"Thentis has once again gone through alot in a short time, in a few weeks We will have been a working living City for a whole year. What have We seen in that year, and where are We now from then?"
"When I first created Thentis, We quickly became a large City with more people then I can count. We routinly , meaning every night stood at 30+ within the City, and it was really hopping...but why was it hopping? Mainly because I allowed anything to happen, and I was so skittish that I refused to really get angry and put people in thier place. But as the year continued I learned that no matter what, people will not appreciate it if they feel you are weak. And I am far from weak"
"Where are We now? Well We cleaned house for one..there are those who spend the fifteen days to join Our City, then dissaper when they find out that We do not lavish them with thier own slaves and massive Power within the City" chuckles "But where is the honor in that? They join Us, then leave when they discover either a new 'character' or another Camp/City gives them a position of greater influance...Well sorry...just because you join does not mean you wll get More Influance. From My last count now We are down to ten Men and eleven Women, out of the ten Men, only half are around much..what does that tell Me?"
"Well for one it tells Me, that a few truly know what honoring a Homestone means, and even less care. Those that do Honor Me and the City..for that I would like to Mention My Brother Elrond Hell§pont. This is a Man that no matter what has always shown His Honor...He was given sole leadership of Thentis, not because he wanted it, but because he stood ready for the job, it was His intention to simply hold it till I got back, if I ever did. He recently relinquished the Seat of Thentis back to Me, and I know well the lure that such a Power brings, this Man..is what I feel means to be a Honorable Man, he is My True Brother and in every sense a Man I would fight to the death at His side be it in RT or VT HAI ELROND!!!!!!!!!!!"
"Thentis is in need of growth again, but at what expense? This time not at the expense of Our integrity..We will not accept Members for numbers sake. Our Webpage is the largest online, and the most detailed, go on look at the other Gorean Rooms pages and you will see. A Oath will be posted now on the Webpage which new prospective members will have to go through, once they are accepted to join the Homestone. From this point on ALL New Members will be put through a questioning by Three Members of the Inner Circle OR The Inner Council, Then if all is well The Circle or Council Member will bring the applicant to Me or the next higher Inner Circle Member to take the oath.
"Instead of asking slave observers to simply read the webpage We need to take a more aggressive attitude, take the girls in hand instead of simply leaving them to thier Own devices. That means everyone..I am tired of watching people have discussions and ignore the observering slaves, out of every four slaves We do this to..I am expecting one to two to stay. Slaves wish to feel a strong hand on them, not to be ignored....Let Us remember the reason We lost so many slaves befor...because the Men would ignore them...I'll not have this."
"We have a good chance to restart Thentis in a new light...We will begin raiding, and allow raids, We will be strong, and follow the ways of Gor the best We can. Thentis will become a Kill Zone, with all kills lible to either My or the Inner Circle's Reveiw. Slaves can still only be captured by Thentians. Free Women will be Honored and shown respect as long as the show respect to Men, the moment they are not they will be placed in a cage till thier actions reviewed, if shown that the FW is a trouble maker or this is a repeated case then she will find a ko-lar around her neck
"This is a beginning..there will be more in the future"
