Opinions from the Throne I - The Elven Conundrum

[Narthok 10416]

"GLORY TO HUMANITY" Arthas would cry rallying his purifiers to purify the magic loving elves

[NotEvilAtAll 10906]

“Darned bigguns are a’ it again!” Madeline Applefoot would say from over in Dunshire “War t’is bad, Ye should never do war!”

[DustyDune 241]

Sohaer Cenwall Maeyr'onn, ruler of the High Elves of Haelun'or reads the notice with a distasteful frown. His body would rock in a wicker chair basket as he sipped the finest teas any descendant had to offer-- pinky out of course. He'd think aloud to himself and to the patrons of the inn.

"Once I wished for a unified elven front-- never under them but unified nonetheless. It however has become apparent that the 'Wood Elves' of the Dominion of Malin have only proved their poor judgement in the face of an ever changing trend for our lands... Elven Power. They have done what uncivilized, wildlings will always do when they gain more than a stick and string to hunt-- be savages. I was their at the ceremony, and their words of unity struck a cord in me I will not lie. However such discourse of proclaiming yourself as the leaders of all elves is foolish when there remains three other elven nations that do not agree with worshiping the same trees they lay in their beds-- only to make abominations of plant-being. Furthermore their acts of brutality show why they should stick to living in the jungles and mingle with the apes they so emulate by murdering orcs without warning. If they wish for unity, they need to realize up until now they were breastfeeding on the teet of humanity for generations and their adolescence can be seen by any nation that bears witness to their petty shows of 'Power'."

The pure mali'thill would set his china tea-glass onto its Podstakannik shaking his head.

"I only pity the mali'aheral who have lost their way to Larihei's teachings... May they realize that lessers will never know how to keep them safe in the civilized world and to return to their true home, Haelun'or.  Maehr'sae Hiylun'ehya, brothers and sisters."

Cenwall would fall silently, staring at the notice in deep thought.

Carsandra read's the missive, laughing out loud.

 

"Humans, twisting our words. You insult our faith, call ours false, and then declare open war on us. I hope you like death."

"Its true she isn't. Anyone who is actually advocating violence is not really representative of the wish of the people or the Dominion itself. We don't want war, this is just a misunderstanding. The Dominion has always kept close relations with the humans, we have fought at their side and we have won many victories together and suffered hardship. Hopefully cool heads shall prevail and the peace and harmony can be preserved." remarks Abelas

Dimmesdale reads over the published document while bedridden, over a cup of tea. He frowns. "Huh... Unfortunate the elves chose to worship a deceiver's religion." He mumbles to himself, clearing his throat. The augur sets down the tea and notice, signing himself. "I can only pray that they find clarity soon, and do not damn themselves..." He falls back into a fever induced sleep before he can finish the thought.

Caius, long friend of the High Elves from the days of the friendly Sohaer in the Westerlands, catches wind of Sohaer Cenwall's reaction. Due to his free time, he took up the art of painting and quickly mails him one of his newest pieces, hopefully a new addition to the Silver Citadel!

Cenwall receives the mail and promptly hangs the glorious painting in the Eternal Library of Haelun'or for all pure 'thill to witness.

Artimec shrugged. "The Dominion never had plans to annex the other elven polities and Aspectism is exclusively a wood elven faith that forbids worshippers of non elven races. It isn't even the only religion in the city. Given that I fail to see the issue here."

The Aspects, or spirits, as prescribed by the Exalted Owyn, are a paganic entity which elves falsely follow.

The High Pontiff praises the words! Having first hand witnessed the vows of uniting the Elven-kind under a single banner.

 

An old priest, dead and ghostly as he may be, experiences a moment of humanity and writes a letter to the new iteration of the nations of man.

 

"My brothers in the light,

 

Once again you fear a coming conversion to a false belief. You are within your rights to fear so, as you know the truth and are charged by God to protect it, but do not forget to show mercy unto those who are peacefully ignorant; It was the words of pontiffs past who proclaimed the Aspects aenguls of God, sent to watch over his green places. Once the Druids who saw this truth lived alongside you, and protected your woods. Their goods were sold openly in your market, tokens of the forest and their Aspectial guardians.

 

Do not mistake belief in the Aspects for paganism, for they are God's servants, and those who in turn serve them are blessed with a godly mission. It is those who follow the Aspectist faith, who believe that the Aspects are themselves god, who are the pagans. They refuse to see our creator, believing him false because their 'gods' are so easily seen. They do not know that the Aspects and our creator are as child and father, as you too now seem to be forgetting.

 

Do not vye for a crusade, when you could gain more traction with a mission.

 

- Oliver Gallic, Druid of Solace"

Former Rex Kuntklobbera stirs from his ambling, deep within the recesses of the land. Bringing forth his axe with zeal in his eyes, he made the trek towards the orkish capital, "Cut da tall trees." He'd mutter as he went.

"Druids must be PURGED," says Constantine.

[Cave_Creature 467]

Ainsley sits at a wharf, sewing together massive strips of heavy canvas with thick thread, preparing the canvas into a proper sail for her future clipper. She looks out on the docks as men haul cut lengths of lumber to a keel sitting in a dry-dock. She hears the news of a call for a human empire.

"Well, I don't see what's wrong with the elves jus' wantin' t'worship how they do. But it can't hurt to be united, can it? Either way, war means business, for good'r bad. Just changes up what cargo I'm gonna haul."
