. The following is such: | |||
<br><br><br> | |||
''What bothers me is Chancellor Mikhail's absurd notion of denying responsibility for the situation his realm is in. Yesterday I announced that Westmoor would offer peace to every realm, today Mikhail declares war and then tries to claim innocence in the war that will now happen between Fontan and Westmoor.''<br><br> | |||
How absurd is this? Westmoor wanted peace with Fontan, but wait, the whole Perdanese war against us was so that Westmoor could be created. We were already at war with Westmoor when it was created. You would have to be delusional to see otherwise. | |||
<br><br><br> | |||
''Wrong Mikhail. You did not have to war Westmoor.'' | |||
<br><br> | |||
This is so hilarious it brought me to tears. We didn't have to war Westmoor? Just like OR didn't have to war the SoA? You have to be joking. | |||
<br><br><br> | |||
''In fact, when I was Queen Fontan promised repeatedly that Westmoor duchy would become its own realm. We had even planned our treaty signing at the secession of Westmoor'' | |||
<br><br> | |||
Well it would be one already, maybe you should ask OR and Sirion why it isn't. That is after all what started our war with them in the first place. | |||
<br><br><br> | |||
''The realm of Westmoor has done nothing to you,'' | |||
<br><br> | |||
See above, above and above, above, above. | |||
<br><br><br> | |||
''Your reasonings for warring upon my realm are pathetic and full of flaws.'' | |||
<br><br> | |||
What? What reason do we have to not be warring Westmoor. It's people declared war on us long ago, when Perdan started the war to create it. That's right Perdan's sole reason for starting their war with Fontan was to create Westmoor, the other reasons they gave were just a ruse to make them look good. Don't believe me? Westmoor's paper clearly states it. I'll even give you a copy of the article:<br><br> | |||
''Westmoor secedes''<br> | |||
''The idea of Westmoor's creation has finally become a reality. '''The ideal began with King Nightmare of Perdan, who desired to see the rebirth of his long lost allies, Oligarch. His sucessor King Sangue reinforced the idea and brought Perdan a step closer by leading the realm in a successful campaign against Fontan, capturing the city of Westmoor.''' Lady Evangeline, former Queen and General of Perdan, was chosen for appointment to lead the ideal. However, since decades have come and gone since the falling of Oligarch the ideal became a new realm, with it own identity and the opportunity to create its own position within the continent. The ideal became Westmoor.'' | |||
<br><br> | |||
What reason do we have for warring Westmoor? No, no, no, the question is; What reason do you have for warring Fontan? | |||
<br><br><br> | |||
''I don't believe you even understand the magnitude of what you have done. I have always been a supporter of a friendship with Fontan, I fought against warring Fontan in Perdan until I had exhausted every bone in my body and no longer had a chance of stopping it.'' | |||
<br><br> | |||
So wait, your paper says that Westmoor had been planned for quite some time. And that for quite some time you were chosen to be it's leader. Yet you were against the war to create this realm that you were supposed to lead? How does that make any sense at all? The person who was to gain the most from the war, who had planned out a new realm to be created by the war, was against the war? | |||
<br><br><br> | |||
''I secede a new realm, go against the wishes of Perdan and offer Fontan peace.'' | |||
<br><br> | |||
The wishes of Perdan were to create a new realm out of Fontanese lands, I'd say that you secession is indee in line with their wishes. | |||
<br><br><br> | |||
''You represent your people so that I don't have to write to 100 odd nobles about the diplomacy between Westmoor and Fontan.'' | |||
<br><br> | |||
Well way you say things that are as idiotic as you have said, your going to get called out on it. | |||
<br><br><br> | |||
I guess that's enough. I'll now let you decide. I've attached a poll here: [[Evangeline Poll]]. Vote for your prefered choice.}} | |||

headline = Gregor Escapes| | |||
author = Alise Athins| | |||
article = After two unsuccessful attempts, The Tyrant, Gregor, finally managed to escape the executions blade, minuted before he was to be executed. After his escape he sent out this message to the rulers of the East Continent: | |||
<br> | |||
''Letter from Gregor Relak (4 hours, 18 minutes ago)''<br> | |||
''Message sent to the Rulers of this world (11 recipients)''<br><br> | |||
''Rulers,''<br><br> | |||
''Recently the Judge of Fontan Duncan Atreides attempted to have me executed. All discussions I had with Fontan about resolving our differences are at an end. I had thought Mikhail to be a man of honor, who respected my protestations against the depredations which had undercut the democratic traditions of Fontan. No more do I think these things, for such a thing could not have been done without his condoning it.''<br><br> | |||
''Alas, the fool plot was not to be as hearing of it I escaped in what is perhaps my last heroic deed before I die. Having enterted my seventieth spring I am an old man who may not live to see very many more days. Old age it appears will be my end long before the vengeful blades of my adopted home.''<br><br> | |||
''For that reason, should the confederacy fall utterly into ruin I will journey to Al Arab where I was born, to defend its lands as a hero until struck down in battle.''<br><br> | |||
''Gregor Relak''<br> | |||
''Lord Protector of Confederacy of Fontan, Representative of Fontan''<br><br><br> | |||
The hilarious part in there is Gregor talks about resolving his differences with Fontan, like he still had a chance to. The CoF is destroyed. We have resolved our differences Gregor. | |||
It seems Gregor will be joining with our Friends in [[Ibladesh]]. We wish them luck in dealing with this senile old man.}} | |||
