'''Title: Deserving Power'''

'''Author: Isaac Norwall'''

In this world, it seems
power falls into the
hands of the charismatic,
the deceitful, or the
lucky. It never falls into
the hands of those who
truly deserve to rule.
Lord British was probably
the last worthy ruler in
all of Britannia. He took
action to get where he
was, and defended his
position himself. He
wasn't afraid to rule his
kingdom once he had it.
He never passed the
responsibilities of
leadership onto his
underlings... at least not
until the end.
The "Royal Council" that
he formed to take his
place before fleeing into
the Void has been nothing
but a mockery. They are
too afraid to rule, and
simply let anarchy guide
the kingdom they are
supposed to control.
Lady Minax would be no
better, despite her
obvious desires to take
control now. She knows
the people would not
accept her, but would
rather hide and let those
who do accept her rule
take care of things
instead of stand up for
herself and show her
power. That is probably
because she secretly
knows she is weak, and
only has control over
some others because of
her beauty and charms.

Lord Blackthorn, before
he succumbed to the will
of Exodus, could have
deserved great power.
Sadly, he was foolish, and
tossed it all aside for
his beliefs in Chaos.

Beyond the major ruling
figures of our world, we
have numerous lesser
figures. Mayors of the
various cities, whom do
nothing but stand around
and look pretty. They
have no right holding a
position that should be
given to someone with
real power, and who isn't
afraid to use it to get
things done.
The heads of the
Lycaeum, doing nothing
but making arbitrary rules
with no reason to back
them up, and only able to
'enforce' them because so
many blindly follow them.
The pathetic "High
Council" is only a facade
of power, only able to
enforce their will when
enough others actually
agree with them.

As if real, living people
with positions of
authority that don't
deserve them isn't
enough... thing of all the
dead who have authority.
People still follow Mondain
of all people, dead for
hundreds of years. Killed
by another who has
authority that shouldn't...
the "stranger"... a man
who hasn't shown his face
since he killed Mondain.
And then there are the
Followers of Armageddon,
who give power to a
spell! Not even something
that was at one time a
person! And they devote
themselves to this spell
that would prevent any
with actual power from
ruling over those without
power.

This world needs to give
those with power their
respect, and follow them.
Not those who look good,
or happen to be in the
right place at the right
time.
