[Discuss] Moving the Capital

[Jim Bowers]

I would like to say something about this. I am from LdB and have been there
for over 2 years. I know that we had been discussing on moving the capitol
for at least 1 1/2 years to Grehk. Not for tatical advantage but because
this is where the people had wanted it. For us it made sense. I could go
into detail why, but I won't due to it being my realm I live in. If the
second monster invasion had come maybe 2-3 months later our capitol would
have been already in Grehk. Then after the invasion there was a succession.
Once we took care of that we moved the capitol. Yes, there already was
tension with Riombara. I do believe that is was them that started the war.
(I could be wrong with that so sorry if I am). Now many months later, after
we took many of their regions and they had a succession, we start hearing
about it.

Yes we got lighting bolted for moving, but we decided to keep it there
because that is where we wanted our capitol. It was decided by a popular
vote, not just Nhoc saying so. Granted it probably does help us in the war,
but that was not our initial reason for doing it.

I don't speak a lot in or out of the realm, but I have decided to this time.
There are many irate people saying things and maybe they have a right, but
we have a right also. Thank you for letting me write this.
