So people have been talking about all our choices regarding how to deal with the fae. I think no matter what we decide we do also need to consider something else. We need to consider how disorganized we are if shit happens and whatever we choose fails.

Whether we like it or not, this place is our home for now. I think no matter what we do next, we need to get more organized about protecting this place if shit happens. For all we know even choosing a peaceful option could lead to the fae invading later on if we do something to piss them off. We can all hope otherwise, but I've always felt it better to be strong enough to deal with whatever happens.

Okay, so I suck at this whole speaking on the network thing, but just wanted to know if there would be interest in forming a defense focused militia and what sort of skills and experience we have to work with. That and if there is someone better than me at leading and training people. I'm a good fighter, but I know that no one besides me could learn to fight the way I did. I'm also better suited for figuring out the best way to stab the enemy.

[And then with that he'll go ahead and end the message.]

I agree and there will be ways to make use of many types of magic. I've definitely found that the magic here is quite useful in the hands of a creative mind willing to try anything.

[leicesters]

Right! It's easy for experienced warriors to be set in their ways, but if we're a little more open-minded to the possibilities, who knows what's achievable.

Always have to be smarter than your opponent. That's why I got away with the shit I did back home.

[leicesters]

Oh? And what did you get away with?

[notquitetamed]

Oh just stuff like breaking into prison and breaking out some folks who shouldn't have been arrested. Just showing my face back home was enough to get every soldier in the area running and trying to catch me. They failed every time.

[leicesters]

So you're a slippery one! Duly noted.

[notquitetamed]

It's a useful skill. Means I can do well at slipping into heavily guarded enemy territory and come out unscathed and undetected.

[leicesters]

Just make sure you rein in those slippy slidy impulses and don't go busting anyone out of Camelot's castle dungeons. Might be hard to gain legitimacy for your militia if you make His Kingliness mad.

As long as his knights don't go around unjustly arresting people like the knights back home did, we're cool there. Catching the criminals is quite fun too.
