Not only has the Baron, a first time baron at that, felt the need to dictate how the community should react to Melanie's choice of not wishing to use her grant; but he has also *twice* insulted her. The first with his instigating post, and the second after she stated that she will let her weapons speak.
To address this. Melanie's choice to not use the grant to challenge me is her own. The new rules state that ANY Warlord can challenge for the Overlord mantle -- with or without a loyal majority. There is no longer the option of hiding behind a wall and awaiting the day the Warlord Tournament winner uses their grant to challenge. That is in the past, this is the now. It seems Artemus does not understand that. It is how I gained my own position here, after all.Artemus Kurgen wrote:If her intention was to win the Warlord Tournament to take the Challenge Grant, so that no one could challenge the current Overlady, she has succeeded.
My reign as Overlord will be a transparent one. I have listed my reasons for Artemus banishment. Each of you have your own opinion on this matter, and if my actions have caused any of you discomfort, than please align yourself Renegade. I will think nothing different of you for doing so.
Thank you for reading,
