[Steppes] Moonschadowe Guardian

[Kaneki no Ryuto Akimitsu]

To all those who attended Moonschadowe Guardian:

One is glad to see that all are for our fellow countrymen in the Kingdom and
will defend any shire/barony/region from invasion.  One feels that one is
joining the right barony and Kingdom.  One feels that with out this vote of
confidence toward this barony, one would have questioned one's judgement for
many seasons.

One is proud to see countrymen taking arms against invaders.  Protecting the
solidarity of a place is one thing that has been long engrained in oneself
since early life.

To all those that attended and fought hard:  One gives his thanks to making
ones decision clear.


Humbly,
Kaneki no Ryuto Akimitsu

Come hither, my lads, with your tankards of ale,
And drink to the present before it shall fail;
Pile each on your platter a mountain of beef,
For 'tis eating and drinking that bring us relief:
  So fill up your glass,
  For life will soon pass;
When you're dead ye'll ne'er drink to your king or your lass!
- "The Tomb"  H. P. Lovecraft
