Dearest Faedra,

I am //appalled// at the accusations made against Yeralih and Xavius in
public news. As the largest and most active guild in the Basin, how are
you assume that the machinations those two generate has harmed the
Blacktalon. How -dare- you assume that their deficiencies, utter
disregard, and lack of presence for exceptional periods of time
constitute a failure on their behalf to serve.

If Yeralih wishes to have people serve in Nests who are no longer
present to monopolize her authority within the guild, you need not make
fowl remarks! It takes discipline and a refined sense of arrogance even
I cannot match to watch not your enemies, but your friends and family
fall to pieces around you to satisfy your inner glutton. Magnagora would
be hard pressed to elect such a ruthless, wicked leader so rejoice in
the mayhem that is Yeralih. She's one of a kind!

Likewise, Xavius wages many wars in the name of Glomdoring and the
Blacktalon. While it is true the majority of them are upon folk in your
forest, seek shelter and false memory. You too can deny reality and
accept his omnipotence with time!

=====+=====

Jest aside, congratulations, child! You have succeeded in uprooting
(although we shall see for how long) some of the most poisoned leaders
in this Basin. You and some of your peers have victory where others (and
I'm talking about kind, decent people who were forced to seek other
guilds in Glomdoring) have failed.

Best of luck. You've accomplished more in a few years than most could
hope for in a lifetime, but I do hope you continue to surprise us.
