You'll probably notice Terentia isn't doing a lot about trying to stop this harassment/killing of her order members. Frankly, her ideals call for her followers to be militaristic. In other words, she expects them to be able to protect themselves. If they can't stand up for what they think is right, sucks for them. She's not a peaceful, neutral Goddess who sits by and lets people pick on her, but as of now this hasn't gotten to the point where it can be easily justified for her to step in and start being slightly more "helpful" without just plain interferring.
As a person, yeah, I know it's hard. Magnagora is really powerful right now and Celest is going to have to get a little more organized if they want to turn the tables. There's not a lot that can be done about it. I'd have to agree with Murphy; for anyone coming from Achaea to Lusternia and consequentially from a Mhaldorian to a Magnagoran, this is a nice change. For the people who play "good" characters in other IRE games, it's difficult. Sadly, people usually stay to one character type, so the "good" people who're used to effortlessly winning are feeling a bit down. But hey. Now you know how Mhaldor feels. =P

To get the topic I started back on track, I do agree with you on most of that (especially IC), because I'm pretty accustomed to being hunted relentlessly from the other IRE games, and I can deal with it. But I kind of imagined that you would be more...hmm...Tactical? The phrase that comes to mind is "Biding your time" or whatnot. I mean, sure, all this is character building, and it shows you who is truly dedicated, but to me it almost seems like throwing yourself against a brick wall over and over again to gain enlightenment.
Gwynn's commited for the long run though, unless of course they start targetting Lavenna over it (Please, please don't get any ideas...)
And also, to Murphy, you're dead right about the other cities having some good fighters, but like you and I both said, they're far too busy squabbling over complete and utter crap (can I say that here? I'll edit it out if not) to get anything done. This is why I hate democracy in Muds, people can be even more fanatical and stupid. Give me an ironfisted autocracy anyday
