[Dreek 1633]

Goroth cheers in support of Hogarth

"'e an dizzeh beh da onleh uns whu benae stewpid! Dizzeh's alreadeh been keng tho, su lets giv et tu 'Ogarth !"

[Dizzy771 900]

*The crowds gather around as the lord Dizzy Irongrinder stands ready to address them. He clears his throat and begins to speak*

 

Ah come tu address ye tuday, not as o-lord o-Urguan, but as aneh ot’er dwarf. Now is t’e time tu strengt’en our people, tu bring true leadership forward. We must face aneh t’reats an ‘ardships to come and prevail, but we cannae prevail if we are separated. I can abide by t’e choice of king, so long as w’omever receives t’e blessing of the Brathmordakin to sit in that throne address the issues at hand.

 

*He pauses before continuing*

 

We are rebuilding. Our proud and noble race prospers once more thanks to true leadership and overcoming many hardships. It ‘as nae been easy, but we t’rive once mure.

 

*The crowd around him begins to mutter and chat among themselves, he waits to speak until they have quieted*

 

It is true, in toimes before we faced maneh challenges, we ‘ad slowly begun to sever connections with the rest of Ant’os, we were losing numbers. Our trade w’ere none aside from personal businesses of t’e more entrepreneurial individuals. Our soldiers, trained and battle hardened as t’ey may be, w’ere running few a spread t’in. Our religion, t’e ‘oly Brathmordakin, w’ere only followed loosely. Aye, even our women w’ere producing less beardlings. I ‘ave seen w’at ‘ardship is tu t’a dwarves, an ah ‘ave seen w’at it is t’at makes a great leader. T’e ability tu overcome t’ese obstacles and push t’e dwarves tu new ‘eights of acheivment.

 

*He pauses once more*

 

It is mah firm belief t’at great leaders not onleh overcome t’ese c’allenges, but are forged by t’em. T’e Brathmordakin s’all bless w’om ever is wort’y tu rule, not I. For t’at vereh reason ah am abstaining from nominatin a candidate.

 

*The crowds begin to murmer and whisper once more, quieting moments later*

 

Aye, t’is may c’ange frum now an tu toime fer votin, but it is clear tu me t’at t’e brathmordakin ‘as already set us on t’a path.

 

*Dizzy turns to Hogarth, a broad smile across his bearded face*

 

Lord ‘ogarth Irongut, ah ‘ave nae a doubt in me moind t’at ye will du an excellent job if crowned, it remains tu be seen onleh by t’a Brathmordakin if ye are wort’y. Ah wish ye all t’e luck in t’e kingdom.

 

*Dizzy turns back to the crowd as more whispers pass from ear to ear*

An ah wish all tu same luck tu aneh more candidates, let t’is be an election fer t’a ages!

[Daisy 9738]

*Lord Onar scratches his beard.*

 

Ah nominate Charles "The Bald" Ireheart fer King ((Toto798)).

 

*He then nods his head, knowing that his decision was wise.*

Fimlin Grandaxe nominates Thelkan Grandaxe 

[Josh3738 3137]

Lord Zahrer steps forward once more, all nominations but his own given. He gazes out upon the crowd of gathered races. He strokes his beard, clears his throat, and begins to speak...

((Normal Speech))

" You know lads that I have long been a lord of this kingdom. I have served under several kings. All were good, noble dwedmer. From my clansman Dizzy to Indagu. Finally I served as Lord Protector under Grand King Wulfgar. As the king it is a dwarf's duty to uphold the law and to serve his people until his dying breath. As king he is to defend his people with pen and sword so that our great nation may live on.

 

We dwedmer have survived much. We dwedmer have preserved our kingdom as a noble and peaceful land since the reign of Urguan himself. We have faced the onslaught of the races of Anthos united as one against us and stood high under the assault. From the Battle of Snow to the Siege of Indagolaf we have been united under one banner and under one Grand King.

 

Now we have reached a new land with infinite possibilities. In these dark times where Scourge freely roam the lands we fought so hard to claim, a strong leader was essential. It was in Wulfgar that we found that strong leader, but after setting us on the right path he haas stepped down in favor of someone else to guide us forward. As Lord Protector and Grand Marshal of the legion I have seen much and fought hard to defend our Urguan. Perhaps you would give me the chance to serve it better. I will be nominating myself for the kingship once more. And if I am elected believe me by all the Brathmordakin that I will not falter nor yield to the dark powers that seek to overwhelm us. Perhaps if I am elected, I will be able to bring Urguan into a peace it has not known for many years. May the Brathmordakin guide us to choose correctly these next few days."
