[Nightmares of the Second Age] The Daily Scribe

More seriously, the Roseblack may not be more important than the Deathknight, but she is more urgent, so I say we deal with her first. If our counterespionage efforts are working well enough, he doesn't even need to know we're in the city before we're off again.
 
Damn it, I had forgotten about the Deathknight, it's not in our best interest to leave for the meeting with the Roseblack while he stays in Rathess, I'm sure the MoW has means to spy on us through this guy or it's nemissaries. I'll kick him off the city if no one else wants to, but we cannot afford him getting news of the Directional Titan or our dealings with Lookshy/confrontation with the Realm.
 
What makes you think kicking him out will stop him from spying? We have to be a bit more drastic to ensure anything close to that.
 
That would probably be a good idea. We also need to make some policy decisions as mentioned above, or at least ratify the ones made by the Lookshy-crew.

Letting him inside the city would make a spying job fairly easier, as opposed to kicking him out. But by all means, let's leave an envoy of the one Deathlord that excels at spying networks and infiltration in our territory.

That was not my point. My point was: "let's turn an envoy of said Deathlord into our pawn." Time to crank up the serious social-fu.
 
Do we even have time to deal with the Abyssal before meeting with the Roseblack? I would really prefer not extending the Abyssal's stay in Rathess more than necessary, specially when we're absent from the city.

Sherwood, a clarification of the timeline would be nice.


He can see most of what he would want to see almost as well from outside the walls of Rathess as inside them. And we don't yet have the manpower to guard the entire city sufficiently well.


I don't see banishing him as an option. The way I see it, we can (1) kill him, (2) let him stay, but keep close tabs on what he knows, or (3) try and turn him.
 
Keeping close tabs on what he knows won't be of much help at this point, I doubt he'll tell us right away what he has learned so far, and it's possible he has already sent that info to the MoW by now.


Because if the MoW hasn't received any info yet, this would be a good time to use Memory-Reweaving Discipline.

I'm sure he's sending regular, likely daily reports. Perhaps not to the Mask, but to someone close to him. And I didn't intend to find out by asking him, rather by spying on the spy. Also, I'm not entirely sure anyone of us has MRD.
 
We barely have manpower to cover our own quarter, let alone the entire city. Anyone care to join me in Chat to continue this?
 
Rin is going to be staying in Rathess for a bit. There are a number of improvement projects she needs to take care of. The work on the tram system, making sure the factory is operating well, fixing up the sentinel we found, engineering some sort of patrol/surveying robots, generally just making sure things in Rathess keep improving and getting cleaned up.
 
You have some time before you leave to deal with the Abyssal, depending on what you do. You can evict or kill him and that won't take long at all, or you can do some diplomacy and talk to him. Up to you guys.
 
Was a decision made on the chat after I signed off?


I still think the most efficient thing to do is find/fabricate evidence of his spying and kill him for it.


But I'm also open to diplomacy and trying to control how much information he gets.
 
Nothing was said afterwards, so the way of dealing with the Abyssal is still to be decided. I say we simply hear what he has to say, then kick him down a well to die as we shout "This...is....RATHESS!!!!"
 
Just hope that you come out in the inevitable fight later on better off than the Greeks did.
 
Any chance we could avoid discussing things in the chat from now on? It's a little hard to keep up with events when I'm at work when the transcript vanishes vanishes when I log in ;)
 
From my chat msgs earlier:


As a player reaction to DK is: 'ew get it away do you know the diseases those things carry'


As Rin: The only DK we know is on our side, but has told us about the things his masters want to do.
 
Yes, we really don't want to remake 300 with ourselves as the Spartans. :P


Also, the dude's protected by Sacred Hospitality. If we want to keep ol' Conky on our good side, we probably shouldn't violate that.

Conky?
