In the definition a tyrant specifically means "one who has taken power by their own means as opposed to hereditary or constitutional power" so since my "power" is given to me by Talossan Law and the King. Then a dictator is defined as "one who assumes sole and absolute power without hereditary ascension" Since I answer to the King and the people via the Cosa... I can't see how either really fits, but then again maybe that is just me. 8)
Ironically both terms were positive in their origination in Rome and Greek forms of government. Having lived through years of tyranny under the Mad King Ben, I ensure you I am personally asking that proper respect be given to both myself and the position of Seneschal and the ministers of this government.

...close relation? What is the position of the King? What is the position of the Cosa? What is the position of the honored citizens of Talossa? ... Well, since you ask... While I do not speak for the entire Cosa, THIS member backs the PM's actions 100%. |

Still waiting for the CRIMINAL CHARGE that has been filed... Seems quite strange that it should take this long! Tony WeckströmPresident of the DPD Fax received. You also mentioned that I will be facing charges in the Talossan Courts. As an accused, I would like to know the charges, or do you have some reason to not disclose that information. Tony, a criminal charge has been filed by the govt but that there's no case unless and until the Cort accepts it, and then you will be notified at that point. Until this issue is resolved you are removed from your position as an official representative of Talossa. If the post is still vacant and the government fails to fulfill it's obligation to the cort, you may seek reinstatement to the position. |

Yes... I've often said that the Cort's motto should be: "Slowly but sur... no, just slowly."
Sorry Cresti!

Correct - simply a shameful system of justice! Just when is my criminal charges to be handled by the courts? As the accused, am I not even to know what I am being accused of? This is not a very good legal system we have, if the accused must wait and wait, not hear what he his accused of, and be fired from his job because of a criminal charge - if that was the reason. I still do not understand the reasons for my removal from offfice. All that was said, was that I am removed from office for CAUSE. What cause??? Kind regards, Tony WeckströmPresident of the DPD Yes... I've often said that the Cort's motto should be: "Slowly but sur... no, just slowly." Sorry Cresti! Dréu |

Kind regards, Tony WeckströmPresident of the DPD Are you so anxious to have legal action taken against you that you deride the very system than can save you? If I were you, I'd be hoping that if I was really quiet, everyone might forget about the charge and it would just go away. As for your dismissal from service, "your" title and service in general was at the pleasure of the PM. It was not your right to be an ambassador, it was your privilege. Who knows, you might earn that privilege again. But at this rate, perhaps not... Bottom line, the PM decided that you were unfit for service at this time. |

Um... no. This was simply a little joke I had with Cresti when he was talking about a Latin motto he wanted to give the Cort.
Slow? Yes. Shameful? Any Cort that has enough sense to condemn Ups Martüc is not shameful.

Still waiting for the CRIMINAL CHARGE that has been filed... ....and YES, I am anxious to know what exactly I am being accused of, and that would seem to be a right of anyone who is charged with a crime to know - of what he/she is being charged. This is outrageous, and strange that nothing is being done on the matter! Tony WeckströmPresident of the DPD Correct - simply a shameful system of justice! Just when is my criminal charges to be handled by the courts? As the accused, am I not even to know what I am being accused of?

I have been in dialog with Judges to be sure that the court is able and will agree to properly take the case. You were removed from office, really it may be the best action to take overall rather than continue to trouble the courts.
This is still in active discussion in the Kingdom's legal council.

Case of WHAT?!
What is the charge?!
Removal from office without even giving a reason, other than what you wrote "for cause", without explaining what the cause is, is no explanation at all...
Should not also the citizens of Talossa have a right to know why their Ambassador was fired???I have been in dialog with Judges to be sure that the court is able and will agree to properly take the case. You were removed from office, really it may be the best action to take overall rather than continue to trouble the courts. This is still in active discussion in the Kingdom's legal council.
