They Wanted Yet Another Apology

Written by: Vagrant Lord Kalak Vaelinos

Addressed to: Everyone



[This notice is written in Aetolian language but letters reflect a more archaic form]

Disclaimer: Non-Sciomancer parties may stop reading at this point. Because this apology breakdown mostly concerns them.

Sciomancers,

Seems like no apology, extension of olive branches or more creative methods will be enough for Conservator Tekias Uymari and Shadow Warden Teani Tash'Vetra. Conservator Tekias implored me that my earlier apologies were -never- enough hence I should break things up. So I will break things up in detail for what I do apologize for, and what I do not apologize for.

What I do not apologize for:
----------------------------

- For trying to end the monopoly of Teani upon pill prices back in time, I have decided to preside upon the prices of guild shop after refusing her corrupt deals.

- For creating a Shadow Path that would be make the presence of Sciomancers more active in the lands, rather then making us appear like ignorant bookworms in their ivory towers with an inflated sense of importance.

- For donating 520 credits worth wealth to buy 13 casks from Teani when she threatened to remove her casks from the guild shop. It was my gullibility not knowing they cannot be transferred to the guild ownership. After all I cannot apologize for having a gullible moment.

- For supporting that magic should be practiced freely in real occasions rather then going through convoluted puzzles and second rate artificial challenges which does not add to the guild itself.

- For trying to create a fairer guild with laws where people are not at the mercy of a circle of people who can choke the life out of the organization.

- For making them feel insecure in their situation with my presence.

- For not actually stealing anything from the guild shop when they attempted to frame me as a thief.

- For keeping my word to one person about stepping down. I shall not apologize for living up to my words.

- For believing that the leader of the guild should be well-versed in the practice of the arcane arts rather then employing claws as the first resort.

What I do apologize for:
------------------------

- For kicking Teani and Xavin from the guild before removing myself from it. Possibly it was unnecessary theatrics at that point.

- For the people who died collaterally along those who deserved to die a thousand deaths.

- For ridiculing the guild more then they deserved sometimes, after all they cannot be all that bad right? RIGHT?

- For believing that people can be reasoned with.

You might not like me ever, but I never considered Sciomancers to be a place where the most popular one calls the shots and sits on his or her laurels for ages, but as a place of camaraderie and unity. A place where everyone can find something for themselves. A place worth being there and fighting for without a doubt. And for not being able to realize that vision, I do apologize from all of you.

Under moon and star,
-Kalak Vaelinos
