With the state of things in this City, one really has to wonder

Berating me was the wrong thing.

[justawitch]

It was you, then.

[so_very_greedy]

Me with Cheza, you mean?

[justawitch]

I suppose that would be the fuss.

[lyra_of_dust]

You really think a leader could fix all that? And not everyone is doing all those, you know.

[justawitch]

Tell me, child.

Does the majority of the people here still act as if they were invaded just days ago?

[lyra_of_dust]

I don't know how people are supposed to act after being invaded a few days ago... but the relief, the need to celebrate things getting back to normal... that seems pretty typical to me. Do you think there's something wrong with that?

And I've seen what happens when people put their faith in a 'Higher Authority'. It just makes things worse.

[justawitch]

I never said there was something wrong, merely that it occured.

You all seem to jump to the word tyrant, when I say leader.

Bad politics SENSE TWINKLING

[againstgod]

Sounds very human.

There isn't need of a leader.

[justawitch]

You trust people to govern themselves.

You've too much faith.

[againstgod]

I have the right amount of faith.

[justawitch]

Too much, I think, if you truly believe people don't sometimes need to be led.

[mutilatedly]

what a revelation.

[justawitch]

Apparently.

[mutilatedly]

people aren't banging their heads against the wall in repentance though.

[justawitch]

I hardly expect them to be so futile in their action.

But, it seems my expectation are, on occasion in this place, far too high.

[evilsincebirth]

"New" leader? Is there an old one?

[justawitch]

Supposedly, we have six.

[evilsincebirth]

Oh? Hmm. They don't "lead" us.

[justawitch]

Hence, "supposed".
