Let us extend our thank you for your level headed response to Private Lockwood. It is a pity that the Watch is turning into a political vehicle for some people, while politics itself is not an issue--it reflects poorly when some claim to speak for the Watch.

If there are ways in which House Toboerski can appeal to the reasonable elements of the Watch, merely speak them. I see little reason for continual friction although I grow weary of blackmailers and accusations of attempted murder from Private Lockwood and Sergeant Marshall.

Forgive and enlighten me to any offense I give your own Watch as these burdens unduly distract me from a reasonable frame myself.

Sir Dungal

Dungal Toboerski,

I will be blunt. The Watch is not on your side. Our goals do not align, especially in regards to Lower, where it is increasingly apparent that you seek to accomplish something which many of the Watch find highly immoral. We will not assist you with your attempts in any form.

The only way you would appeal to the reasonable elements of the Watch is to put a halt to your plans, as well as to cease slandering our name. Naturally you will do none of these things, and therefore the Watch will be forced in the coming days to react in kind.

For that matter, my disdain for Private Lockwood should not be confused as my support for you. I pride myself on being able to remain neutral in enacting the law. But even I am inclined to disagree with your plans.

Sergeant Durris

I do not expect agreement. My plans are necessitated by the failure of the Watch to remain neutral in politics, uncorrupt in employment. If this argument was between a Watch that did not continue to allow blackmailers, torturers, and riot instigators to remain in uniform-my plans which are supported by ever stronger numbers in the Council would have no reason to exist.

However, it is these very actions that are being demonstrated by certain Watch members in response to my plans that are the very reason my plans are necessary and finding acceptance.

What I wish to point out is that after the election, there will be two Toboerski on the Council. This is a simple fact based on the massive support that we obtain every day the Watch further demonstrates its corruption and willingness to support the corrupt.

The only way you can oppose me at this stage, and I do urge you to oppose me in order to save the Watch-is to cull your herd of the corrupt, the reactionary, and the inflammatory. Single members of the Watch have no business using their membership for political jockeying. I'd suggest the Watch demonstrate greater discipline; remove the corrupt members who break our laws yet still claim to be capable of enforcing them; and if it must oppose my plans then do so with an official seal and silence those who are not official.

Otherwise, I will expect you to adapt to major changes in the way the Watch will be run in the future. It has become too political, too focused on increasing its own power at the expense of order. It has become a tool of interest, not a shield of the people.

In Regards,

Sir Dungal
