Thesis on War and Mercy

 

War affects all, sadly something all men see in their lifetime. No man has ever lived without having been affected by or taken part in it. The Lord created us all to live in harmony with one another regardless of golden crowns and lineage, so why is it we make it our goal to destroy one another. Bloodlust was a curse that the betrayer placed upon Krug and his kin, not Horen and yet we are the most bloodthirsty, the most destructive race in the entire realm. I pen this missive as, one again, war begins to consume the realm. I pen this in hopes to reach out to the Canonist soldiers on either side of this war.

 

I care not for the politics of this war, they mean nothing to me. I know my voice will do nothing to stop the bloodshed that is to come, that is not the purpose of this thesis. Mankind should not be hunting one another for sport or leisure, we are all creations of GOD and thus I beg for restraint. Do not shed the blood of innocent civilians who hold no sway over the realm. Do not steal from the weary traveller on the roads because of their birth place. I have seen a number of men boast about killing travellers of the road, man should not take pride in the killing of other canonists. The killing of fellow Canonist’s should be a distasteful and hated act, only committed in an act of necessity to survive not for fun or to boast. 

 

Afterall, men take oaths to their liege lord and are obligated to follow them, justified or not. So I beg the Canonists on either side not to take pride in killing your fellow man. Have mercy on those unable to defend themselves. In every war there should be mercy and honour. You may attain victory, but at what cost to your soul?

“Verily, brother, the Lord GOD is the Most Benevolent, and giveth only mercy. And verily thou must find that pain cometh not from the wrath of the Lord, but as we reject him.”

 

Brother Boniface

10th of Sigismund’s End 1740

“Truly a man of GOD.” said the Most Beneveolent servant; Antonius as he peered upon the thesis.
