Well i have no idea how things can get so totally screwed up. There was this life and death tug of war it seems over the realm and right now I have no idea who to believe.
The buyer backed out. That is certain. One story says she is a cooperate pirate, a headhunter and was only out to take the people.. the groups. Another story is that she truly believed our realm was about to die and generously offered her sims for free if the people would come to her sims and settle to pay tier. She would give every race a sim and have free room for the guilds.
There was a meeting where some bad things were said of the buyer and someone took a log and gave that log to her. Now she will have nothing to do with us... or role-play or even anything medieval.
Who is right.. who can i trust? There is no proof that one is right and the other wrong that i can see. I expressed doubts in that meeting that i hadn't before.. Things didnt seem right to me..there was other partners we had not met.. that seemed an obvious source of uncertainty. Why was she cutting back and so very concerned about the money when she had said how very rich she was in the beginning.. but we didn't want to mess up the sale by asking her. They seemed to be legitimate questions to me... *sighs* These are things she read and things others said that were much crueler. I am surprised i am still on her friends list. I expect to be taken off any time.
Now we are being asked to commit to the realm. We are being asked if we will stay there to make the new plan work.
How can i make that kind of decision when i don't know what to base it on? I gave my word that i would stay. But i have lost several friends tonight.. and i am totally heartsick. I was never going to get in this kind of situation again.. and yet here i am.
My mind says its time to go back and deal with things in the real world since this is even more painful than reality. I just really want to disassociate myself with all the hateful things going on. I don't want to be a part of it anymore but i gave my word.
What will the wise dragon do? I have no idea. But i know she would probably fly away from all the accusations flying back and forth. But really there is nowhere to fly to.
As much as i can remember i have been taking my prims back. I got the mer sim, and the dark realm tonight... the quest cave that i had dreamed of so much.. Its all on a water sim and thus is slated to be dropped. Then i started with the old clerics guild. All the quest objects i had made for the clerics quest and the building that Wren, Alphonsus and i had done to make the little infirmary. *sighs* Who could have seen it would end this way?
I am half tempted to just take everything of mine, all the stuff on the weyr too. Just to leave the place clean of me and go somewhere to make a new start. In any event i wont be seen by those people who hate me now. I don't want to be seen by anyone.

Perhaps you just need a little time out. No-one can really hate you... because I know you and there is nothing to hate. It sounds like stress talking throughout the whole realm.
Perhaps time out from organising and just a little bit of wandering and visiting would do you some good?
I have been considering that, but with the changes in the realm i am sure i will be needed to help... perhaps, at least to manage the dragons.
It really is no fun to be caught in the middle like that. I tried to be as nice to the buyer as i could. I have a right to my doubts and questions. She was always nice to me and apparently liked me a great deal. I will not speak anything nasty about her even though its likely she no longer feels the same way.
Mal, I don't think anyone hates you. I certainly hope that you do not let that thought drive you away! Unfortunately, when you do the right thing, there will always be people who become upset with you.
I had not heard that someone gave the meeting log to the buyer - that was a nasty thing to do. I promised to stay also, bu tI will have to qualify that with "for as long as I can afford to"..

For good, bad, or ugly this will all resolve. Hopefully for the good.
I think we can agree that Triskele is broken now. It will not be what it once was again. It may survive, but it will be differnt.
The one constant we had was trust of each other, now it seems that is failing.
For my two cents, I liked the buyer. She seemed sincere. Then again I trust everyone.
Hang in there as best you can, but in the end do what is right for you.

Any more news Mal?
