Oho, a treasonous bastard, am I.
Since I've decided that I most certainly will not be returning for 2k2, I figure there can be no harm in sharing a little thing like this for all my Dustariian buddies.
You know that time when Brad got in, and we didn't know who opened the gate? That was me. And that other time, when someone opened the bridge for Brad and all his cronies? That was me too. That other other time, that was still me. And that other other other time? You guessed it, me also.
Details of Operation Antora and the Samurai coup were leaked to Dante the day I learned of them in a secret conference with Dustarrian leaders. When the new bridge was incorrectly coded, and allowed non-Dustariians to open and close it, I alerted Brad before Kamuii. Looking back, I probably could have made a bit of profit off of that. Oh well.
There are dozens of other examples, which I haven't the motivation to lay out. My loyalty to Dustari had been strained for quite a bit of time, and I had very little to lose. I watched as I slipped from a position as one of the king's most trusted aides; briefly taking over his duties as king and recruiter on many occasions, to becoming a discarded member. I held the position of Magistrate --- supposedly quite prestigious, but with absolutely no importance. If someone had asked me what my duties were then, I could not have answered them. My military powers were relinquished to the Paladins, my government to Jackal.
This would not have been so terrible if there was anything to do. There wasn't. For whatever they put on their RP tests, not one of those *****s could RP for ****. The Royalty, and the Paladins. That was it. Nobody wanted to, or even could roleplay. Half the members joined for the apple bonus, the other for the tag. The only halfway-amusing aspect of the job was laughing my ass off while twenty members desperately tried to keep up with one invader. The risks of being caught were far outweighed. And besides, what was I to lose?
Sorry Kamuii, Barbarossa, Tupper. My sincerest apologies. |
