Fine, that's fair -- he didn't need to. But it's an exceedingly common strategy, one that Elisa correctly predicted he would utilize. The point is that they understood he was strategically breaking the camp. Nocte did, because he told her. The rest of the group did, because she relayed the message.

This was not a case of the enchanter requesting unreasonable patience, nor was it a case of the group attacking the King out of ignorance as to the enchanter's plans. Literally the second the enchanter zones out, one of the group members shouts in capital letters to rush the King. Why the urgency, if in fact the group member believed they were in the right? Why the urgency, if in fact they did not know the enchanter would be back in an instant? The fact that he was in another zone is a matter of semantics. He didn't run to GFay and pick up IVU pots. He was working the camp. This isn't a court of law, it's an informal arbitration of ethics.

If the group's intent was to steal the camp when he zoned, then they never should have agreed to a deal in which he could have the next spawn cycle. But you and I both know that their intent shifted drastically when the King popped with the Mithril 2-hander. If the PH pops, the group abides by their deal, the enchanter holds up his end, and everybody walks away happy.
In agreement again, multiple people in the last few posts have stated that was the first problem they made, making some kind of "deal." Sure, the mith-2h changes things, they had been camping their for X amount of time, had to go to the zone to get two more people, and wiped in doing so and had to CR. And of course, there would be urgency. That might be his strategy, they might know that is his strategy, but he still, per the rules, he does not own the camp. Just like, per the rules, the CR'ing group did not.

I am not disputing the fact with you that the group was in the wrong, what I am disputing is your notion that the enchanter was totally and completely in the right and was an angel in this whole situation.
