This last post was indeed written by myself, however a foolish Legionnaire named Dan Magnus Imbecilicus posted it before it could be signed. He will be punished. The post is mine.

Why, I ponder, do I feel compelled to note that the Romans never felt the need to build a wall to keep the Welsh out, either?
Amused,

To the Rooman who posted the diatribe on Roman Supremcy,
Ya, your empire did some cool stuff. I was commenting on why their empire fell. I did not belittle their entire exsistence.
The Welsh did not feel a need to go conquering the world to rape other people's women and steal their hardworked wares. the Welsh have always been happy with what they have and enjoying life as simple as they have for a reason. They pride themselves on being reclusive, with a difficult language, and their lifestyle, because considering how the rest of Terra developed over the course of history, who could blame them for not wanting to be involved.

Actually Cas,
He has attempted this, that is why he was in the duel trying to defend his past rings. So he lost...so I lost. He tried, right? Just because you have defended a ring, and he hasnt, doesn't mean you can badmouth him about it.

Ah Cas, I believe anyone could defend a ring if they cower behind the Overlord. You did do this for one of your "defenses" right?
If I am not mistaken, I do believe that our challenge precentages are the same.
Oh, and by the way, what happened to your pretty stationary? You didn't feel threatened by the accusations of other, did you?

Something sturck me about this, as I try to stay impartial. So, I had Christopher run to check the histories for me. I found the quirk that got to me about the statement. Meaning nothing else other than giving information....
Cas has indeed defended his ring once. Against Aphazel Lueitus. Back when he held the 6th.

Wrong, Cletus.
Cassius Gaius Maximius's record(not counting the Intercession):
-Defeated Sartan, to win the Sixth
-Defeated Aphazel Luetius, to retain the Sixth
-Lost to Lupton est Dracoern, defending the Sixth
-Lost to Magnus Eques, challenging for the 13th
Total: 2-2
Cletus Ganderfald's record:
-Defeated Morgana le Fay, to win the 5th
-Lost to Verceterix Gavin Favre, while defending the 5th
-Defeated Walker Boh, to win the 12th
-Lost to Avery Shiv Blade, while defending the 12th
-Lost to Zafiroo Turidan, challenging for the 1st
Total:2-3
Not a shattering difference, mind you, but just to point it out to you: Your facts are incorrect.
Oh, and we both won a Ring this past Tournament. Our stats there:
Name Record Points For Points Agst. #Rounds Pt./Round
Cassius 5-2 31.5 20.5 70 .16
Cletus 4-2 26.5 24 56 .04
What's the point of this? Nothing. But frankly, I got tired of being bothered by you because of the signature. But, you and others were correct, I admitted you were correct, and I fixed it.
Rix, another one of those detractors, was rather appeased, proving his problem was with the ridiculousness of the signature. You however, continue on with the attack. I don't like resorting to flexing proverbial muscles, but honestly Ganderfald, I felt that would be something you could understand. Now end the quarreling? I'm willing to stop if you are.

After some conversations with historians from this Realm called Earth...
I must say I am very glad Father never took me there during our travels. The whole history of that place reminds me of a mixture of the constant warfare of Rhyshek and barbarian tribes of the Black Mountains.
One question though... why do the Romans claim their Empire ran continuously for so great a period? At least the Chinese admit when one Dynasty overcame another. For sheer length of non-anarchy, the feudalistic era in China is unsurpased in the history of the Realm of Earth. For advances in metalurgy, art, philosophy, medicine and science... their culture is unparalleled. For sheer population and achievement of physical monuments, they are
supreme.
I could only hope that the Grand Duchy of Haaristad will achieve such enlightenment of spirit during the years to come.

I was also counting Dalamar's intercession for the then Baroness Morgan Fay.

Romans never needed to keep the Welsh out. The Welsh were some of the most loyal converted Romans up until the very end. After all, this is what a lot of conquered peoples do.

If I remember correctly, the Welsh were too busy fighting each other, raping their own women, and looting each other's wares to conquer anything. Not that this is necessarily a bad thing. It was a culture that functioned for, actually, a lot longer than the Roman culture. They didn't even need to steal from the Greeks.
