Morgan read the ost..then paused as he read Lupton's..his eyes narrowed as a soft anger bubbled up within him. He released a tight breath and closed his eyes, then turned. Writing once more.

So you bring up a past Lupton..a recent one. You of all people should understand the situation between me and Elle. I find it..disheartening that you would throw that up in my face, but now that its opened. I will speak of it. Yes, at one time long ago did I love Ellen Mcbride..with all my heart. We were too be married, but then I made a mistake. One I thought was out of love..do I still remorse over it? Yes. Of course. Elle will always have a
place in my heart. I will defend her with my own life till my dying day..could I really ever truly kill Elle? No. The book on me is closed as of a few days ago Lupton. I suppose you hadn't heard. Do I try too put myself on a pedastul as being perfect? No. Im far from from it, as its unattainable. I will say this though, at least unlike some other lazy Warlords, and Barons alike, I dont want too sit around and just let what is happening happen. You
will sit and talk about the degradation among table talk. You will complain and gripe of it too friends, yet you lack the strength, will, or inititiative too at least speak out against it." Morgan paused slightly in his writing..eyes furrowed..then started writing again.."I have my honor Lupton. So dont throw Elle up into my face again, I ask you that as a friend. Its not threat, just merely a request. I do promise you that our relationship,
fighting, aruging..its done with, its over. For both of us. I have a new goal now. I can forgive Lupton.

Many ask what I plan too do." He paused again..then sighed quietly..writing.."That..as I have said and said, will be left in the dark, only for those of us actually intrested in having the vision to try and do something."

As for you Agrenish..your the perfect example of what has bought the Arena too what it is. You display uncaring, no vision and hopelesness..you portray coldness, disrespect for the common man. Insult me if you want, make fun if you will. If its your masq..then wear it proudly."

With that, Morgan posted the note up in order. Then turned walking away. His eyes dark and somber.

Those of the arena, retired and current, have little faith in one who attacks and mars women who have done nothing to cause ye a need for physical defense.

The basement needs leaders, good sir, but let someone of decency claim the role.



~Lupton est Dracoern


Lupton, your memory okay? I seem to remember a night, late, in the Arena in which someone entered in tears and worried that they might lose a baby. Why? It seems that a then Baron beat her up. Hmmmmm. I remember an old saying. I think it goes something like this: "People who live in glass houses...."
I've forgotten rest. What a shame.

Percival,

I'm yet to ever assume or desire a role of moral leadership for the Duel of Swords as Sir Redheart has proclaimed. It is for the reasons ye have mentioned and more that prove to me, in my own sense, that I am not suitable for such a role.

Thanks for telling me what I already know about myself MoreGone. I needed the boost. But, you're stil wrong about me, I didn't bring this Arena to what it is, you did, and all who act like you who whine like you who even think like you. Because the honorables can't agree on anything except that they don't like people like me.

Ping Pam little man, learn where to focus your futile efferts.

Morgan,
Upon reading the highlighted text, I cannot help but wonder who you are directing this comment at.
We disagree with your method of change and because of this, we're lazy? We lack strength, will, and courage? I think people hold opinions about the arena, but as a whole, they like how things are. Thus, I personally do not think this makes them lazy.
Finally, you claim to lead a revolution and keep the methods privy to those who like what they hear? I don't agree, but then again, I'm not taking a part in it. I just think, in my opinion, it would show fairness to everyone to know what this organization plans to do.

Then again, that's just me.

People of the community.

Hold to your ideals... what ever they are. The Gods know I will hold to mine.
If you lay claim to a higher standard, then live up to it. But do not force others to live up to your own standards, in so doing, you only lower yourself.
Teach by example, learn by observation and action... and do not condemn that which you do not understand, simply because you do not understand it.
I thank you for your time.
