Well, if a friend of the LKE was trying to condemn them, that would kind of defeat the purpose, wouldn't it?

Either side can twist fact.

This nation has of course voted against the resolution. If you have a problem with the LKE, might I suggest opening a dialogue before bringing a condemnation?

I can assure you the LKE Monarchy would never dream of twisting facts, I have the utmost faith in the integrity of our Royal elements in that respect. Now what you choose to do with facts in your own time is not a matter of my concern, but obviously in the resolution you have stepped outside of those boundaries and brought these incalculable matters to the world, and for that I say jolly poor show.

This nation has of course voted against the resolution. If you have a problem with the LKE, might I suggest opening a dialogue before bringing a condemnation?


I think you raise an important point, whoever you may be, my esteemed fellow. Dialogue is one of the great marks of civilisation, after all Parliament is from the verb parler which means to 'talk'. To jaw-jaw is always better than to war-war. And it's a fine shame that the possibly honourable Argentine Shroud has chosen to doff his anonymous cap, and hide behind fear and folly in his actions.

I would like to invite him personally to a meeting with me, to discuss the nature of his acrimony, and if any cure can be found for such an ailment. If anyone can resolve this issue through the fruits of generosity, it would be I, as I would have always been intolerant of false rancour. So absolutely we would like to understand your motivations, and help learn what can be done to prevent such futility in the future.

Of course, if there is more to this than the misrepresentation of historical events such as the Osiris liberation, or trying to blame LKE for invasions which it didn't even command, and which the vast majority of the Independent and Imperialist world have also fought in from time to time, then I would love to hear from you on this. Where there is discord, may we bring harmony. And where there is error, may we bring truth.

For the record, I have voted For on this matter, and heartily agree with Silver Shroud. Shroud, if you're reading this I commend you sir. :clap:

And before anyone one makes the accusation, no, I am not a puppet, just a user that doesn't make a point of frequenting the forums (until now).



By the way, I'm surprised this hasn't been mentioned yet but Cora II corroborated Silver Shroud's statements about LKE's substantial contributions to raids a couple pages back in this very thread.

"Condemn The Land of Kings and Emperors" was defeated 8,625 votes to 4,570.
While she had no regrets about throwing the lever to douse her husband's mistress in molten gold, Blanche did feel a pang of conscience for the innocent bystanders whose proximity had caused them to suffer gilt by association.
