I started to rebuild but didn't get very far so I went to join up with the CLA since everyone else was far away. If there becomes anything I can do to help rebuild let me know and I'll head over as my commitments here are done.

jimmydalad posted:Also, part of the reason the reds got so pissed off was that Sa kept on prioritising Blues in their eyes. The Oasis being upgraded, for example, I still think it’s weird they got so pissed about this when Vermillion was one of the main people who helped make that decision.

jimmydalad posted:I’m probably being optimistic, but is there a way to temporarily halt the fighting? If CLA leader leads blues, maybe call a ceasefire a day or two? I don’t know, exiling an entire faction just rings so many bad warning bells for me. There is no way to have peace without a faction being the victor, and the losing faction will get exiled. That’s just the reality of the situation

Krysmphoenix posted:I understand that, but any kind of peace for the foreseeable future requires both sides to learn how to stop fighting when the war ends. Any resentment is just going to cause another war. And I don’t think you realize that that’s not an option! There can be no peace without a winning faction and the losing faction is to be exiled. I’ve said it multiple times and I don’t know how I can make it any clearer.

Krysmphoenix posted:There is no winning faction. War does not create winners. Only widows and orphans. As someone who was kidnapped off Riven I’m well aware of what that looks like. But you refuse to accept the reality of the situation, which is, let me say again, no peace can happen without a distinct winning faction. You can try to give me the moral high ground all you want, but I am telling you your lofty high minded ideals are literally not possible or we would be pushing for that! I came here, being neither blue nor red, to try to find the most peaceful resolution possible. If it were up to me we would draft a ceasefire and there would be no exiles! But it can’t be done.

Krysmphoenix posted:As far as I can tell, there seem to be three groups here. I just don't understand what you are not understanding. When the war started there were two sides: The Reds, who if they win the war will permanently exile the Blues. The Blues, who if they win the war will permanently exile the Reds. Then the CLA came and, somehow, managed to talk the Gods into letting the exile only be a month. Per Divine Instruction, there can be no peace until there is a winner declared in the war. As in, if there is no winner declared, the reds and the blues will fight forever. Literally the only way to end the fighting is for there to be a winner and then we move on to solving the aftermath.

I swear I know I wasn’t here and no one wants to rehash this with me but does no one at all see how much worse this will make things? The other option was permanent exile and we didn't want to force anyone to give up their homes for forever so the month was what we managed. But then the Reds decided permanent exile for themselves so that's that I guess?

I made an art, I call it "History's greatest villains" For the non-wrestling fans, this picture was taken after Super 100% good guy Hulk Hogan turned heel and joined The Outsiders. I figured the two Varbani worked well as the Outsiders here both in a "there are two of them" and a "they aren't from here" level and that just left Hulk for Kasia. Obviously all of my "plop a face onto other picture" works are not high quality but this one is particularly rough because my computer is acting silly today

Teland posted:It sounds like Charlie Strand is using the Varbani to fight her battles the same way Choaneen tried to use the Dwellers. But one is putting in effort to prevent deaths and the other isn't. Without knowing what they're actually fighting over, that's pretty much all I have to go off of. If we could stick Strand and Choaneen in a room and let them sort out their differences without risking any other lives that would be idea. You are responsible for the death of anyone who dies today, hth

In case I die here, if anyone ever does make it to Riven, find the kids from the village in Rivenin I was defending when I was kidnapped and tell them it is because of Ciel and Pitzae that I am dead, and that my dying wish is for the kids to use the skills I taught them to avenge me by murdering the hell out of those two, thanks
