Stop. Stop saying the word dynasty. This isn't a dynasty. We aren't creating a locked heritage of monarchical rulers. We're talking about one man, Guts Holla. Your instance on referring to his rule as a 'tyranny' or a 'dynasty' is slanderous to my candidate. "Problems that are 'beneath him'"? Guts has spoken openly about his desire to help Eubric throw off its shackles. All you seem to be doing is repeating how we need a republic. Explain, elaborate. How exactly are you going to bring about this change?

As if you're so different. You may insist that you have no desire to rule, but you were still the first to step forth. You talk about creating a united republic, but then go talking about being a single leader as if the two weren't mutually exclusive. How do you see this turning out? What is your end goal, Whisperer? Or do you really believe you are a candidate purely because you 'don't want to be king'? I can't stand this indecision, married with a lack of vision. Everybody wants to rule the world, and I don't believe you to be any different, so don't act so high and mighty. You claim Guts is biased, but don't say how. He's not from Eubric. He has no stake here, save the people. He has no need nor desire to forge dynasties, he's here to save people. Or are you forgetting the slums of Eubric, where the poor lay dying and orcs yell for mercy? Are those the 'freemen' you speak of? Eubric isn't free. It's gripped in fear, from witches and monsters that Heroica is only barely holding back, and from the politics that have choked out the light for so long. Or have you forgotten how we got here? Do you really think the oppressed want more politics? A republic is all well and good in concept, but it's not what Eubric needs. Eubric needs a singular leader with singular focus - stripping down the needless politics and raising the people once again.

You speak of unity as if you know what that means. Where you at Baltarok? Did you run up against Wren, or the Regret? I would love to speak of true unity as if it were attainable. Anyone who knows me would know that I live and breathe by the third option. The sad fact of the matter is not everyone is willing to co-operate. Sometimes, you come down to two equally right forces and you simply can't reconcile that. Not everyone can be reasoned with. What do you do then, Whisperer? True democracy only works as long as everyone is satisfied with it, and we are in our nature unsatisfied. Vampire, U'kin, Jei Pei - you here in particular have reason to feel unsatisfied. Sungold would have you held back and restrained. They believe control is they way that Eubric will return to former glory. They don't realize that our freedom is what makes this culture unique, this collection of groups and peoples from around the globe. Yet this is also what makes 'democracy' impossible. We as a whole could never come to a consensus, this split proves that. What we need is a leader who can be pragmatic - who will care about raising Eubric instead of themselves. Who can be unbiased in the face of a storm of unsatisfaction. This is why I nominate Guts. Because Guts has seen war. He's seen diversity, he's seen division, and he ignores it - moving past petty trials and focusing on the heart of the matter. While men like you and me would strive for unity, it has no place here. A pragmatic man like Guts is the only way we will rise above this needless squabble. We must focus on the good of Eubric, and I believe Guts, in his determination, is capable of that. He's more experience than you, Whisperer, and he's less biased than you, Jun Ji-Pei. While I hold the highest respect for you and your country, the fact is you are too near the heart of the matter to see things with true clarity. The leader of the Crescent Union must be higher than to focus on 'us or Sungold'. They need to think first and foremost to Eubric, and I believe Guts is worthy of that position.

'Hunters can wield anything suitable for both a Barbarian and a Ranger'. This is true for everything from weapons to armour to accessories.

I don't care how good his intentions are, I care what they are. His actions will speak for themselves. I've been nothing but supportive, Zane. This world isn't all about ourselves, you know. ...Nothing like Wren, you say? Something older, then? ...that's troubling indeed. I watch carefully as the young man drinks. By gaining life, he's throwing it away, I murmur. Forever is his today. Who waits forever anyway?- 603 replies

I sit quietly, overhearing lists of gifts and special items. They were all very well and clever. Thinking deeply, I realize I can't find anything more fitting for my friends and allies. Instead, I write up simple letters to those I know, wishing them a well and happy holiday, and hoping they keep relatively safe. A more conversational letter is written to one Eyric Rone, apologizing again for the chaos my recent visit may have caused. Finally, one final letter is penned.

I didn't even realize it was coming up. I'll try to put out a list soon, but I'm really not the most imaginative with these things...

Hard to say. He's definitely the kind to stray from a fight if he knows he can't win. It would surprise me too much to see him back out. I'm not sure what our next step is, all I know is we're getting to that fountain eventually. Let it be known that while Jun Ji Pei stayed at home, Candidate Guts Holla spent his time going to toe-to-toe with giant wyrms and insane sorcerers whilst discovering the Fountain of Youth.- 603 replies

Okay, I have an idea. We use what shovels we have to dig out a hole deep enough to lay Daneeka in. Then we used our drinks to bathe him and get all the acid off.- 603 replies

The inn? That's some distance. I woke with Zane and Solimon. They tried to deal again, I said I couldn't make a lot of promises without you. I got them to at least begin to cooperate. I figured you could take care of yourself, and Matthias would still have his Heroic protection - but Daneeka was eaten and could potentially die. We went after him but found Parvati and Matthias first.- 603 replies

Taking place after 139, yada yada. With hesitation, Dyic steps into the building. There was a lot about the Crescent Union that irked him - and even more about the split in general. Conflict was bound to happen. Yet the simple fact was, Eubric needed a party with the best interests in mind, and there wasn't a single house member he trusted for that role. I join the Crescent Union and cast my votes to Guts Holla for King.
