You spend a great deal of energy, far too much really, trying to goad the
fighters of Thakria into facing ridiculously long odds for your
entertainment. Your petty threats, childish insults, and general idiocy you
spout, shout and intone are uselessly transparent to us, and to those you
would try to influence with your rhetoric. You willingly vilify those a
quarter of your size, with fighting experience measured in months rather
than years, hoping to illicit some sort of enraged response that enables you
or your citymates to kill or rob your target. It is transparent, it is generally
useless and the rest of Avalon can only roll their eyes at your posturing
and chuckle. Give it a rest already.
I wonder now, after thinking about it further, to whom this post is really
directed. Perhaps I have taken it too much at face value, and your post is
really intended to be read by the flagging Springtown fighters who have
been getting shipped out of Thakria on a much more regular basis now
that our citizens are reaching a quarter of your size as opposed to
labouring under a might disadvantage of eight to one. Perhaps this,
coupled with the loss of tens of thousands of troops in your failed invasion
to no gain has the old guard in Springtown concerned. I can see now that
your post is actually a veiled effort to raise their spirits. Keep up the good
work. If recent history shows, they will need all the encouragement they
can get.
