[Steppes] Disturbing behavior

[Mordock von Rugen]

Hey, Almarr - this would have been better done in private.  I feel like I've
been scolded for something I didn't do....

Moreover, you're responding to a "disturbing story you heard" - i.e. a
rumor.  Those are usually not good things to respond to publically, anyway.
Second hand, third hand, etc accounts can deviate pretty far from what
others remember happened.  If you're hearing it from the fighter himself,
keep in mind that his perceptions may not match the perceptions of the other
parties involved....

Glad to hear this new fighter is continuing, though.
