I request a serious and full answer
...if it pleases the involved parties.
I want to know what is seen in me that makes me a suitable candidate for such a position as Steward (beyond the one answer given by Jacobus). I truthfully don't understand. There are far better candidates than myself. I'm inexperienced and without qualification. I've done nothing spectacular. The previous Kaiser hardly knew who I was.
Who am I? What the hell made me stand out in this situation?

Re: I request a serious and full answer
Because when someone throws power your way, you don't eagerly snatch and use it, but ask why you are entitled to have it? Lack of megalomania in the Steward's part might actually be a good thing...

Re: I request a serious and full answer
It's a rare man who can handle power and not let it go to his head.
Re: I request a serious and full answer
Yeah. That's the reason why I don't want to be Kaiser (yet).
From a distance I'm concerned about the rampant lawyerism manifesting itself in Shireroth currently. A simple Kaiserial slap on the wrist or censure by the community should suffice. - Jacobus Loki

Re: I request a serious and full answer
So I'm Steward because I won't lay claim to the throne (among other things)? ...Fair enough...Ari Rahikkala wrote:Because when someone throws power your way, you don't eagerly snatch and use it, but ask why you are entitled to have it?

Re: I request a serious and full answer
Ypou are Steward because you are good, honest, smart, and because, long ago, I swore that you would be.

Re: I request a serious and full answer
Liam - you're a good person. I really like you. I understand fully why Loki made you his steward. And read what Ari said about you. You deserve to know that. Think about that.
I fully respect you.

Re: I request a serious and full answer
This is bizarre coming from you, Ayreon. Of all the Shirithians, you'd know least about me. I'm unknown enough here as is. I thank you all for these kind words, but I am still confused.
I mean, only my countrymen know what I'm like in Gralus and Toketi (and it's a stark opposite to my demeanor here...almost...). Prodigy pointed it out on the Toketi forums.
Perhaps I'm just thinking about it too much, but I still believe there are much better candidates than myself...

Re: I request a serious and full answer
I never said that, I just think there are better candidates. I can handle the job, I think.
