I will be quick and skip the petty insults and backhanded words, only
because it is deemed I need to do so, and as you have already cost me
1000 gold, and I won't let you take my time as well, Marina. Hold your
tongue, and snap your quill in half - your words, in all the false
accusations and misgivings put behind them, mean nothing.

Blaming Magnagora for anything going on with novices is like blaming us
for the Sun rising in the morning and setting in the evening. Your
personal bias and inability to see into the real situation at hand is
disgusting, and I will not stand for such lies to be spread about like
that.

I don't condone novice hunting, and I can say the same for the other
City Leaders and Ministers, not just in our city, but hopefully ANY city
and Commune, unless that novice has done something to earn their death.
Several people in the realm, including Serenwilders, Celestians, rogues,
and yes, even Magnagorans, are to blame, but only on a personal basis
for those commiting the act of newbie-killing. No organization is
responsible in itself for newbie-slaying.

As for villages, take a chance, and look past your own nose. Ask
Narsrim, or Tuek, or any of the Celestian Allies (depending on whenever
it seems to suit the commune, anyhow.) about why villagers in Dairuchi
need to be attacked, or Angkrag, or Acknor, or any village we have held
in Magnagora. Unless of course, your personal belief is that it's fine
should a member of your own commune commit the very acts you condemn
others for.

You can only slap a wolf so many times before they react in retaliation.
If you insist on doing as such, you must live with the teeth buried in
your hand.
