*Large posters are displayed across Athera, a type of print not seen publicly displayed for ages past, it is a poster bearing the seal of the Grand Kingdom.*

 

The Grand Kingdom. A beacon of hope for those who once wished to be Free. Free from tyranny, Free from having one culture imposed upon another, Free from slavery, Free from invasion.

 

This Kingdom has long been caught in wars to ensure the Freedom of others, and itself. Nearly all, if not every war fought by the Grand Kingdom was for this right.

 

In fear of defeat many have betrayed this nation, preferring to run, and hide than to give their lives in the name of their country which such a nation tries so dearly to assist.

 

Subjugation. A hated word for dwarves. A word more despised than Iblees.

 

This is the cry of war the opposing power of Oren now shouts openly.

 

When an Orenian king now dead wished to "liberate" the north, it was suspected that the Orenians sought to imperialize Athera, and suppress Yemekar’s children. Yet dwarves held more faith in the hearts of men.

 

The past peace terms were accepted by the Kingdom once Hiebenhall was stolen, but Oren could only refuse to halt its attack.

 

And still, it was not seen as serious as it is now.

 

As events unfold, recent talk of Oren is that they have only two more races to subjugate.

 

Yes, two more races, for the elves had shattered before Oren, and now the dwarves and orcs stand as the last free nations, a final defence against the scourge.

 

The dwarves, a nation that throughout ages past had fought in the protection of a fair and just political order.

 

And now they are exposed. The last bastion of freedom within Athera, the last hope for a world unbent and unbroken.

 

If one falls, so does the other. So do we all.

 

Know that despite its words, Oren’s only cause as of this day is imperialism. To dominate the world, and impose upon all races and people a religion used as an excuse to slaughter those who do not hold their God in such a high regard.

 

The excuse, they say is that the dwarven nation declared war on Akovia. Yet, they enact their wrath on a government who did not stand when such an act of war was taken. And now, Oren chooses to protect and harbor corruption within its very borders, those who had aligned with its enemies during Oren’s schism war.

 

What is there to do? Mayhaps you are locked tight within someone’s grip? It matters not, you have but one day to change it all.

 

THE FREE ATHERA must join together, must march together, and must repel this power who desires the destruction of our homes, and families.

 

The plea is to you, to the world.

 

The Dwarves are ready. The dwarves will fight for their freedom, but will you Fight for the Freedom of which you so rightfully deserve?

*Fili nods after reading the poster. He leans on his great sword and looks at the others reading for any hint of emotion, or drive to assist in the plight.

[Quartzen 13]

Alfar Svane scoffs, seeing as how one of the civilians of Diamant was snatched off the road and beaten by dwarves, and only days earlier, Diamant had been raided by the same. The Dwarves desired his city. And they called Oren imperialists. He then readied his soldiers for upcoming battles.

[Maletone Blazebeard (Aqua) 130]

*Maletone lets out a heavy sigh*

"I will die before Oi see Oren take meh Honor and tae Justice o' my Bretheren."

[~ Fiend ~ 611]

"Narvak oz Annbella," Isabella mutters bitterly.

[Heff 2460]

has the sudden urge to grow a beard

[spartanred 58]

Heus clasps his hand over his heart, grinding his teeth

 

"T'ose bastards uf oren will nae wipe us out. We've proved tha' toime 'n toime again! Now, weh must band togethah tah defeat the spread uf oren intuh free lands!"

 

"Oren, 'nce suh humble, now falls tae greed 'n the breaking of their honor."

 

"NARVAK OZ URGUAN!"

[ThumperJack 927]

Demagol glances at a suit of armor lying inside his clan hall, letting off a deep sigh, thinking back to what Bastion had said to him earlier.

 

"..Jus' ah lil' longeh.."

 

He strides over to the armor, strapping it himself, staring at his sword "May Dormmar guide meh in t'is effor'."

[Alakabam 582]

(( Do you hear it gents? The Oren shitposts are coming, fake propaganda fueled by OOC hate. Beware and watch the prophecy fulfill itself! ))

Jack Revlis nods waiting to get a contract.

[Hiebe 2493]

Dwain strikes the hot iron while he deeply thinks.

Oren takes in da unes who lead da dwarves during da friege, who brought dis war tu us. Funneh

[Tadmonster 54]

Havmar looks to his many brethren, calling upon them to aid in the time of need. The freedom of Athera will not fall without blood. Let it be spilt.

[Nathan_Barnett36 1564]

"Shut up you dumb motherfucker" shouts Siegmund

[Vesalian 62]

Scoffs "These petty dwarves..."

[ausbrig renegade 238]

Paul Saraliew smirks with mirth upon reading the poster, before going on to opress more innocent dindu nuffin dwarves with his fellow evil Oreninan Fascists. 

[lawnmowerman 3040]

Luka glances briefly at the poster, pursing his lips before giving a croaky chuckle, right hand resting on the pommel of his blade, before he'd mutter to himself.

 

"Short chetniks, dumb as rock ....niet fit for battle..."
