You say 'Can you tell me who you are? Who Merlyn is?'.
Krogenar listens.
You raise your eyebrow at Merlyn..
Merlyn says 'I am Merlyn, a servant of Cyric and leader of cyrics elite army, ebon spur'.
You say 'What is the 'Ebon Spur'?'.
Merlyn says [OOC] 'correct my spelling if i type something wrong, english isnt my native
language'
You nod..
You say [OOC] 'No worries...'.
Merlyn says 'Ebon spur is group of cyrics elite fighters, mercenaries, gladiators and striders'.
Merlyn says 'We do all the dirty work for the clan'.
You say 'What do you mean by 'dirty
work'?'
Merlyn says 'basicly, we do what cyric wants us to do, if he wants us to do suicide attack against mystran army to mislead them, we will do
it'
You nod.
Merlyn says 'so the wizards and priests have time to do their
job'
You say 'What kind of master is Cyric?'.
Merlyn says 'hmm...Cyric is very cruel
master'
You raise an eyebrow at the notion..
You say 'Why do you follow him, then? Are you a willing member of his Church?'
Merlyn says 'yes, i follow him willingly of course, thats what i have done my whole life, tasks he gives us are complicated and dangerous'.
Merlyn says 'but reward is also awesome if we succeed'.
You say 'Can you tell me about a mission?'
Merlyn says 'we exists to spread strife and our lords glory, Cyric has more than once showed that is the god above all other gods'.
Merlyn says 'you should read the cyrinishad to understand'
Krogenar backs away....
You shake your head..
You say 'No thank you.'
Merlyn smiles happily.
You say 'Have you read it?'
Merlyn says 'Yes'
You say 'Can you tell me about
it?'
Merlyn says 'Cyrinishad tells you about true life of Cyric'.
Merlyn says 'cyric was once a mortal'.
Merlyn says 'that book tells a story about his heroic acts on mortal plane'.
Merlyn says 'and how he became a god'
You say 'Heroic?'.
Merlyn says 'yes'
You say 'How is Cyric a hero?'.
Hmmm you looked puzzled? Something wrong?.
Merlyn says 'Well, if some mortal succeeds to become an immortal in short time, i would call that heroic action?'.
You shake your head..
You say 'Did he serve others? Protect the innocent?'.
You say 'Or did he just grab at power?'.
Merlyn says 'Do you know that your god and cyric once traveled together while they were still mortals?'.
You nod..
You say 'I know Midnight and Cyric knew each other.'.
Merlyn nods.
You say 'But that doesn't make Cyric a mortal hero.'.
You say 'He was mortal - but I doubt he was a hero.'.
Merlyn says 'cyric was one of the group of heroes who retrieved Ao's tablets of faith'.
Merlyn says 'and he also slayed a god as a mortal'.

You say [OOC] 'Will they force you to delete?'.
You say [OOC] 'If they discover that you have an alt in another clan?'.
Merlyn says [OOC] 'our leaders will post note to cyric who will handle character wiping'.

Merlyn says [OOC] 'nobody forces you to join us'.
Merlyn says [OOC] 'of course our policy is join or die, but still :p'.
You say [OOC] 'Has this policy worked for your clan, do you think?'.

Merlyn says [OOC] 'and good sense of humor helps, our clannies can sometimes be very rude to each others'.
