A VOICE OF REASON

Est. 14^th of Horen’s Calling, 1687

 

“Unitatis in populo”

 

“The definition of an empire, our empire, is that of multiple peoples under one flag. Many rich cultures of Humanity in Atlas have once again come together to form a mighty bulwark which will once again dominate the world for hundreds upon hundreds of years. At least, that is what will happen if our policies, rather than those of the Priorists gain prominence. Even briefly glancing at our manifesto compared to their own, it is clear that their closed off worldview would see this Empire once again split into pieces. Renatus is the core of this state which we have rallied around, yes, but it is not the whole. We must see ourselves as a cart being pulled along by a number of wheels. All of the wheels must be functioning in order to keep moving boldly forward, and not just one.

 

Our policies are that of openness and prosperity between humanity’s many vibrant peoples, not meaningless rivalry and one-upmanship. Free trade between the kingdoms will ensure that gold, food and treasure flows in ever greater quantities, and that soldiers of the Empire never march against one another. Vassal control of funds will allow them to invest in what they know to be most needed in their particular realm, rather than some unaware bureaucrat in the capital. Whereas the prevention of tax increases will ensure that the citizenry remains peaceful and enriched. The benefit of Renatus is not necessarily the benefit of us all. But if we should all benefit, so shall Renatus.”

[Islamadon 9164]

“’Oppeness’ is whistleblowing for Elven apologists who wish to see humans displaced from their homes. There is already free trade, and the Priorists themselves advocate such. The Imperial treasury is a private organization and lies with the business leaders. Vassals should not seek to steal the funds of our business leaders – it seems contradictory to your ideals of economic prosperity. And, Frankly, I find it comical that you would think that we, the Priorists, will split the Imperium when our Veterans were the ones who unified it. In fact, your Candidate in Haense opposed unity – if anything, you are the wedge, not we.” thinks Hans as he eats his dinner, reading the missive.

Ser Carlovac sweats profusely; marauding bands of Priorist paramilitaries patrolling Augustus Street and Romstun Road.

Commodus’ reaction when he hears the Common Civic Party wants him to give subsidies to the vassals:

 

[Inferno_Ougi 1454]

“Wow diz iz puzzi zkah, mi like da klompy puriztz more.” Snarkily snarked Glottgut in his chamber of snark as he snarkily put the missive in his snark chest that stunk of snark.

Moved to The Great Library. It shall be sorted into the appropriate category shortly.
