DISRUPTION IN THE RANKS OF THE FIGHTER'S GUILD

Driala asks, "Has everyone read Rinfa's recent post?"

Kaioti says to Driala, "My apologies if I offended anyone"

Ryko nods

Kaioti says, "I havent"

Rakesh lays his ears back partially and nods to the two that looked at him

Kaioti says, "Pose I should"

Mysti says, " Mysti, was General of the Outriders according to Rinfa"

Miaowara asks, "About the training regimen?"

Mysti says, " sorry Driala"

Mysti says, " yes its an outrage"

Miaowara hmms

Kaioti says, "You didnt have to go through it"

Driala asks, "The one in regards to stripping the rank of everyone in the army and the training regimen?"

Mysti says, " thankfully"

Miaowara says, "We have about three fourths of the awake guild here."

Kaioti says, "I spent 4 crown doing suicide missions against that dragon"

Kaioti says, "He told us, we need to work together to take him down"

Kaioti says, "We didn't have a strategy"

Kaioti says, "We would go running in after we sat a bit, and get one swing in before we all fell"

Driala says, "I'll reread it just in case."

Kaioti says, "He stated, that we would practice giving our lives for Gahlen"

Driala says, "Hmm... though that may take a while."

Miaowara blinks

Mysti shakes her head sadly

Kaioti says, "The last time we went, his saying was Be prepared to die"

Kaioti shakes his head

Driala takes a scroll from her pack.

Driala says, "From this moment on you all have zero rank over one another, save in times of invasion, then General Rydel, General Mysti, Over-General Driala and Captain Sahar have their ranks back."

Driala says, "But ONLY for the time of invasion."

Ryko nods

Kaioti nods

Miaowara says, "Um."

Kaioti gets a scroll from his pouch

Kaioti says, "I have the same"

Driala asks Kaioti, "Can you speak quicker?"

Miaowara asks, "Shouldn't we rather be prepared to make other people die, rather than doing the requisite dying ourselves?"

Ryko grins

Mysti smirks

Rakesh frowns

Mysti says, " makes more sense to me"

Rakesh asks, "If I may ask, what exactly is the point to this "meeting"?"

Kaioti says to Rakesh, "Patience"

Kaioti says, "If you dont have it"

Rakesh raises his eyebrows

Driala says to Rakesh, "This is very serious guild business and I thought that all members should be involved. You need to know what has occured."

Kaioti says, "Find it please"

Rakesh nods at Driala

Rakesh asks, "If this is serious guild business.. why isnt the commander here?"

Mysti whispers to Kaioti.

Kaioti hmms

Kaioti picks through the scrolls

Kaioti asks, "Training camp one correct?"

Driala says, "He refused a guild meeting."

Rakesh says, "So you meet behind his back..."

Kaioti says to Driala, "Leana is on here way"

Rakesh ponders the situation

Ryko wonders

Ryko looks at Rakesh.

Driala says to Rakesh, "I have already met with him just now."

Miaowara asks to Rakesh, "Correct me if I'm wrong, but are we not, as individuals, allowed to gather and discuss as we please?"

Driala says to Kaioti, "Should I continue or do you have it."

Kaioti asks, "Which do you wish to know?"

Rakesh shrugs

Rakesh says, "I merely asked why he wasnt here"

Miaowara whispers to Rakesh.

Rakesh whispers to Miaowara.

Kaioti says, "This is being done for a reason, I am under pressure from the Council for reform within the ranks of the Army, and upon furthing study I too feel it necessary. We will begin a training camp for all Fighters awake when I am. Every time that a command staff member awakens, at the moment limited to myself, every fighter awake will salute. After the salute an immediate report of activities will be given over the Army mindlink. After the reports are given all Fighters will ask for orders, if I am awake for a length of time I deem suitable, all Fighters will be given orders to mass at a location of my choosing, were we will ALL participate in activities until I am satisfied. If you fail to follow these orders you will be placed under review and if found wanting shall be suspended from the Army for a length of time equal to your lacking."

Leana arrives from the east.

Kaioti wipes his forehead, "Whew!"

Kaioti says, "Holy shit"

Leana blinks

Kaioti says, "I never spoke that much in my life"

Ryko gives Kaioti a glass of water

Kaioti thanks Ryko

Mysti chuckles softly

Kaioti drinks the glass quickly

Kaioti licks his muzzle Leana sits on her hind legs.

Driala asks Leana, "Are you a Fighter as well?"

Leana nods at Driala

Driala smiles

Rakesh looks at Leana.

Leana says, "Aye General. . ."

Rakesh smiles quietly

Leana asks, "What is going on. . ?"

Rakesh whispers to Leana.

Driala asks Leana, "Have you read Rinfa's most recent post?"

Leana shakes her head no

Kaioti says, "Further punishment will be decided upon should you fail to reform yourself. If you have a problem with this, tough, you're in the Army and I am displeased at the moment. -Commander Rinfa -Silverwolf of the Council"

Leana says, "I woke and Kaioti told me to come here, so I did. . ."

Kaioti says, "Ok...I can repeat the entire letter if you all wish"

Driala asks Kaioti, "I'm sorry, but could you read it again for her?"

Ryko smiles.

Driala says, "It is important."

Miaowara hmms

Kaioti says, "From this moment on you all have zero rank over one another, save in times of invasion, then General Rydel, General Mysti, Over-General Driala, and Captain Sahar once again have their ranks back. But ONLY for the time of the invasion." Kaioti says, "This is being done for a reason, I am under pressure from the Council for reform within the ranks of the Army, and upon furthing study I too feel it necessary. We will begin a training camp for all Fighters awake when I am. Every time that a command staff member awakens, at the moment limited to myself, every fighter awake will salute. After the salute an immediate report of activities will be given over the Army mindlink. After the reports are given all Fighters will ask for orders, if I am awake for a length of time I deem suitable, all Fighters will be given orders to mass at a location of my choosing, were we will ALL participate in activities until I am satisfied. If you fail to follow these orders you will be placed under review and if found wanting shall be suspended from the Army for a length of time equal to your lacking."

Kaioti says, "Further punishment will be decided upon should you fail to reform yourself. If you have a problem with this, tough, you're in the Army and I am displeased at the moment. -Commander Rinfa -Silverwolf of the Council"

Kaioti grins mischievously

Ryko laughs softly

Ryko nods at Kaioti

Kaioti claps

Driala says to Kaioti, "You read quickly."

Ryko agrees

Ryko says, "you should handle the auctions for the merchants"

Ryko winks at Kaioti

Mysti chuckles

Kaioti laughs

Leana asks, "So I am to assume that the Commander deems us all unsuitable to be fighters. . ?"

Mysti says, " basically"

Kaioti says, "More or less, He is the only gifted fighter"

Driala says, "I have no idea exactly where this came from."

Leana hmms

Driala says, "This came out of nowhere for me."

Leana says, "I'm not sure either, but I am not very pleased to hear this. . ."

Mysti says, " no one is"

Leana asks, "So what are we to do then. . ?"

Kaioti asks to Driala, "Did he give me audience on the link just to salute him?"

Driala says, "He did not consult with me nor anyone else before he posted this to the Fighters."

Leana flicks her ears forward.

Driala says, "I confronted him over our mental link this evening. Some of you were alert to hear it."

Kaioti shuffles about uncomfortably

Ryko nods

Kaioti nods

Leana asks, "What happened. . ?"

Kaioti allows Driala to explain, excitement showing true in his eyes

Driala says, "I honestly wished to know what we had done punishement."

Kaioti wags his tail quickly

Driala says, "He informed us that it was not punishment but training."

Leana nods slowly

Driala asks, "He mentioned the training earlier. How did that go?"

Driala says, "I was not awake."

Kaioti grunts

Kaioti says, "I stated it all at the beginning"

Ryko says, "a little odd to say the least"

Kaioti says, "Gimme a minute to remember"

Leana says, "I don't like the sounds of that at all. . ."

Kaioti says, "Ok, I'll start out at the beginning"

Leana nods slowly

Kaioti says, "Gimme a moment to gather my thoughts please"

Miaowara says, "I say, as Commander, he does deserve a measure of respect. The Duke does not pick the leader of his army lightly. However, obviously that respect can be lost in the eyes of the troops, and is *not* given freely, he must earn it as the rest of us must earn our respect. He does have some valid points, mainly that, as the defense of Gahlen, we need to be trained and ready at any time. We should be respectful of our commanders, and follow their commands. However, as I just said, he does not gain our respect freely, and cannot rule us with an iron fist. That never works. True leaders lead, even when they command their troops to do something "unpleasant", with a demeanor that gains the respect, because they deserve it, not just because they demand it."

Miaowara says, "I'm rambling. Someone shut me up before I get my tongue cut out."

Driala says to Miaowara, "No, everyone here speak freely."

Ryko says to Miaowara, "a valid and well thought point"

Driala asks, "The Commander put a Red Dragon in the Arena for a few Fighters to fight is that correct?"

Kaioti says, "Aye"

Driala asks, "What occured?"

Ryko nods at Driala

Kaioti says, "After acting like a drill sgt. in the center of town"

Miaowara asks, "Wow...how'd he manage that one?"

Ryko wiggles his fingers

Ryko says, "magic"

Ryko grins

Kaioti says, "We came to the arena, not knowing what to expect"

Driala says to Miaowara, "We are able to summon creatures magically in the Arena."

Kaioti says, "He said we had to work together to take him down. Then mentioned something about learning to sacrifice ourselves for Gahlen. Practicing giving our lives."

Driala says to Miaowara, "It is part of the Magic of the Mage's Guild that enchants the Arena."

Kaioti asks to Driala, "You want me to explain or let you finish?"

Ryko says, "we mastered that one"

Driala says to Kaioti, "Only the most valid points."

Kaioti says, "Look closely and see the points"

Kaioti says, "Pretty much"

Leana says, "Every single one of us would give our lives to protect Gahlen, we have proven that many times. . ."

Ryko smiles

Ryko agrees with Leana

Miaowara hmms

Kaioti says, "Aye"

Kaioti says, "It was like he wanted us to die"

Kaioti says, "There was five of us"

Mysti says, " he removed the post"

Driala says, "I mentioned to Rinfa again that he was punishing us.. If that were not so he would not have stripped our rank."

Miaowara says, "Simple peasants can give their lives to a cause. We train so that we will accomplish our cause *without* dying."

Driala says, "The Duke informed Rinfa that I was to retain my rank earlier this evening because he felt it was needed for the protection of Gahlen."

Driala says, "Those that were awake. If I say something incorrect. Please correct me. And if anyone has anything to ad please do so."

Leana nods

Ryko nods

Kaioti says, "Add at the end"

Driala says, "He told us that disrespect among the ranks had been growing more common and this has bothered him for a very long time."

Driala says, "I told him that I understood instituting policies and disciplining individuals but this I did not understand."

Driala says, "He said that he was disassified with the state of the army and would continue until he is satisifed."

Driala says, "He said that we were to learn to follow orders and that we have sucked at it before."

Ryko says, "When the Commander felt he was being accused of wrong doing by a soldier, he then made a threat, though not life threatening, I don't think.."

Ryko asks to Driala, "do you remember that vividly?"

Ryko says, "Im a little blurry on the whole conversation"

Driala says, "That he was dissatisfied with discipline and treatment of new fighters as well as overall lack of cohesivness. And when he saw it the exercise would end."

Kaioti says, "I do"

Miaowara coughs a little

Driala says, "He said until he and noone else was satisfied this would continue."

Kaioti says to Driala, "You can use my name"

Miaowara asks, "Kaioti, you are a "new" fighter, are you not?"

Kaioti shrugs Kaioti says, "Perhaps"

Mysti says, " realativly"

Ryko says, "I can understand the Commander being unhappy with the guilds state, but one should actually be around to notice.."

Kaioti nods at Ryko

Kaioti says, "And be involved"

Driala says, "He said that the Duke and the Council had faith in him and I pointed out that his soldiers now did not have faith in him."

Leana agrees

Kaioti says to Driala, "Hold on a moment"

Kaioti asks to Driala, "If they had faith, why did they question it in the first place?"

Driala asks Kaioti, "When do you mean?"

Kaioti says, "If they had faith in him on how he ran the guild. Why was the matter brought up during council, -forcing- him to make changes"

Kaioti points back to the parchment

Kaioti says, "This is being done for a reason, I am under pressure from the Council for reform within the ranks of the Army, and upon furthing study I too feel it necessary. We will begin a training camp for all Fighters awake when I am. Every time that a command staff member awakens, at the moment limited to myself, every fighter awake will salute. After the salute an immediate report of activities will be given over the Army mindlink. After the reports are given all Fighters will ask for orders, if I am awake for a length of time I deem suitable, all Fighters will be given orders to mass at a location of my choosing, were we will ALL participate in activities until I am satisfied. If you fail to follow these orders you will be placed under review and if found wanting shall be suspended from the Army for a length of time equal to your lacking."

Kaioti says, "First Line"

Driala says to Kaioti, "You make a valid point."

Kaioti says, "I was fishing with a member of the council"

Kaioti says, "She said she had not heard a word of it"

Driala says, "Kaioti and Ryko spoke some words to him as well. My point to him was this."

Driala says, "His behavior as of late has been very erratic."

Driala says, "We do notdeserve the treatment that we are getting, especially when we have not been told why we were getting it."

Ryko nods

Leana agrees wholeheartedly

Kaioti nods

Ryko says, "that was part of the oath about following orders blindly"

Mysti agrees

Leana hmms

Driala says, "True respect is not commanded it is earned."

Driala says, "There is an incident that occured weeks ago that I don't believe any of you know about."

Driala says, "It happened after an invasion that ended in near disaster."

Driala says, "One in which Eden was captured and brought to the Southlands."

Leana nods slowly

Driala says, "His judgment was questioned to the realm and his response was, "Do as I say not as I do.""

Kaioti says, "I heard about this"

Mysti nods

Leana hmms

Mysti says, " I knew about it"

Kaioti says, "Miarna told me"

Leana asks, "We do not follow double standards, do we. . ?"

Driala says, "He rushed into the desert all by himself without telling anyone."

Driala says, "We found out about this while we were in the desert and in concern for his safety were rushing to him. Many of you know how unsafe that is but we felt it was warranted."

Driala says, "Three people fell behind in the desert. One died."

Kaioti shivers

Leana nods slightly

Rakesh hmms

Driala says, "When we met up with Rinfa many of us were angry but we still needed to save Eden. Garxer refused to be under his command and left on his own."

Driala says, "He died."

Kaioti sighs Driala says, "We fought a fierce battle and a few more died."

Mysti bites on her lower lip softly as she listens

Kaioti says, "Rinfa's tactic on dying shines brightly again.."

Rakesh says, "You said for us all to speak freely..If that is the case, I would like to voice something... and I want every one of you to hear me"

Mysti looks at Rakesh.

Kaioti turns his attention to Rakesh

Leana looks at Rakesh.

Rakesh says, "I am the newest member of the Garrison.. The least trained, and the least known... And I am the most ashamed I have ever been in my life. I came to Gahlen to become a fighter.. A part of the Garrison, a guild of honor.. And the same day I join.. I find the entire guild, rallying in some hallway, downtalking their Commander.. Downing his Orders.. and stirring trouble. I'm horrified to see such backstabbing and sneaky methods, in a such a supposidly honorable guild. Had I wanted to sneak around, and backstab those in charge, I would have joined the Thieves guild"

Kaioti wields a silver long sword.

Ryko wields a bastard sword.

Ryko wields a silver dagger.

Mysti lays a hand on Kaioti

Driala says to Rakesh, "I do not take what I am speaking of lightly at all."

Driala says, "I would not be in this Hall right now if I felt I had another choice."

Rakesh says, "I am ashamed, and disapointed to even be labeled the same as all of you.. and disgusted to even be in the same room with the likes of you"

Kaioti says to Rakesh, "Your the reason we are here"

Driala says to Kaioti, "Stop"

Driala exclaims, "EVERYONE STOP!"

Rakesh says, "Your own failures, are the reason you are here"

Miaowara says to Kaioti, "You too"

Ryko mutters under his breath

Mysti lays a hand on Kaioti

Kaioti slips the dagger into his belt

Leana says, "WE didn't come here to fight amoungst ourselves. . ."

Mysti says, " that is the last thing we need"

Driala says to Rakesh, "I am not saying anything here right now that I have not just said to Rinfa to his face."

Miaowara says, "I also wish to speak."

Ryko agrees

Driala nods at Miaowara

Kaioti leans his chest into Mysti's back and calms himself

Rakesh says, "You bitch and you whine because he stripped your ranks without explination... From what I have seen, he had a good reason to"

Ryko twitches Rakesh says, "I'll have nothing else to do with any of you"

Leana twitches

Driala says to Rakesh, "You just said that you haven't been here long enough to observe anything."

Kaioti says, "Shoulda let me deal with it"

Mysti inhales deeply and lets it out slowly, trying to calm herself as well

Driala asks, "Do anyone of you here think we stand in this Hall lightly?"

Kaioti snarls slightly

Ryko says, "I do not"

Mysti shakes her head no

Leana says, "We have good reason to be here. . ."

Kaioti says, "I wouldnt have stood against him earlier if I didnt"

Kaioti says to Driala, "You will always have my respect and blade"

Ryko says, "This will surely reach Rinfa now"

Kaioti bows his head to Driala

Mysti says, " if anything we haven't said anything that wasn't true, so i don't know what he is getting all huffy about, but i am pretty sure he is running to rinfa"

Leana says, "I think Rakesh will bring an onset of more trouble. . ."

Driala says, "I will continue with what I have to say because you need to know what occurred."

Ryko nods

Kaioti nods

Leana nods

Driala says to Leana, "I just left a private audience with Rinfa."

Kaioti leans against Mysti and listens to Driala

Ryko says, "so be it, left Rinfa come if he wishes"

Leana nods slowly

Driala says, "After that invasion we were angered, saddened, and frustrated at Rinfa's actions."

Driala says, "General Rydel, Captain Sahar, and I confronted him."

Miaowara says, "I am still unsure as to which side, if either, I will take. I see merit in both. On the one hand, I see the injustices done the members of the Fighter's Guild. I understand that we have been treated, in some respects like swine, and thus treated unfairly, expected to do what we cannot see will help anyone. I also see, though, a guild full of individuals; people who would put their own well being ahead of the citizens of Gahlen on the mere suspicion that something may be wrong. I can see the reason Rinfa feels he must quell mutiny in his ranks, because here we are gathered, talking of his incompetence. On the gripping hand, I know next to nothing firsthand about any of this, and cannot pass judgement through the eyes of others."

Miaowara says, "I stand on the fence. I will take no part to help or hinder the other side. If that causes me to be resented by both, so be it."

Driala says to Miaowara, "I understand. I really do appreciate you speaking your mind."

Leana shakes her head slowly, the hackles on the back of her neck standing on ends.

Miaowara says to Driala, "Thank you."

Miaowara says, "As for the rest of you, if you feel you must kill me or Rakesh, choose myself. Perhaps I will sate your taste for blood."

Driala says, "At this confrontation for what we thought was the good of Gahlen we asked for Rinfa's resignation due to his behavior in the invasion, his disrespect to others, and not being here to the point of not being able to run the guild."

Leana asks, "I am very frustrated at what has happened, yes both sides have their validations. . But, if he chooses this reform should he not give us a reason for it. ? Do we not atleast deserve that much. .?"

Driala says, "It was either that or go to the Duke."

Driala says, "This has happened before."

Driala says, "During that meeting he stripped General Rydel of his rank even though it was I that spoke."

Driala says, "Much like he turned on Kaioti this evening when it was I that spoke the most."

Driala says, "I'll try to come to my point quickly for you also need to know what happened just now."

Driala says, "I just spoke with Rinfa."

Ryko wonders

Leana nods slowly

Driala says, "He called me to his office."

Driala says, "I told him that his soldiers had lost respect for him and I do not see how he could ever get it back."

Driala says, "Not with as far as things have gone.."

Driala says, "I know that at this point after many, many instances over the past weeks he will never have my respect again."

Driala says, "He was on my second chance."

Driala says, "I had hoped that he would not do something like this again."

Driala says, "How can we trust someone who acts so eratically? I'm beginning to wonder if he has gone mad."

Ryko nods

Miaowara asks, "Ma'am?"

Leana says, "I am begining to wonder the same with all that I have heard tonight. . ."

Driala says, "I, in good conscience based on what I have observed over and over again, can not put my trust in him to run the guild effectively."

Miaowara says, "If I may suggest this...perhaps he does not turn on you, but turns on others...and acts this way, because he feels like a cornered animal. He knows you hold the direct loyalty of more of us than he does, and is afraid of what that may mean for him."

Kaioti says, "Why he went after me"

Ryko nods

Mysti says, "Makes sense"

Driala says, "Because I do not have trust in him as Commander of the Fighters and for the safety of Gahlen I asked him to resign as Commander or exile me from the Guild."

Leana says, "Even a cornered animal will fight. . If he wanted the same loyality that we give General Driala, he should try, not force us to respect him. . ."

Ryko nods

Kaioti says to Driala, "I would exile myself"

Kaioti says, "If you left"

Miaowara says to Leana, "A cornered animal will fight, but a cornered animal will panic."

Leana says to Miaowara, "Aye, and when they panic is usually when they go mad or do things they will regret. . ."

Driala says, "I can not trust him to lead the Garrison and by staying I am endorsing him. I will pull together a band of warriors on my own if I must to defend Gahlen when the need arises."

Ryko says, "My sword is yours General, always as well as the other generals of this army"

Kaioti says to Driala, "You shall always have my blade Over-General"

Driala says, "I am going to the Duke and I need to know whose support I have."

Driala says, "I don't demand the support."

Kaioti says, "Its given"

Ryko says, "You have mine of course"

Ryko grins

Mysti says, " If you want me to go slam down the Dukes door with you I will"

Driala says, "I want you to act as your conscience dictates."

Miaowara says to Driala, "It depends on the circumstances. I will fight on whichever side I feel comes out right."

Kaioti says to Driala, "You went through what I did that whole week"

Mysti says, " something need to be done, if anything Rinfa needs a little air let out of his head, the power has gotten to him that is for sure"

Miaowara says to Driala, "Do not count me for you. Count me against, that you may be prepared for the contingency."

Driala says to Miaowara, "We are saying that he is unfit to command the Fighter's Guild."

Miaowara says to Driala, "I know."

Driala nods at Miaowara

Miaowara says to Driala, "I am saying that I cannot know at this moment whether or not that is true."

Driala says, "My mind will not change wether I have 100 with me or one."

Leana says to Driala, "You have my support General. . ."

Kaioti says, "You have four here"

Kaioti says, "Im sure Rydel and Sahar would support you"

Mysti says, " I'm sure there are more"

Leana asks, "Shall we all go up and speak with the Duke of the matter. . ?"

<World> Rinfa

I do not care what the Fighters think of me anymore, for some among their ranks have shown their true colors'; return true;" onmouseout="window.status=''; return true;">true colors. When one draws steel against the newest member of the garrison simply because they are in disagreement that is a disgrace beyond measure. Rakesh is under my personal protection, should any have issue with him, they can take it up with me.

Kaioti says, "My oath brother Jeraal as well"

Kaioti laughs

Leana snickers

Ryko rolls his eyes

Mysti shakes her head

Leana says, "It has begun General. . ."

Kaioti holds his fingers together

Kaioti says, "Beebie Rakesh"

Leana says to Driala, "we must now move to speak to the Duke. . ."

Mysti says, " This is crazy, he could have said that over the link"

Leana agrees

Kaioti says, "Let me challenge him"

Leana shakes her head no

Kaioti grunts

Leana says, "That will only make him happy Kaioti. . ."

Kaioti nods

Mysti says, " Be good dear, your anger isn't going to help matters"

Kaioti says, "I just want a hack at him"

Kaioti says, "No one else"

Kaioti shrugs

Driala says, "Let his words hang in the air.."

Driala says, "We know what occured here."

Ryko says, "the swords were drawn out of protection, I felt threatened by his words"

Mysti nods

Kaioti says, "When he punches me in the face after greeting him and giving him my royal chainmail after he fell stupidly in the last invasion"

Leana says to Driala, "I'm comming with you when you speak to the Duke. . ."

Kaioti says, "That ended the respect issue"

Mysti says, " i thought he was going to attack, of course he would have been stupid to do so"

Leana agrees

Ryko says, "I agree that this must be dealt with swiftly, rumors will begin if not and we may be defaced because of them"

Kaioti says, "Ryko's is kin and I knew where is loyalty was."

Kaioti says, "Didnt want anything to happen"

Kaioti grasps Ryko's shoulder firmly

Ryko smiles

Leana stands

Kaioti equips steel-mesh, muzzle mask.

Driala says, "Should we wait for the support of others? Perhaps we could agree to meet with the Duke at a determined time? We will have to ask for an audience."

Ryko nods

Kaioti says, "There should be no need of others, We dont want blades in this"

Ryko says, "whatever you feel the best course of action will be general"

Leana says to Driala, "I think we should move now to speak with him, with what has just happened, it needs to be handled now. . ."

Driala asks, "What do others think?"

Kaioti says, "I agree"

Leana says, "There is enough of us here to back it up. . And knowingly there will be more to follow in our footsteps. . ."

Kaioti says, "The matter needs to be handled"

Ryko agrees

Leana says, "We should request that the Commander be relieved of duty starting immediately. . ."

Leana says, "Before something worse happens. . ."

Kaioti says to Driala, "Now you lost a general"

Mysti says, " But I do support you"

Ryko smiles at Mysti

Kaioti says, "You have three mere soldiers"

Ryko nods

Driala says, "There is no such thing as a "mere" soldier."

Kaioti claps

Kaioti says, "I was hoping to hear that"

Kaioti wags his tail

Leana says, "General, if I may, let who is here move to speak with the Duke. . He will listen since this is urgent. . ."

Driala says, "Each and every one is important to the Defense of Gahlen."

Leana says, "This situation is not something we have taken lightly, and I feel he will take time to listen to us. . ."

Driala says, "I will request an audience with the Duke. He may chose to wait to hear us."

Ryko nods

Driala says, "Let me send him a pigeon first."
