This is why I am so excited about the change in Pennsic allies.
The amount of -- and this is a scary word -- hatred toward the Midrealm
from some members of the East is just incredible.
I have seen young fighters being tight that Midrealm fighters are dangerous
and discourteous, and I have heard that from members of the Order of
Chivalry,
There was some real snack-talking on one of the eastern army lists prior to
this coming out.
I have friends all over the Known World and I always shook my head when I
said I was headed to a Midrealm or Calontir camp and got, 'Going to see the
enemy?"
