~=~ The Temple Bells Toll ~=~

[Soggy365 162]

Aldal Ireheart, Prophet of Anbella, makes his slow and methodical approach to the podium in the grand temple of the dwedmar of Urguan. He coughs into his good hand, adjusting his robes slightly as silence falls upon the expectant crowd. With a deep voice, his accent clearly concealed with some effort, he begins to speak.

 

"People of The Grand Kingdom, proud sons of Urguan. With the recent retirement of Darid Irongut from the position of High Prophet after his long years of faithful and fruitful service, the burden of electing his successor has fallen on the shoulders of the Council of Prophets. Long discussion was had, with much debate and deep prayer. However, no final decision has been reached as of yet. Due to unforeseen circumstances, it has become clear that neither myself or my fellow Prophet, Tharggus, are capable of taking up this sacred role. Our third Prophet, Gror, cannot take up this glorious duty as he is already engaged in Legion tasks. The Brathmordakin work in mysterious ways, and it is increasingly evident that their will is for a new dwarf, a fresh candidate, to enact their commands. As such, the Council of Prophets will be assuming control of Da Kirkja Dverga until such a time as the true choice of our gods for this position becomes clear. Current members of the clergy, continue your sacred duty and forsake not your faith, and civilians who wish to devote your lives to the service of the gods, feel free to do so. Our meditation and deepest thought has revealed something to us, perhaps the word of Yemekar himself; the next High Prophet is to be of fresh blood, detached from previous ties. They are to restore Da Kirkja Dverga to its former glory, to bring about a new age of faith and wisdom for our proud people. They must not be motivated by personal gain, nor by the accumulation of wealth. If the counsel of the Council is true, then a humble dwed of true faith and passion will soon rise among our ranks. Until that day, pray to your gods for the beautiful restoration of the religion they have promised."

 

With that, the dwed falls silent, returning to his position among the other Prophets of Da Kirkja Dverga.

Nods his head slowly, looking to Baldin Frostbeard, who had recently returned from a long journey. He wonders if this is the Dwarf the Brathmordakin search for...

*after listening to the speech Baldin frostbeard heads outside and looks at the snowy mountains.* 

"Ets thes mha propose mah lord? Es thes whey am here now after mor than a 100 seasons? No matter ovah all these yers ah hav realized tha whil a dent always undertan tha path ye take meh en, yer path es always right."

"Prophets t'at cunnot take up t'e roll ov 'oigh Prophet?" Dangren Starbreaker says as he reads the address. "Even en t'eir laws ov religious governance ah 'oigh Prophet cun only become from t'ose of established prophetdom." Dangren calls his sons to read the address, "Oi feel loike slothfulness 'as crept entuh t'e clergy... very deadly ef unchecked. Maybe t'e gods shall purged t'at darkness froim aged moinds."

Baldin sits down on top of the roofs of the Frostbeard's hall, looking at the dwarven city from above, next to him a huge dragon statue of wyrvun almost finished. 

 

" Al guide mi people to tha light of tha gods, thes statue es en yer honor mi lord wyrvun. May al gods watch as we tha dwebs praise hem and serve ther will."
