*Left at the notice board next to the guardian statue. Beldor himself checks on the notice every few hours.* Mayor Serena,
I am not refusing to comply. I am waiting for my concerns to be addressed, that I might have faith in complying. You ask for suggestions and questions, then fail to answer them and have them removed. I have no delusions that this public correspondence shall last much longer in proximity to the Dale, but there are those who shall see it before it is removed, those who shall see it elsewhere, and those who shall hear it by word-of-mouth by the very Elders I have already spoken to. I would say, in fact, that I am doing what I do on behalf of these other Drow and other citizens you claim to speak for. I am making no claims of entitlement, nor have I ever.
I am holding the Mayor of the Dale to her own words, and for that, I shall not apologize. I encourage the good people of the Dale to do the same, before their long-time allies, Drow or otherwise, are further alienated. There is no reason you cannot conduct these interviews as the individuals present themselves. Waiting until all are collected seems merely a reason to deny all those who turn them in, indefinitely. Many of the individuals listed there are quite elusive, so it may be months before they are heard from. Even then, there is no guarantee of when these "interviews" shall begin after the insignia are collected; who is to say that once in possession of them all, you shall elect to not conduct a means of regaining them? I am not the only one with this concern, and I am not the only one waiting to return my insignia for this very reason, I imagine.
Not only does a quick-turn around (return an insignia, interview then and there to see if it is returned) allow you validate just who is worthy of the privilege quicker, it encourages those who now hold them to bring them in, under the faith that whatever the outcome, it shall be expedient, transparent, and fair. If the validation of permitted persons is truly your concern, time-tested Hin-sense tells one to make hay while its daylight out. One does not let apples rot on the tree, simply because others have yet to turn red. Even if this path is not feasible, a simple, civil response to the suggestion would at least clarify your motives to those only more off-put by your budding heavy-handedness.
When you allay these concerns about your method, my insignia along with many others will be tendered in full, with graceful thanks to the Dale's new leader. All the same, I fully intend to cooperate with the Dale's lawfully, democratically-elected champion. But in all honesty, it's hard to have faith in someone who has shown herself as nothing but snidely bigoted in-person and unduly domineering in print. This correspondence, this concern, and these suggestions are not rooted in "entitlement." They are rooted in a deeply-held pride in the Dale and a knowledge of what it is capable of. It falls upon you as its leader to live up to that expectation, not on behalf of thankful guests like me, but on behalf of the very people you claim to represent and those who held this office before you. Whether you choose to seek a consensus or continue down your own path, hark well; your actions will be remembered.
With dutiful concern, warm regards, and earnest advice,

One of the notices is removed and taken into the Shrine proper to be hung up.

Scribbled on a note next to the sign:
The residents of Bendir Dale refuse to listen to reason. You'd best cut your losses and have your allegiance dedicated elsewhere.
