A Disaster Unseen

[Sander 3312]

 

Lord Ambassador Willem Hagelijn would silently step onto the speaking pedestal that stood in front a mass of silent, frowning Santegians. In the distance the crowd would hear the church bells mark the 8th hour of the day, early in the morning. As the sound of these church bells faded away, the silence returned, distorted and worried faces looking to him to start speaking...

 

"Last night, around three in the morning, our nation was attacked. An attack that caused great destruction upon our land and great distress amongst our people. An attack that could not have been foreseen or have been prevented. I stand here before you, my fellow Santegians, to tell you of the great attack mother nature sent upon us while we rested in our homes... We speak here of what seems to be an earthquake. But not just any ordinary earthquake. Our nation was hit by what can be called the greatest threat Axios has seen during our time here... Behind our capital, away from the coasts of our nation, there lies destruction. A crater so deep it could lead to the Nether itself, trees burned all across the countryside, rivers laying dry and ripping apart the land... It is this morning, that we wake up to the greatest disaster our great nation has seen so far. This isn't just an attack to our people, who will stand up again. This isn't just an attack to our walls, which can be rebuilt. This isn't an attack to our pride and honour which can be regained. This is an attack against our land itself."

 

"However, despite this horrid disaster, we will not let it bring us down. I ask you, the people, to bound together to overcome this struggle that the darkness has condemned us to. We will endure! This might be the end of Asul, and it might very well be the start of the end of Axios as a whole. But we will survive, Santegia will not fall to such troubles, we will last. All that we have may sink into the abyss.. In which case we will continue with nothing and rebuild our Kingdom. For the King himself has sworn to protect all upon Asul, to fight for life and humanity, to ensure that we prevail even if the lands which we stand upon do not. We will stand up again, and show that we will continue onward, together!"

 

"I ask of you all to pray for the well-being of Asul and our realm as a whole. I also ask you to not fall into panic and distress. We will take the situation under control and uphold the safety of our people, no matter what ever darkness decides to challenge us, be it Iblees, daemons, or the Poison, we will defeat.. It.. All."

A lone, green robed mali'ame had stumbled upon the chasm, following the depleted remnants of the scorched riverbed on and on... His face ghastly pale in horror of all the destruction. "...One by one, and so rapid now. What shall become of the homeland at this rate...?" He asks himself.
