Deacon,

I must say at one point I chuckled while reading your last news post. You call Kerith "willfully ignorant and rude" for insulting Addama based upon his age. I see two things wrong with this. First, Kerith did not insult Addama, Kerith insulted his Targossan education. Second, not even one sentence before had you insulted be in a manner both ignorant and rude, by calling me 'uneducated' when you know nothing of me.

If you cannot meet wit with wit, reason with reason, and you must resign yourself to petty insults so that you might not embarass yourself, that is your choice, but I will tell you the same as I have told others. I will not have you cast aspersions on my character while you know nothing of me, as it reflects badly upon both you and I.

Still tired of this nonsense,
Ahmet Ter'sez
