The behaviour expressed by some in this thread is abhorrent. Someone leaves on a critical note and too many people respond by making horrible remarks, non constructive criticism and insults. If this person is leaving as a result of having all their progress shattered to pieces, then they obviously have cause to be bitter. If you can honestly objectively look at it; both sides believe they are fighting on the right side and for any to feel like it is necessary to leave as a consequence of losing everything, it should be handled with a bit of empathy and sensitivity. It should be the duty of Illyriad's community to make sure that this departing isn't an excuse to kick someone while they're down. Even enemies can show respect. Congratulations to those who actually managed to say goodbye like a decent person.

*Takes a good look at the huge list of alliances NOT involved in the war*
What the others said Afaslizo is correct ... what exactly would really be your problem in finding a peaceful alliance .?. I propose you stay in the game and join Tranquil Vision or any other peace-dedicated alliance ... they are really nice people and need friendly and experienced players like you. :)
Or a trading alliance ... or a training alliance ... or or or ... so many options, so many peaceful things to do ! :)

If you didn't like the war aspect you could have just exodused your towns to the corner of the map and lived "peacefully", very simple...

In war there are rules, in politics however, there are no rules.

I see the war as no reason to quit.. Message the leaders and ask terms for them to allow you to exit the war. Simplez?
Sorry to see you go regardless.

Would have been welcomed in the Crows if he had not participated in the war himself.
There are also plenty of other neutral alliances, or he could have merely left VicX, however I expect that he took an active role and therefore has been facing some vengeance from H.

I am sorry to see you go Afas. I have known you as a friendly player and remember the kindness you have shown to new players. Frequently after a new player popped up in chat they would say "what does it mean my farms are more productive?" and I would explain that a Gift spell had been cast -- and almost every time it was Afaslizo.
You will be missed.
