~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~


Let is be decreed that the Quali Spring has yet to end, as we purge heretics and degenerates from our lands. We shall not allow members of the Clerical Order to remain among us, nor shall we tolerate their compatriots. Elvira Mantisuku remains unharmed and in a cell being questioned, if you seek her returned safely present your offers. In the long run, we seek not to eliminate her or others but have an actual cause to release her. Remember that due to your impudence many civilians have been slain over the years whether it be dungeon delving, insane clerics going on their witch hunts, or far worse -- whether you be Ascended, Paladin, or Tahariaen you will find yourselves grow scarce in the days to come.

*****

I beg that there be peace, I beg that you relinquish your horrid and foul arts. And I bid that you remember, 'Where there is light, it casts a shadow.' 

Hazk nal Alistaer, the Warrior watches us and it is now in our moment of triumph that we present to you our terms. 

We could have slaughtered both your elderly priest and your sacred Arm, but instead we spared both a gruesome fate.

We could have razed your temple to the ground, but instead we showed you mercy.

Discern for yourselves our intentions, but let this conflict end, allow yourselves the chance to live.

***


Signed, Dralazar

Bertrand is impressed by the efforts of these men. He nails a sign into a post outside his tavern. It reads, "No Clerics allowed!"

Let us meet without bloodshed and discuss.

 

Meeting in a neutral area would be best.

 

Contact me privately in return.

 

Signed,

A lanky blonde figure in gleaming armor frowns, "Well then. It appears I have work to do." He would stride off without much more to say.

Meanwhile, within a cell within an unknown location....

 

Fa-lum boom.

Fa-lum boom.

Fa-lum boom.

"Strike fifty one... strike fifty two... strike fifty three... or was that two...? Damn it.. lost count for the fifth time...!"

 The imprisoned cleric mutters to herself as she chucks the ball at the wall opposite her then catching it. Her armour resting on a pile of blankets on one side of her room. Again, she throws the ball, watching it hit the wall before soaring back to her outstretched hand.

"I hope the others are doing well and planning on getting me out of here... I'm at least glad they didn't take my throwing ball from me... urgh... best recount my throws again..."

Fa-lum boom.

Fa-lum boom.

Fa-lum boom.

 

(If any of you know the referrance of this post, I will love you to bits.)

A letter is pinned in response:

 

"Your claims are not new, and you shall not be the last to make them. I request audience with you, in a neutral place."

 

The note would be signed "Andriel Z'lorn, Heart of the Clerics"

A note is sent in turn.

Very well, let there be no peace. In your ignorance you have condemned your order. Signed, Dralazar

It is after some time that another paper is attached to the Al-Wakrah noticeboard. The parchment, in curving, formal lettering, would read as follows:

 

To the Being Known as Dralazar;

 

Many years ago, I encountered a Xionist, a servant of Aerk’iath, in the cihi of Laureh’lin. He confronted me, and told me of how my Brothers in the Vehement Lord, the Holy Arch-Aengul of Purity. Tahariae, had so hunted his brothers and sisters, for their belief that the Aenguls and Daemons of the realm, no matter what boons they may offer, bring only evil to this realm. That his kind had been so persecuted by those who shared service to my Father, not for their evils or sins, but their beliefs.

 

And so it is that as I write this, I mourn. I mourn not only for my Brothers and Sisters, who in battle have suffered at your hands, but that such violence is necessary. I mourn that those who call themselves followers of Tahariae, Teacher of Necessity, would stoop so low to do as the Church of the Canon has done, to hunt, slay, lynch, and brutalize those who would speak against them.

 

Our service is to our Lord of Light, and to the Innocents. Through me, my King has wrought miracles of life-giving, has banished disease and wounds, has brought peace to those who have suffered. And there are my kin, who, embodying only my Lord’s aspect of Judgment, have failed to do so.

 

I do not expect this piece of parchment to end the violence. I do not expect your anger to be quelled, for my Order has inherited it from clerics past. Nay; I only want peace once more, and to hunt those whose arts they use to defile and harm the Innocents, who bring Impurity to this realm through their actions, and not through their beliefs.

 

We, the clerics of Tahariae, accept your terms. We shall depart the Caliphate of Khalestine, in return for our Sister, Elvira Mantisuku, and our holy texts, and peace for a time.

 

I pray that next we meet, it shall not be in battle.
