Ah, but are not these sad times indeed when we have to learn of the whereabouts of one of our once so esteemed members of the council through a source so impersonal and irregular as the gossip columns of our local newsletter.
What can one say other than "Glad he didn't drag me down with the lot of them"?
It would appear the noble quest for integration of the kobold is at an end, for now. And the wait is for another brave adventurer to pick up the torch Mr. Baggins dropped when first disappearing. But although this wait may be longer than the time all those in the senate shall have to live, surely one day our grandchildren shall receive within these halls a man and his soapbox once again, to speak with such dedication of the integration of the kobold, and to finally see such a thing coming to pass.
Until such time, we shall have no way of ensuring integration will come to pass in such a manner that both sides will benefit, rather than harm one another as they would now.
My fellow members of the senate, we must go our own ways for now. Ye who opposed Mr. Underhill's KI plans, go with the knowledge that you have been succesful thusfar in your struggle, and plan for other attempts in the future. Those who supported the BYOB, you may leave in sadness, but never stop looking, that you may one day find again, when you least expect it,
A halfling and his soapbox.
Until we meet again.
Your chairman,
Legolas
