It was. Utterly. And so far as I can tell there was precious little reason for the way the decisions were made, only that there were concerns about some that were pulled forth. Which shows a lack of forethought. You only make people your enemies by pulling that kind of nonsense.
[It was stupid, and Alucard has no idea why Goro's focus on Solvunn has stuck as hard as it has. Thorne would be much easier. Better. Get more people on board.
But he isn't, and Alucard can ignore the anger about what happened in that castle most days.] The issue is, of course, they frown on the technological advancements. So you'd have the same problem, but in reverse. And with less freedom of movement, as my understanding is that those summoned there still mostly reside within the castle, whereas here one can easily blend into the city if they so wish.
[Alucard's so wished it, even if he is not a subtle man in appearance or attitude. He is at least able to attempt to have a poker face from time to time, which Jayce...really doesn't, it is kind of amazing.]
The desert is vast as well. I enjoy the endless nothing of it, but it is a hard space to travel through. Always easier at night and you'll always ru out of supplies.
[Or you're a weirdo who becomes a wolf and goes feral every so often in the moon light out there.
Alucard understands doctor-patient confidentiality, at least. He learned from when he helped his mother in her clinic, although the term doesn't exist in his vocabulary. It is why he's never pressed Viktor for details. But then, he rarely presses anyone for details, so that it isn't done to him in turn.]
I wouldn't disagree with the description. [He breathes out, slow and steady.] But you should be cautious with who take your technology. People are good at finding unintended uses for things.
