"Pittians! Gather for a meeting!"
Gael stood patiently, golden-hazel gaze level on the gathering crowd. "Let me begin by making something very clear."
"There is a time and place for open forum." The faerie had made it very apparent he would listen to his clanmates, but there was a limit to the appropriateness. "And that place is not on the border, in front of a stranger who leads an unknown faction."
He inclined his head -- his point plain as daylight. It should not take a genius to recognize the fault in sowing discord in front of an unknown party. "Now you know well, I have no interest in silencing your voices. I will always hold open discussions on important matters. But they will be done in the proper time and place. Is that understood?"
The vulpine would remain quiet a moment, his eyes filled with ice; patient as he allowed the words to settle.
"It is my personal belief a leader should be open and clear." Others may do it differently, but Gael never truly followed someone until he understood them -- knowledge was power. "So I will explain how I plan to approach political dealings."
"The Pitt was established on a foundation of trust and loyalty; in each other." And no one else. "No official alliances, nor even enemies -- our neighbors were open game to both harm, or trade."
"While I support these founding ideals, I am not wholly against the idea of an alliance, should everyone agree to such a thing -- but it will never come without first establishing a neutral relationship of mutual benefit."
"I hardly expect everyone here to agree with me." The Ardent hardly wanted to lead a herd of sheep, after all. "But you stand to gain more from knowing, than committing yourself to reckless deals."
"Any questions before I continue on?"
♛ GAEL Ó BROIN
There is disappointment in the vulpine's cold eyes as he padded up to the 'throne' -- stronger than any irritation he may hold. He had a great deal to make clear, it would seem."Pittians! Gather for a meeting!"
