Kez Azmoroth: Lay Low Your Crown

[Lefty 1696]

Igor speaks once more

 

"Yer Gold'ands didnae foite in teh war fer teh plain reason fer t'at if ye feared weh lost ye could easileh turn yer back on teh Kingdom n' git' away scot free, ye do nae fink about aneh'un but yer clan woile evereh'un else f'inks 'bou' teh Kingdom. Teh Kingdom will never beh w'ot it used teh beh as simpleh teh past can nae beh repeated, n' t'at is t'at. Sermons are still 'eld, mashelf n' a few otha's are clergeh members n' tehre is a clergeh meetin' t'is week on decidin' w'o shall beh teh new 'igh Prophet, aswell as a pilgrimage to teh shrines ye claim t'at beh "Non-Existant". Nae git'in yer own way is nay reason fer abandonin' yer Kingdom, mahself n' maneh otha's nay left wehn t'ings went bad, 'er wehn previous leadah's didnae listen, ah personalleh lost n' election teh beh King by 'un vote, did ah leave n' guh complain? Nay ah stayed, as well as maneh otha' dwarves. Nae'un is royal but teh King n' 'is famileh, simple as. Aye tehre beh noble clans but t'at means nuffin' but git'in respect. Ye see maneh old dwarves seem teh fink t'ey deserve our respect, such as yerself. Yet none ov' 'em 'ave earned it. Past deeds cannae beh rectified by doin' nuffin' now, if ye want teh actually do good fer teh Kingdom, do it. Ye dunnae need teh beh King to make change, 'eck maneh ov' teh know Lords did maneh great t'ings before t'ey were made Lords, yet ye wish teh become King suh ye can make yer required changes."

 

((My OOC part was no way mean't to insult you or degrade you and if it did I apologise, but I was just pointing out from our perspective OOC'ly on what your trying to do after what we have seen you do beforehand.))

[Fimlin 1997]

Thoak chuckles for a short time at Igor then turns his attention upon him.

 

"Ye may dredge up t'ings 'o tae past such as me becomin' Yemekar's Pick an' 'andin' 'oot off tae someone else, hooeva' tae only t'ing t'at caused my control ova' Yemekar's Pick tae cease was tae constant wars t'at T'orin put 'ur people throogh. 'Oot is a shame t'at most 'o 'ur lads ra'ter lust fer war t'an work, an' t'at is wot 'appened. T'ere was nae workers or nae real use fer a Yemekar's Pick at tae time. As fer ye accusin' me 'o nae leadin' tae Gold'ands tae glory, ye 'ave nae business puttin' yer face into 'ur business. We 'ave 'ur own reasons fer nae goin' tae war, an' t'at at tae time ye fought ye 'glorious' battles we focused on 'ur tradin' t'at most 'o ye war-torn savages destroyed. Fer me complainin', I only complain fer tae better 'o tae kingdom. I am sure t'at ye can agree t'at t'is kingdom 'is nae anythin' compared tae wot 'oot used tae be in tae past days, an' t'at nothin' 'as been done tae improve wot 'as been caused. Also fer ye an' claimin' tae teachin's 'o tae Brathmordakin still 'ur practiced today, t'en w'ere is ye proof? T'ere is nae shrines, nae priests, nae one t'at ye consider 'worthy' to take tae mantle 'o leadin' tae clergy, yet ye say t'ere is t'ose t'at still practice. If t'ere was t'ose t'at still practice t'an surely t'ere woold be nae problem findin' ye 'worthy' candidate. Fer ye sayin' t'at I 'ave neglected tae kingdom I will admit t'at I 'ave turned me beck on 'ur kingdom many times, but hoo' coold I nae? Tae lords dunnae alloo' ot'ers to take tae mantle 'o royalty. Ye keep to yeselves, an' surrond yeself wit' ye pooer an' just toss ye pooer' 'roond until 'oot finally circles onto some lad ye deem worthy 'o takin' tae crown. Tis 'is a disgrace fer t'ree times noo' t'at ye 'ave choosen wrong."

 

(( I was hoping that this wouldn't break into OOC but I guess it has. Of course this is a slap in the face, ICly and OOCly, and a power grab as well. Yes I have not been active for many months now because to be honest I just lost interest because between the time Dizzy and Indago were rulers nothing that caught me was happening rather than the constant PVP wars that happen. As for LoA you cannot honestly use that for I only spent a short time building on it, and spent probably 2 days actually playing on it since release, and that LoTC is actually doing x10 better than what LoA is now, honestly it all depends on how you guys as leaders of the Dwarves want to take it. I am sure you all can get new dwarves into the kingdom rather than mourning the loss of old dwarves and great figures that came into LoTC and left. Also you should keep in mind that this letter was completely ICly, I had no intentions for you people to get all rowdy and start calling me out for complaining, oocly especially. ))

((the problem is the new dwarves dont stay on at all 9/10 times they log off after somone gives them gear and never come back, 4.0 world will refresh us and let us be able to repair, and there is no good kings to rule us cause all of the elder dwarves left))

"Weh chuuse Indago as king, who er yer tu say dat 'is ruule is unjust? ah was der dur'n Thorin's rule but wot did heh du dat amde 'im so renouned an' betteh den Indago?, Dizzy's rule twas folleh, everehun knuws dat but Indago is tryoi'n tu centeh er kingdum, weh er nae surrounded boi enemies, weh throttle da road tu deh deserts wit' er capitol, der er vereh few toimes er enemies 'ad raided us an' got aweh wit' it, deh last fer raids weh ann'lated em an' deh uruks 'ave neva raided alune, INDAGUH KING!"

((why does everytime i psot a reply on my phone it repeats :I))

[Soggy365 162]

*Aldal Ireheart approaches the bickering dwarves, listening for a while before pitching in*

 

"Bah! Yeh cannae jus' come back 'ere after years o' absence an' declare yehrself a "noble", Thoak! There is nae such thing! Yeh speak as if yehr 'ave some roite teh beh deh King o' Urguan! No'un 'as that roite, 'cept fehr deh dwarf that deh public vote fehr as king! That dwarf beh Indaguh! Ah'll nae 'ear deh name o' mah kinsman denounced!

  Indaguh 'as done a lot o' great work, an' 'tis nae 'is fault deh kingdom is deh way it is. 'Twas in deh rule o' previous Gran' Kings tha' our kingdom started tehr guh down'ill. Indaguh 'as done maneh good things tehr 'elp save whut remains o' our digniteh. An' dunnae e'en start gittin' angreh wif deh Lord's Council! They were deh 'un's 'oo decoided tehr remove Dizzeh, an' they've been makin' some brillian' decisions! Yeh say 'twas Indaguh's fault Kal'Azgoth wus takin', but 'e wus deh one 'oo reclaimed it fehr us when yeh were nae 'ere!"

 

((No OOC arguments are going to fix this, so I'm not going to start one. Personally, I think it's great to see previous dwarf players returning again. This is exactly what we need; more players.))

[xSPULLERx 240]

Grand King Indago reads through the letter a few times, reading every word inscribed within the letter.  Thinking about the meaning, he decides to take the letter and fold it up in thirds,  Opening up his beard, he stuffs the letter inside it, and closes it back up.  He feels in a way that his citizens elected him to sit upon the throne, if a clan disagrees, they must hate the rest of his brethren.  Mumbling to himself, he mutters:

 

"Let t'e Gold'ands return strong, if t'ey steh loyal tu t'ere kingdom, it is without a doubt t'ey will be able to reform t'e t'ings t'at need tu beh changed.  T'ough, it must beh uv t'e 'eat uv anger, t'at t'ey 'aven't t'ought uv wehs in which gaining t'e respect from t'e dwarves around t'em."

[Serf 647]

Thoak nods slightly before turning and motioning for several Goldhands, including Kayne Goldhand out of the city of Kal'Ithrun. The several Dwarves would be seen carrying sacks filled with items, and rations as well as many various items that rest upon a cart that they wheel out

 

"Aye t'en, 'oot is obvioos t'at tae dwarves t'at I used tae knoo' 'ur nae longer. Ye lads 'ur blinded an' cannae acknowledge tae fact t'at tae kingdom 'ootself is flawed. Fer ages tae Kingdom 'o Urguan 'ave been kept beck from progress due to tis current system t'at was created in tae age 'o tae Ironguts. Unless ye lads truely wish tae change fer tae better, t'an ye must be willin' tae change, an' I dunnae believe t'at ye lads 'ur willin' tae change. We Gold'ands nae longer 'ave business 'ere in tae kingdom, we make way fer tae nort' tae live among tae 'umans once tae sun comes ova' tae 'ills."

[Kardel 1054]

Kardel replies "Dae kingdum dues nae need advancin', we need repopulaytin'! We need tae start smoll, an' den get large! Oaf course eur population be dwindlin', nae un's managin aneyfin! Youn' dorves leave fer udder realms bloindleh an' eur elders all be dead er un sum crazeh pilgrimage! Nedder, ah fink da ah moit actualleh beh un o' da oldest dorves left en dis land jos' because all eur TRUE elders gone! Dis be nae toime fer cunflict. . .we cannae let people decoide! Mah clan 'as dwindled doun tae a feu dorves an' dere be nae mure Noble Clans! W'en du we evah 'ear Frostbear', Iron'ut, Gold'and, an' Gran'akse anymure? Dese naymes be as ol' as da stoun beneat' eur feet."

 

"Nou, we yunite! We cannae argue, an' we shuud give oll a segund chance! Unbanis' da banis'ed an' let udder non dorves en. An' fer Yemekarr's 'oly sayke tayke back Azgoth an' get eur ancesters frum dere, den blast dat 'ol 'ole in an' fergeht eht! We need tae be mure social an' start traydin', sumefin dat stopped wif da leave o' da Gold'ands. We need tae repopulate eur 'olds. Vaer'ven fer un, an' barbek! We need tae ferget traditien fer un woile an' open up. We need MURE FECKHEN FEASTS! AH LOVE DEM KHORVAD-DAMN FEASTS, su du da beardlin's!"

 

"We nae need tae advance er rebuild, we need tae werk wif wut be eurs. We need tae give da dwedmar da feel we 'ad back ehn Kal'Urguan, w'ere we feasted toords da noight an' fought en da day! Fer Belka's sayke we need tae uapen Brot'els an' Taverns! Ograd'ad frouns on 'is guilds roight nou, we need tae recuperate! We cannae gu on wifout wut once was bare necesities, er else eur lads will leave an' we will be left 'ere to rot an' be old, as eur empoire falls!"

 

Kardel turns to the goldhand "Su, master Gold'and pruve yeself! Ye knoun fer yer foine tradin' tricks an' gold maykin spells! Ye give us wut we wunt. Ye wunt eur respect, dun be a straynger uapen un fecken Tavern, un PROPER tavern! Set up feasts an' all dat, mayke us feel 'ome! Iv ye as ric' as da tales say, wif all golden teef, den woi can't yer do dis!? Ye wun chaynge, mayke eht 'appen. Make da Dwedmar exoitin' unce again su dat lads travel from abroad ta eur cities fer fon an feasts!"

 

Kardel stops speaking, and purses his lips.

 

((I pretty much stated what I think we need in Kal'Ithrun to keep the new players and attract attention to us. If you all remember Kralos, the dwarven city was always bustling for two reasons: it was small and it had a brothel. Vaerhaven was a center of rp because it: is small and had a brothel. What I'm trying to say is not that Brothels make cities successful, which they do but that's not the point, but that we need some more exciting things in Kal'Ithrun to keep new players playing and all that. Items wont keep players on the server, exciting RP will, and what does everybody love: naughty, fast paced, amazo-ball rp! There, I said it.))

((yer reply is all but filled with good ideas and we are repairing our race, however i belive 4.0 will skyrocket da dwarves back to place, when i think of our new city plan i gte the feel i had when i first saw videos on Aegis, even though i wasnt there! Barbek is fine cause its so clsoe and we may attract the elven playerbase which is much larger at da momment, but Vaerheaven is 1. to far from capitol now adn 2. vassals leech rp from capitols, which is why Kal'Ithrun is small, to keep rp centered, barbek hold is fine, cause its so close, and like in 4.0 we wont have vassals and ifwe do itll be BEHIND the captitol's beautiful mountaintop, in the valley 

[Serf 647]

Thoak shakes his head slightly as he listens to Kardel speak

 

"In ways lad, I agree wit' ye, an' in ot'ers ways I cannae. 'Oot is true t'at we cannae alloo' tae ot'ers tae vote on matters t'at nae concern t'em fer tae 'ur confused, an' often times wrong. Ye must rely on tae king fer 'oot is sworn duty an' job tae de so an' 'is lords. Hooeva' we cannae let go 'o 'ur traditions an' culture fer t'at is wot keeps us toget'er in times 'o chaos, an' tae foundations 'o 'ur kin an' cousins. Ye cannae also rely on just feasts to keep tae kingdom runnin' fer t'at is foolish, hooeva' tae kingdom does lack unique shops such as t'ose 'o brothels an' taverns fer t'at is Kal'Ithrun's fault an' hoo' 'oot was built too small. As fer runnin' us Gold'ands runnin' petty business such as taverns an' such, t'at is nae 'ur job."

 

(( I wouldn't suggest counting on the new map to bring a race back. Thats what happen with 3.0 and in ways it did help the dwarven race, but not enough to fully get it back to what it was and it soon plummeted to what it was now after 2 kings ))
