[MR] Curiosity

Drea, was your question on the specific instance of Aveloc himself or the BoD's practice & methods in general?  

I think we have enough to keep our populace amused here in our own kingdom.  I really don't feel that it is chivalrous or honorable to draw opinions or place blame in an instance that most of us know nothing about except for incomplete, tertiary information we have received from biased parties.

The URL you gave is that of the Count himself, and really does not give concrete evidence of the BoD's proceedings or actions.  Is there a website or somewhere we can go to get *that* information?

YIS,
thyra
