hotbox_monk 977 Popular Post Share Posted September 6, 2021 Spoiler DECLARATION OF WAR The Crimes of the Grand Kingdom of Urguan The Grand Kingdom of Urguan once prospered as a state of grandeur, hosting legendary dwarves; blacksmiths, artisans, authors, and warriors have passed, strived and defended behind our underground palisades from invaders and those who go against the Brathmordakin. However, the Kingdom has grown decrepit -- it is no longer a mighty dwarven hold that sustains our culture and religion; it no longer supports our prosperity and our kin. Now, it is a small hole in the mountainside, scattering their lands with non-dwarven heretics and pagan religious fanatics who breach our ancient codes and virtues. We once strived for dwarven unity, a cycle wherein our future generations would remain safe. Now, our politics is threatened by non-dwarven vermin attempting to host their own false ideologies from wayfaring lands. It is time to put an end to this act of perfidy and become the bulwark of dwarven culture and philosophy once more. It is the time to hold our hammers and take back our lands from the encroaching evil that have settled; we of dwarves have conquered continents single handedly -- the might of other empires have failed to topple us for eons. The rites and tribulations we have faced over the years were discounted for protection and trade. The Grand Kingdom of Urguan is no more. During the elections, it was us Doomforged who were faced with persecution and unnecessary bias. They claim to be men of the Brathmordakin, yet let the Aengul-usurpers of Xan settle our lands and claim our culture; they let these devils assail the dwarves of our land. It is against the Brathmordakin to meddle with heretics, and then profess the Archdrakaar Azdromoth as a force of evil against the creation of Yemeker. Let us be reminded that the insolence and greed of dwarvenkind released the Great Titan from Khaz'Bokkdwedohin many years ago; they lusted for power and knowledge, sanctity and prowess -- this was gifted by Azdromoth. They claim the dragonkin have been a terror of Almaris, yet then profuse the mention of Ando Alur collapsing; the dwarves of the Grand Kingdom of Urguan were present for these proscribing events and supported the actions of voidal cleansing that threatened our world. It was the Azdrazi and their heralds that have been hefty shields protecting this world; it is the simple fact -- culture bounds of dragon hunts which commend their only reason of hatred against the Father Azdromoth. You would rather be supported by the Sunlit Lord, a notorious force of greed and selfishness, and deny the help of the stalwart Azdrazi and their father Azdromoth who brought ruin to the forces of Iblees and the spawn of inferi (who we actively fight still), who have made pacts with ancient Grand Kings and brought council and serenity to this nation. “After the schism of Lords, Dormin was removed, the single pillar of equality in the kingdom, and thus began a revolt, after a letter sent by Hodir’s firstborn, Dormin, Zahrer decided to resign and exile himself from the kingdom as a new king began to be elected. Hodir put himself as a candidate, quickly winning over the other candidates. Hodir was then made King of the Dwarves. After a reign of victory against the humans of Oren, Hodir was thought to be slain in battle. Demagol, believing Hodir to be dead, made a place for him inside the Doomforged Tombs. Dormin then, in grief, went missing, leaving Demagol once again to lead the clan. Demagol quickly set to renewing old ties with the Dark Elves, as well as within Urguan, making sure to strengthen the bond between the Doomforged and the Irehearts as distant kin. Almost after a month of peace, war struck Urguan once again. This time, the Uruks of the Iron Uzg sought for blood. Once again, the Doomforged began forging arms and armor for the dwarves of Urguan. As time goes on, and the war continues, and more attempts on the Doomforged's lives happen, Demagol begins turning away from his peaceful methods, starting to outright kill any who threaten Doomforged, showing no mercy, and making sure his kin know not give any as well. After several more years of war and bloodshed between the Iron Uzg and Kingdom of Urguan, the two nations finally decided it was enough, and created a Bloodpact. Though, after so many years, even decades of watching his clan be threatened, attacked, and killed, Demagol did not return to his old mindset of peace.” Our hundreds of years of servitude has been clamoured by the mention of one deific and merciful dragon lord -- you have tarnished our assistance and legacy whilst we supported removing tyrants and providing for the Grand Kingdom. You threaten the brothers and sisters of my Clan with treason and other acts of torture if they commit to the same path set by me. If we are to speak on history’s calling and the mention of past endeavours with the Betrayer and the spawn of Azdromoth, let us be reminded that the current party of election have once slaughtered and massacred dwarvenkind over nothing. The Frostbeards have been tainted warmongers; harbingers of doom and followed the trespasses of Iblees and Xionism for many years. They are evil and vile men that wish to bring ruination to the Grand Kingdom and will do so again. As quoted in the books of our ancestors: “After years under King Balek, the Irongut 'died' to the Devourer. Skippy Irongut became King, causing a Civil War to break out between the Loyalist Dwarves, and Verthaik Frostbeard's 'Mountain Monarchy'. Demagol kept the Doomforged out of the conflict for the most part, stepping in to say a few words to both sides on how they must unite. Finally the war ended, and the Doomforged began fading slowly and slowly away. Years pass, and Skippy is assassinated before Demagol's very eyes. The Clan Father hurriedly attempted to get the King to healers, but alas, he was dead.” The Grand Kingdom of Urguan is confused. I will settle this confusion. I am disheartened to announce that the Doomforged Clan declares war against the Grand Kingdom of Urguan, promising to restore it to our ancestral and natural cultural path. All those who still wish to be dwarves and proceed to recreate our Grand Kingdom, I beckon you to heed this call. Our terms are as follows: Article I - Grand King ♛ Draakopf Doomforged will be known as the Grand King of Urguan. The Grand Kingdom of Urguan will still be an elective state, but Draakopf will be acting Grand King during its restoration. Article II - Vassals ♛ All non-dwarven vassals will be granted autonomy and independence as they do not assimilate with dwarven culture. Article III - Military Reform ♛ The legions of the Grand Kingdom of Urguan will be reformed to become greater. All dwarves of the legion will be given new uniforms and provided weaponry of higher material (thanhic-steel and etcetera). Article IV - Recovering Ancient Relics ♛ Due to the calamity befalling our current dwarven-state, all ancient relics of our dwarven culture (which has been disregarded by this nation) will be recovered including the recreation of the Hammer of Urguan.

BDanecker 858 Share Posted September 6, 2021 The Lord of the Aurokanar gives a grin at this, not of a haughty expression but one of mirth, to which he explains to his metal son through interjections of steam blasting through his forge "Perhaps ah've underestimated Draakopf when ah said he wos too bold ah'n public. This does indeed bring ah grin to me scarred face. But, business as usual." 4 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Werew0lf 12024 Share Posted September 6, 2021 Leon de Blair stared at the missive in silent contemplation, scribbling away onto his book. It seems that his studies had to continue. "A study on dragon-heretics." He commented as per his writing, clearly absorbed by the prospect of a dragon-cultured nation. 5 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ramon 3965 Share Posted September 6, 2021 Goddumir Doomforged frowned as he read the declaration, letting out a disappointed sigh before throwing the missive into the roaring fire behind him.

TreeSmoothie 4898 Share Posted September 6, 2021 A behemoth knight polished her blade, narrowing her eyes toward the horizon where that grand city sat. "Draakopf . . . I like that one. Vy vill aid him as vell, da, korotyshka?" that seven-foot husk of armor chortled as she shakily rose, sparing a glance down at a shorter man. @Qizu 3 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Caelria 2618 Share Posted September 6, 2021 Dolgrim took the missive, sunken eyes peering over the document with rising fury unseen outside the lands of molten flame. "Traitor! Defiler! Yeh wuuld declare war on yer own kin? Yer own people? Cast tha sons 'nd daughters uv Urguan under tha stone an' rock uv the mountain? 're we not brothers of blood an' spirit all? Or has tha' dragon Azdromoth spoiled yer heart 'nd vision aloike? I beg ye' brother, dunnae turn yer back on tha Brathmordakin an' your people. Repent, say I! Spill nae blood of your kin but yeh own, 'nd swear upon it tha' ye will raise no arms against yer brothers 'nd sisters from this day until yer last." With a heavy, ragged breath, he lifted his fist from where it had pounded against the stone of his tabletop -- voice lowering to a low and dissappointed drawl. "Let this missive be yer shame, brother, and yer reminder nae tae let yer heart sink below tha call and loyalty uv yer kin." 7 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
