I left Dustari once when I was Prince, it was roleplayed, and over the threats Lance made towards Zormite. We worked it out and our reconciliation was also well in rp context.

Now, I wouldn't move a muscle over Zurkiba, let alone move a house. I have my plot of land, in the middle of nowhere with good fishing and hunting, and I am happy to retire there. I am getting too old for it all and I get good sunlight as it is, and I can cast a fishing line from my porch. However, lets not forget for a second, that Zurkiba is the person who when on many occasions was offered a position in Dustari said that "To be in a kingdom that was allied with Zormite made him want to physically throw up in real life".

Everything I have seen Zurkiba do, has been related to talking about his Glory Days when he almost took over Zormite, how Zormite is illegitiment and should not be allowed to exist as it is, and otherwise voice his contempt for the longstanding ally of Dustari.

The irony, is that most of his issues with Zormite, are based on ooc points of contention he has with their RP history, but can't seem to seperate ic and ooc feelings on the matter.

Without a public appology at the very least, letting Zurk in as a Noble of all things into Dustari would be like Canada welcoming a top ranking militaristic expansionist Soviet Stalinist who regularily called for the destruction of the US, into a high position of the Canadian Government during the Cold War, and then complaining if it bothered politicians within the US.
I can't blame anyone, let alone Zoe, for not wanting anything to do with this guy. Personally, I consider Zurk little more than a big talker who does little, and when things don't go his way he'll end up blaming Ed and trying to take over...again...and be exiled from Dustari...again. Then he'll tell us all how all of GK is hopeless and not worthy of his attentions...again...and get another 30 minutes of work done on Graal3D 2178 or whatever is grand enough to hold his attention next, until the next time he needs an ego boost and comes around to 'save Dustari' and get the neglected land he 'owns' back from whatever actual active noble in present ownership over them.
