Planning on apping at Es War Einmal (canon: Exalted)

...No.

Absolutely not.

I have already had quite enough experience fighting a battle I don't care for without having to do it on behalf of a nation of people apparently too weak to take care of themselves. At least I can be assured of my current circle-mates having some basic degree of competence. [ ...except maybe Hematite. How much of an idiot do you have to be to pause fighting to waste time asking defeated opponents to "please stop being bad"? ]

And the whole thing is because they're frightened that their precious kingdom will be overtaken by "thorns"? That sounds like a good thing, if you ask me. Not, of course, that anyone ever does.

That is rather presumptuous. Also ill-advised. After all, you'll likely do more harm than help toward their particular problem.

[It's not really a judgment. It's merely what she thinks. She doesn't really care about whether they clear the thorns or not, after all.]

Although I don't quite see why they can't just have a sorcerer clear out the thorns, or summon elementals to tend to their forests.

[Surely it's as easy as that?]

[ No offense taken. It really is just a statement of fact. ]

If I don't simply choose to help in my own way, of course. But it already doesn't seem that they're likely to appreciate my way of seeing things. [ Why can't more people be like Deathknights? It turns out they're surprisingly reasonable once you talk to them. ]

And for a land with magic enough to kidnap heroes for itself, it really is ridiculous. I can only assume they're lazy: why do the work, when you can force someone else?

It does seem a rather strange solution.

[also, why would they summon Oroonoko of all people and not her

is there something wrong with her

do they not want an awesome sorceress

what is it]

(( hey carly

hey

you could fix that >:3 ))

I had always assumed that mortals would be better off without Exalts or Anathema to fight their battles for them. Perhaps I have been giving them too much credit.
