As far as I'm concerned, any new player who chooses to go straight is welcome in the game, and I'd probably be happy to assist them, given decent behaviour - without making slaves of them. This includes any disillusioned ex-allies of JTG - presuming they haven't left scents that get them off-line murdered. It does not include e.g. the members of JTG's community who attacked at least 2 players I know about, and possibly more. They have left scents, and if I were a bit more wealthy I'd be tempted to offer a bounty. Since most of us probably know generic Christian myth better than Scando-Germanic myth, I'll step out of theme and quote the Christian Bible - "Those who live by the sword shall die by the sword". There's probably also something relevant in the Havamal, both about sensible behaviour when new to a community, and like as not also about what happens when you ally with someone who is already intensely disliked by all his neighbours, some of whom are armed and dangerous.
