"If it wasn't a standard investigation, then just what do you suggest they were fleeing? What is it that you yourself fear from Lord Anstrum? He has done nothing but keep our Missalin organized during this war, and he's done quite a good job at it considering the circumstances. I know you to be a logcial man, so I ask you this, just WHAT exactly do you believe him to be doing that you would rather defect along with the other criminal paladins than follow his divinely inspired decisions?" Ulrich is utterly confused at Derrovar's assertion that Anstrum is an enemy.

Part A of the meeting:

Session Start (squall2551337:ingamechat): Fri Dec 21 16:56:41 2007
[16:56] *** Alllucky777s has been invited to the group chat.
[17:12] *** You have been disconnected. Fri Dec 21 17:12:39 2007.
Session Close (ingamechat): Fri Dec 21 17:27:08 2007


Session Start (squall2551337:ingamechat): Sat Dec 29 23:01:28 2007
[23:01] *** L17713ANGRYM4N has joined the chat.
[23:01] *** ForSovietRussia has joined the chat.
[23:03] theonecag: "Ladies, Gentlemen. As per the events of this afternoon, all warriors of Misalin have been placed in an awkward position. To say the least."
[23:03] Squall2551337: "Aye... things have definately gotten... complicated."
[23:04] theonecag: "Thus, we must decide how we are going to handle the next few hours."
[23:04] theonecag: "We must remember, that we are in a tight time frame."
[23:05] theonecag: "Misalin will grow curious as to the delay in the dispatcher's return."
[23:05] ForSovietRussia: "The longer we delay, the more suspicious Anstrum and company shall grow"
[23:05] Squall2551337: "Aye, Anstrun will be expecting a report from myself as well."
[23:05] theonecag: "And, tomorrow, a bishop is coming to teleport the remaining troops."
[23:06] theonecag: "Meaning, we need to come to a decision by then."
[23:07] theonecag: "So?"
[23:08] Squall2551337: "I say we have a few options."
[23:08] ForSovietRussia: "Well, what we do depends on you Ulrich, and the decision you have to make."
[23:08] Squall2551337: "! we can return, and play pawn to Anstrun, while still meeting in secret."
[23:08] Squall2551337: "2: we run now using the airship, and taking as many man as we can."
[23:08] theonecag: "I will play pawn to no-one."
[23:08] theonecag: "If I can help it."
[23:09] Squall2551337: "Derrovar, I am merely listing options"
[23:09] *** Laharl01 has joined the chat.
[23:09] ForSovietRussia: "Option one is a bad idea, bringing Derrovar and myself back to Capital City was merely cover for arresting us."
[23:09] theonecag: "Pardon me. Carry on."
[23:09] Squall2551337: "and we would only play pawn until actions had to be taken."
[23:10] Squall2551337: "3: Kati and Derrovar leave on the ship, taking some loyal men with them, and myself and some of the other commanders report their "escape" to Anstrun."
[23:10] ForSovietRussia: "At which point you risk being investigated using deception detecting spells"
[23:11] theonecag: "Well, I should point that I have no intention of returning to Capital City."
[23:11] Squall2551337: "aye"
[23:12] theonecag: "Nor should Lady Gant. What with us being "wanted", and all."
[23:12] Squall2551337: "Well, I'm somewhat opposed to option 2, for I'd like to be able to return home sometime."
[23:12] Squall2551337: "So I suggest we find some way of making option 3 work
[23:12] theonecag: "As would I. But by simply parleying with us, you put yourself at risk."
[23:12] L17713ANGRYM4N: *raises hand* "Um, excuse me"
[23:12] theonecag: "Remember that."
[23:13] theonecag: "Yes, Jens."
[23:13] L17713ANGRYM4N: "Well, assuming for the sake of argument that we do accept one of the 'get out of here' options, where are we supposed to go?"
[23:13] theonecag: "That should be obvious."
[23:14] L17713ANGRYM4N: "Naralan?"
[23:14] theonecag: Derovarr raises and eyebrow, and study's Jens carefully.
[23:14] ForSovietRussia: "That is not such a good idea. Nalaran has close ties with Misalin still."
[23:15] L17713ANGRYM4N: "Well, sir, where are you proposing then? Surely not Airindale?"
[23:15] theonecag: "Myself and Lady Gant were thinking, Blackbog."
[23:16] Squall2551337: "hmmm
[23:16] L17713ANGRYM4N: "In which case Anstrun tags us as definitely with the 'rebels', and all diplomatic options are off."
[23:17] Squall2551337: "which is precisely what I wish to avoid. Missalin, while under that man's control, still has valuable resources that I feel we should not give up if we can avoid it."
[23:17] ForSovietRussia: "He already considers us rebels anyway. Besides, don't you have to wipe out every Orc in the Fens to fulfill your contract with Caelothir anyay?"
[23:18] theonecag: "Well, Jens, there is no hope for diplomacy for some of us."
[23:18] L17713ANGRYM4N: "Ha ha. Very funny, milady. But those are good points, I suppose."
[23:19] Squall2551337: "Aye, but if even a few of us can keep face there, some good resources will not be lost. I'm thinking mainly contact with Narlan, as well as some of our spellcasting components and abilites."
[23:20] L17713ANGRYM4N: "And by 'a few of us', you mean you
[23:20] L17713ANGRYM4N: "
[23:20] L17713ANGRYM4N: "What of the rest of us?"
[23:21] Squall2551337: "well, my plan woud be that those of the Paladin order, as well as some mages would leave with Kati and Derrovar, while those of us who are members of the church
[23:21] Squall2551337: return to Misalin in order to keep an eye on what is occouring as well as to keep Kati and Derrovar informed."
[23:22] Squall2551337: *and supplied."
[23:22] L17713ANGRYM4N: "Hmm."
[23:22] L17713ANGRYM4N: "Great idea, but supply shipments can be traced."
[23:22] theonecag: "There's no need for tracking, they'd know where it was going."
[23:22] Squall2551337: "Supplies have been smuggled before, they can be smuggled again."
[23:23] theonecag: "Let me ask you this, Ulrich, what are you going to tell them when you get back?"
[23:23] Squall2551337: "I was planning on getting some aid with this
[23:24] L17713ANGRYM4N: "Oh? From who? Or are we allowed to know?"
[23:24] theonecag: "Easy Jens."
[23:24] L17713ANGRYM4N: "Sorry. Wasn't trying to be confrontational."
[23:24] Squall2551337: *scratch last three lines, Ulrich didn't end there
[23:25] Squall2551337: "I was planning on getting help with that, but my idea was simple. Kati and Derrovar were able to call in Jens, as well as some invisible aid, and simply over powered us before we could capture them
[23:26] theonecag: "What are you going to tell them when the fact that you healed me, several times during the skirmish, comes up?"
[23:27] Squall2551337: "My story does not last that long, and they will hear nothing of that."
[23:27] L17713ANGRYM4N: "He could just chalk it up to a last-ditch effort to maintain the diplomati option if it does."
[23:27] Squall2551337: "Or i could claim the need to question you
[23:27] theonecag: "Very well."
[23:27] Squall2551337: a cure spell costs much less than a resurection."
[23:28] L17713ANGRYM4N: "That works too."
[23:28] theonecag: "Indeed."
[23:33] L17713ANGRYM4N: "So. We trot off to a big stone deathtrap in the middle of a swamp, Ulrich and company trot back to the capital and pray their story holds under magical interrogation. Is that what I'm hearing?"
[23:34] theonecag: "Deathtrap."
[23:34] theonecag: "It's arguable one of the most well wrought defensive locations in all of Penthiae."
[23:34] ForSovietRussia: "Deathtrap? Blackbog is currently not a deathtrap, not since we cleared it out."
[23:35] L17713ANGRYM4N: "If we can breach it, so can Anstrun."
[23:35] theonecag: "The only problem, is that its a tad undermanned."
[23:35] theonecag: "Anstrun won't try it."
[23:35] ForSovietRussia: "And if he did, he would be making a massive mistake."
[23:35] theonecag: "Not with two airships, two high marshals, and the majority of the command squad present."
[23:36] Squall2551337: "Also, if the reports that I read were correct, it was taken with the airship that you will have."
[23:36] theonecag: "Not to mention, that he'd have only a 1000 or so men to take it with."
[23:36] L17713ANGRYM4N: "True. Speaking of which, did those already there get hose magical shields up and running again?"
[23:36] L17713ANGRYM4N: (*those)
[23:37] theonecag: "I would imagine so."
[23:38] L17713ANGRYM4N: "Huh. Well, it that case, maybe it's not such a deathtrap after all. It still leaves us with the problem of being more or less besieged, especially if Ulrich's facade doesn't hold up"
[23:38] theonecag: "Besieged, how?"
[23:39] L17713ANGRYM4N: "Besieged as in sitting there in a fort with Anstrun on one side and whatever the Fens have left on the other with limited supplies."
[23:39] Squall2551337: "Dear Jens, do you doubt your ability? surely with two airships and on the defensive you would have no problem
[23:39] Squall2551337: "
[23:40] theonecag: "Jens, Anstrun won't be attacking us, and Fens forces are far too decimated to launch a proper offensive."
[23:40] theonecag: "We are lucky, for once, in this state of universal exhaustion"
[23:40] L17713ANGRYM4N: "Imagine that."
[23:40] theonecag: "In that no one currently has the resources to effectively attack us."
[23:41] theonecag: "However, with the pause comes a time to rebuild."
[23:41] L17713ANGRYM4N: "So, if Anstrun won't be attacking us, what WILL he be doing about us?"
[23:41] theonecag: "Nothing, for moment."
[23:41] ForSovietRussia: "Fortifying his hold on Misalin most likely"
[23:41] theonecag: "Minor espionage, most likely."
[23:41] ForSovietRussia: "Hunting for more 'traitors' in the ranks"
[23:42] Squall2551337: "Which is why I suggest myself and Major Rowan return"
[23:42] ForSovietRussia: "What, to give him something to find?"
[23:42] theonecag: "I'm not so sure about that."
[23:42] Squall2551337: "So that we are able to keep track of who he is after, and to keep you informed."
[23:42] ForSovietRussia: "And what if he finds out that you are communicating with us?"
[23:43] theonecag: "Rowan still seems convinced that Lady Gant might have actually attacked us."
[23:43] Squall2551337: "Then I would be forced to run i guess..."
[23:43] L17713ANGRYM4N: "And Rowan?"
[23:43] Squall2551337: "That depends on what is found out. I'd leave her there if only I am discovered."
[23:44] theonecag: "Her faith, clouds her wisdom, Unlike Ulrich."
[23:44] Squall2551337: "For we will need someone to keep track of Anstruns actions"
[23:44] theonecag: "This is true."
[23:45] Squall2551337: "My fear is that if we all flee, then we will have no knowledge of his movements, and left unchecked, we will have one hell of a monster when we return to bring him justice."
[23:47] L17713ANGRYM4N: "Hell of a monster? What's that supposed to mean?"
[23:48] theonecag: "Well, it should be noted that we do have Kilar on our side."
[23:48] theonecag: "Who, as we should all know, is quite capable of espionage."
[23:48] L17713ANGRYM4N: "True. And how long did it take us to catch him again?"
[23:48] Squall2551337: "Left unchecked, he will merely continue to consolidate his power, converting more people to his side, as well as removing the "traitors".
[23:48] L17713ANGRYM4N: "Quite a while, wasn't it?"
[23:49] ForSovietRussia: "Kilar is still in no condition to perform any espionage however, but he is recovering."
[23:49] theonecag: "There's nothing we can do about that Ulrich."
[23:49] L17713ANGRYM4N: "Can't we? Ulrich's got healing magic the likes of which I've never seen before."
[23:49] Squall2551337: "however, with myself and possibly another in Misalin, we might be able to warn some of the "traitors" and help them get away."
[23:49] theonecag: "In the eye of the Public, he is divine prophet, coming to lead the people back to the path of righteousness."
[23:50] Squall2551337: "Well, we might also be able to spread rumours as well."
[23:50] theonecag: "I understand that what I'm about to say may seem crazy, but, for the moment, we need to ficus our efforts elsewhere"
[23:50] theonecag: "We need to build alliances."
[23:51] L17713ANGRYM4N: "With who, is the question."
[23:51] Squall2551337: "Aye, I will agree with you there. We will need all the help we can get."
[23:51] theonecag: "Something, which as traitors of Misalin, we are in dreadful lacking thereof."
[23:52] L17713ANGRYM4N: "Well, let's start with the obvious. Who are Anstrun's known allies?"
[23:52] Squall2551337: "Currently strong with Archeron, as well as decent with Narlan."
[23:52] theonecag: "There will be time for this specific discussion later. For now, let us focus on the immediate future."
[23:52] ForSovietRussia: "The rest of the Proclaimers, obviously. The people seem to support him. I don't know of the Sacred Kingdom's stance on him yet."
[23:53] theonecag: "Such as who's going where."
[23:53] Squall2551337: "The question seems to be Miss Rowan."
[23:53] Squall2551337: "Corric seems like he should go with you, as well as Aelle."
[23:54] theonecag: "Well, we had choose to have this closed session first for a reason."
[23:54] theonecag: "We will explain our plans to them after we done."
[23:54] Squall2551337: "I'd honestly rather not return alone, and Major Rowen would be the most likely to return with me to make my story hold true. Mainly due to the fact that I can't explain her absense."
[23:54] theonecag: "Then, we will give them a choice."
[23:55] Squall2551337: "Aye it will be their choice, but I feel that we should have a preference to propose."
[23:55] L17713ANGRYM4N: "Well, Ulrich, you were concocting a story about being overpowered, were you not?"
[23:55] Squall2551337: "Aye Jens, why?"
[23:55] L17713ANGRYM4N: "If she goes absent, tell them she sustained injuries for which she was still being treated here in Archeron."
[23:56] L17713ANGRYM4N: "Would that work?"
[23:56] Squall2551337: "That would not be believed I'm afraid, As you said yourself, I have a wide array of healing, and she would probably be the first to recieve it should the story have been true."
[23:57] L17713ANGRYM4N: "Ah, yes. That's right."
[23:57] Squall2551337: "Also, there are many more clerics back in Missalin where she would recieve better care."
[23:57] L17713ANGRYM4N: "Plan B then...... What is Plan B?"
[23:57] Squall2551337: "And I do not believe I could convince them that she was captured."
[23:58] theonecag: "It appears then, Ulrich, that if you are returning, you do so alone."
[23:59] Squall2551337: "You are not confident enough to send her back with me?"
[23:59] Squall2551337: "If so, then what story do I tell to explain her absence?"
[23:59] theonecag: "Personally, I rather you came with us Blackbog. As I'd be rather surprised if Kovis didn't have eyes of his own back in Capital City."
[00:00] Squall2551337: "This is true, I had not taken Kovis's current spying into account..."
[00:01] L17713ANGRYM4N: "Here's another thing. Ulrich, you're a Cardinal. That's a damn high rank. When the people get wind of a man with that kind of brass defecting, just think what it'll do to Anstrun's propaganda machine."
[00:01] theonecag: "We do have reason to believe that he used operatives to ensure that the most State-Loyal troops were sent with us."
[00:02] Squall2551337: "Jens, I agree with you wholeheartedly, however, I would hope to make a bigger show of it from back home, rather than defecting from the battle field hundreds of miles away."
[00:02] L17713ANGRYM4N: "With no guarantee you'd even make it a hundred paces doing that in the capital."
[00:03] L17713ANGRYM4N: "Unless you have some guarantee of which I'm not aware?"
[00:03] Squall2551337: "I have faith in myself and my abilities. Especially if I'm able to get backup from your Kovis, or if I can manage untill Killar gets back in action."
[00:03] ForSovietRussia: "You attempt to defect in the capital, the inquisitors will be on you in seconds Ulrich. You would never make it out"
[00:04] Squall2551337: "I wouldn't be so stupid as to do it in the CAPITOL."
[00:04] Squall2551337: "but better from within the country then from the front lines. Especially if I'm able to leave a message to remember me by."
[00:06] L17713ANGRYM4N: "Oh dear. I'm almost afraid to ask, but what kind of 'message'? Not something I'd have cooked up, I hope?"
[00:06] Squall2551337: "I haven't figured it out yet. but something to get the public thinking about ballance of power."
[00:07] Squall2551337: "Mayhap something about the right to question the government."
[00:07] theonecag: "If only."
[00:08] L17713ANGRYM4N: "What do you mean?"
[00:09] theonecag: "I simply mean that I doubt that the Misalin citizenry is prepared to take such a step."
[00:09] theonecag: "Not when the need to cling to their prayers is ever more strong."
[00:10] L17713ANGRYM4N: "Good point."
[00:10] Squall2551337: "Mayhap not, but hopefully, I might be able to undermine Anstrun in some way with my leaving."
[00:10] Squall2551337: "moreso than from out here."
[00:11] theonecag: "True. Perhaps by returning, then leaving after a while, saying that in leaving that your reasons are his policies, may weaken his grasp."
[00:11] L17713ANGRYM4N: "Maybe so. I just hope that kind of thing doesn't get out of hand. You know what they say about schism breeding schism..."
[00:12] Squall2551337: "Well, I hope it might bring more attention than defecting from the front lines, which could be misconstrued for a multitude of reasons."
[00:12] theonecag: "Well, I can't say that I'd be terribly unhappy if a few more good soldiers schismed over to us."
[00:13] Squall2551337: "Aye to that."
[00:15] Squall2551337: "As for a plan B, I have no idea. I would like to get to the keep with you, but I fear that we do not know enough of Kovis's troops to afford to leave Anstrum alone."
[00:16] theonecag: "If I'm correct, there are approximately one thousand soldiers present."
[00:16] theonecag: "Lady Gant?"
[00:17] *** ForSovietRussia has left the chat.
[00:17] *** ForSovietRussia has joined the chat.
[00:24] ForSovietRussia: "The current garrison at Blackbog is around one thousand troops loyal to Kovis and Cary, in addition they also have two Sky Galleons...
[00:24] ForSovietRussia: The third is the one under my command, and the fourth remains guarding Capital City and is crewed by troops loyal to Astrum."
[00:25] L17713ANGRYM4N: "Huh. Three out of four. Not bad, I think."
[00:25] theonecag: "Well, we all know what one of those ships is capable of."
[00:25] Squall2551337: "Yeah, And thanks to Jens here, we might have a blasting advantage as well."
[00:26] L17713ANGRYM4N: "And there's no way their one ship can dodge us all."
[00:26] ForSovietRussia: "And we also know what they are vulnerable to."
[00:26] theonecag: "Imagine three, then imagine any attempt at throwing troops at us."
[00:27] L17713ANGRYM4N: "So, basically, what you're saying in that the Order controls the proverbial meat grinder and Anstrun, if he has any brains at all, knows it."
[00:27] Squall2551337: "To be blunt, yes."
[00:29] *** L17713ANGRYM4N has left the chat.

DM Note: I was not expecting you guys being so prompt in having this meeting, gotta commend you for it. I didn't even have time to look at it until recently. My trip to China meant I was unable to run the NPCs, but I figure some of you already have a good feel of their loyalties (which seems to be right) and frankly, they don't have too many ideas in a meeting like this. However, there are a few things I'd like to point out (the NPCs would either way, since this is common knowledge):

1. The Misalin Guard does not 'supply', it is well known for being able to operate without supplies. In case you forget, divine creation spells goes a long way and IS after all, the primary method of food production in Misalin, thus it can be done anywhere. Whether Cary/Kovis secured enough Clerics and Archivists for that is something you'd have to ask them. Since the army needs to repair equipment as well as forge new ones, a good quantity of smiths and other technicals travel with the army so production of arms, armor, clothing, etc is brought along. The ONLY thing that the Guard need supplying are wants/desirable but not neccessary goods, like booze, from rear line industries.

2. Unless you forget, one of the inquisitors did escape, and most likely brought news of a good portion of what happened to Anstrun's ears already.

3. Archeron/Misalin relations are never that good. Matter of fact these two ONLY band together in times of need for the souther alliance, because Misalin has a history of standing on the Airindale side. Of course, despite this Airindale still maintains a cool atitude towards Misalin (but far from downright hostile like with Archeron). On the other hand, Misalin/Naralan relations have been solid and well achieved.

4. One should keep in mind of the Sacred Kingdom's firepower as demonstrated in Winchester. Whether of not their atitude towards Anstrun will bring forth such a hammer of god, and whether of not their energy attacks may breach the wards of Blackbog.

ok I realize that you guys have already discussed this matter and come to a conclusion and asking you to RP the whole thing when you already reached the result may become quite utterly boring, so...

if you can giveme a general summary of what discussions/conclusions you guys HAVE reached and any other details you think I should know (including objections, worries, things-you-might-want-to-do, etc etc), be great.
