I was disappointed as well. Everiine had many many arguments over the commune aether when people suggested "We know what's best for them, bring them to Mother Moon anyway". He thought this was totally wrong. It was a great RP event in Serenwilde through most of it. Characters were thinking, questioning the traditions of Serenwiled, trying to decide what was "right" and "wrong". As a player, I loved it!

And then it ended. Both forests can still capture fae without punishment.

So.... what was the point of the event? To unleash a new aether bubble? They could have done that in other ways. Not that the whole event was bad, since I enjoyed most of it, but at the end, yeah, I agree, I don't get it.

Munsia tells you, "DAMN YOU."

Munsia tells you, "You couldn't kill fae when -I- was here."

Munsia tells you, "I wanted to shove it in Queen Maeve's face."

You tell Veradin, Munsia D'cente`, The Kamikaze Champion, "I could do it again if you want."

+1 for Munsia.

As a once-member of the Summer Court, I will spurn Laysus' attempts to work with me. Begone!

But I don't know why you're surprised about a number of us being bitter. Moondancers are bitter because of how this whole event skewed their RP, and we're bitter because of how little effect any of what we did had on the outcome. I still don't see what advantage we had in RPing this event instead of just saying "Screw RP, let's get the power."

It creates a moral conflict within Serenwilde. Do they disobey Maeve and the Fae for their own good, or do they do their duty and concede to the wishes of the Nature Spirits?

This is where most of the Glomdoring is. The event itself was great for the most part! But... the ending...

Okay, this is just annoying. Catarin told Simimi the reasons Celest wasn't taking the fae right then point blank! Explained in several different ways and not once was "preserving the alliance with Serenwilde" mentioned - however, "we're a bit concerned with the whole 'we don't want to leave faethorn, you're enslaving us' bit from the fae" did come up several times. And if that wasn't enough, there's a post on the subject clearly explaining it. So..yeah, I guess paying more attention IC and asking IC would probably clear up some of the confusion. You might also want to read the posts from a few months back discussing the exact "alliance" Celest has with Serenwilde. One wonders what precisely Celest would be trying to preserve.

It created a moral conflict in Serenwilde. Now though, things are back the way they were, with no complaints about bringing the Fae to Mother Moon. If they still complained, it would be more consistent and work better, but as they no longer seem to care, for the most part, the moral dilemma is over.

Unless there is still something hiding under someone's sleeve *looks up various people's sleeves*...

So Celest listens to the fae too?

Well, yeah. They're the fourth Commune.

Nothing we have ever done has been for our own good, from our perspective. Everything we have done was for the Fae, from our prespective. So, from our perspective, we were utter failures in everything we've ever done.

You say to Queen Maeve of the Fae, "M'Lady, I have been lead to understand that the fae no longer wish the protection of the Wilde nor Glomdoring in any way, is this the case?"
Queen Maeve of the Fae says, "Of course not."
hum

Which leads me to say... WHAT WAS THE POINT OF THIS EVENT? The Fae have been screaming about how they didn't want Glomdoring or Serenwilde to bother them any more, and so on, and so forth. Maeve herself said that they were breaking the bonds to be independant. Now, they sing the song, and Faethorn is back to the way it was?

Songs...the new honeycakes.

Since the fae of faethorn are classifed by celest as sentient creatures of the non-tainted variety, when they're screaming "we're being enslaved!" it's reasonable to assume that an organization that doesn't really want to be enslaving people might pause - assuming that organization is going through a less fanatical phase at the moment.

Obviously those roleplaying fanatics and zealots would do no such thing and would readily dismiss any claims that what they're doing might not be in the fae's best interests. The conflict prompts discussion, gives the scholars a chance to show off, forces debate on core questions and in general allows for more interesting RP than if the entirety of every organization were supposed to believe and act in the same manner or else be classified as "bad roleplayers who are deviating from their assigned script".

So you basically ignore what one of your 'gods' so to say wants you to do....tight!

Out of interest then if a commune takes a fae would you consider protecting the fae then as sentient beings as the fae apparently dont want to leave faethorn?

Or perhaps that point is moot now as apparently the fae may have changed their mind?

And in that case if taking fae is a ok then lady razial and celest would be fine with talking them from faethorn? Aside from political alliances

@Ashteru: You realize this is ooc right? Maybe you should look more into the supernals and their various decrees and Celest itself before making statements like that.

Unless you're just trying to be annoying, clever, snide, etc. in which case, carry on!



Dunno, there hasn't been enough revelation of information IC yet. Ask some Celestians IC maybe, see if it prompts anything interesting.

Yes Im questioning your roleplay out of interest, I understand this is ooc, if you dont want to talk about it feel free, Just currious as to the different roleplay reasons celest has concering the fae.

I was referring to Ashteru with that actually. Should have quoted him.

SORRY CATARIN~~!!!!
ME ish have mishunderstanding....<--feels like a bloody moronioc c-word right now---

Your damn right you told mimi point blank, more respect for it, but your not the only person she asked. I had misunderstood something of the event...
As for keeping IC attention... *Points to huge ass notebook with the news from every place printed and indexed* Umm...sorry I missunderstood something a disciple told me...forgive my insolence, yet again?
AND....yea so...umm...ofcourse you said, 12 times if I recall, about them not wanting to be enslaved... so I was just wondering about what future this would bring for the cherubs and whatnot...It wasn't like I was trying to start an arguement, but not I have to hear my Children and disciples ask me why I am telling them not to get fae, and my only answer is "because I was told to do so"...that kind of hurts.

love-mimi

I got one whole RP advancement bit out of this ending. It'll probably fizzle out two seconds after someone checks their messages, just like everything else done during this event. And then everything is back to business as usual, pre-event.

Meh.
