Gavin_ 1833 Popular Post Share Posted December 29, 2021 (edited) Why We Fight A Reminder to All Mali’thill As Issued by the Sohaer 6th of the Snow's Maiden, Year 57 - S.A (Art by Biegeltoren) ________________________________________ Maehr’sae Hiylun’ehya Larihei abandoned Malin - Stagnation and inadequacy had found its way into the minds and hearts of Malinor - and so she, along with kindred spirits, departed. Called to perfection were their souls - and so began Haelun’or. For generations, Haelun’or has existed - like the Ocean that now surrounds our Blessed Silver Isle, Haelun’or has ebbed and flowed, its tides have risen and sunk, for such is the nature of the corrupted world we live in - yet from generation to generation, we are called to perfection - and it is through the teachings of Larihei - as found in her Eternal Library and College, that we may glimpse at the ideal. We do not call upon a Deity or King for guidance, but we rely on trusted and true, age-old traditions and customs to lead us by our hands, as Children of Silver, towards the Argent domain of the Silver Maiden. Haelun’or is, and will always be. This is a fact that cannot be undone - for Haelun’or is a concept and ideas cannot be destroyed. From the First Maheral in Asulon, Dio Astòre, to the current Maheral, Elesia Elervathar, we drive on, adhering to blessed principles and tradition, no matter what foe or fiend stands before us. Haelun’or, given its glimmering brilliance, has always attracted spawns of Iblees, for those who dwell in the dark, cannot bear to suffer the light. Caustic, is the nature of these daemons who seek to poison the minds and hearts of Mali’thill. Throughout our history, we have contended with many manifestations of evil - Drakes - stricken down by our blessed evariran in Asulon. Schism, imposed by the most corrupted of Mali’aheral - such as the Izalith, yet they were repelled. Now, we contend with the Nations of the world, misguided though they be, rallied under the banner of a Princess who claims the Throne of Haelun’or, Ivarielle I. She demands Larihei’s legacy - Haelun’or, for herself. She styles herself the Princess of all ‘Aheral, yet Haelun’or has no throne - it never has, nor will it ever, for it is not in her nature. Furthermore, what so-called Princess of a people, would actively try to destroy the cultural heritage of those people? What so-called Princess of a people, would slaughter her own people for a non-existent throne? None that any Mali’aheral ought recognize. Ivarielle I is in League with those who have for countless generations, assaulted the very fabric of what it means to be a Child of Silver - maehr’sae hiylun’ehya. Haelun’or is among the eldest of Nations - long have we stood, and long will we continue to stand, for history has shown, time and time again, that when Haelun’or and her blessed denizens maintain their purity - when we rally behind the traditions and customs given to us by our predecessors, that we are strongest and we endure. For most of our history, we have never relied on the sword to survive - yet we remain, how is this possible in a world where pride, greed, brutality and malice reigns? It is made possible because our calling is not of the physical world - we are not driven by pride, such as the Valah, we are not driven by greed, such as the Bortu, we are not driven by brutality, like the Uruk, nor are we driven by malice, such as the tribe of Fenn. No, our calling is far greater than this. We are driven by an ideal of absolute perfection - attainable only by a select few who inhabit this world - the Mali’thill. And so while evil may rasp upon our Silver gates, I encourage you to treat this current impracticality with the same zeal as our previous generations have - continue on with your lives, halt not your attainment of purity, ignore these evil-doers, for their mission is to stop you from reaching your potential. The best defence Haelun’or has, lies in each and every one of you - your Silver Soul. Continue to live out maehr’sae hiylun’ehya - shine forth, like a beacon - blind our enemies with your brilliance. Silver will endure - it always has. Mali’thill shall always hold, in their hearts, Haelun’or - for it is in the nature of all Mali’thill - to seek perfection.

_Sheylo_ 979 Share Posted December 29, 2021 (edited) The Citizen/Sillumiran/Innkeeper from elCihi'thilln/Haelun'or gave a subtle nod, a grin forming over his face as he read over the missive sent to the world. "As we should. Haelun'or will never fall. It is but an ideology, even if it is to lull now, it will come back just as a pheonix from ash."

mika1278 2679 Share Posted December 29, 2021 Althrin mused upon seeing the missive "All that is ancient must end one way or another, unity above seclusion" he then chuckled as he reached for his blade besides him, cleaning it a bit extra to get rid of the tarnish from colliding with armour. 3 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

_mady07 1104 Share Posted December 29, 2021 [!] Mélawen looked over the missive narrowing her eyes a bit as she did. "Times have really changed yet we are still considered the pressing evil.. so in some ways nothing has changed." she commented pinning up the missive to her wall with a heavy sigh then looking to her pale green frog with a small grin "Ti, Ti, Ti.. I know. you dont like them, they threw you out a widow." she mutter to the amphibian before giving the frog a strawberry "Still they are our kin.. I hope there is little blood shed." 5 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Elennanore 2741 Share Posted December 29, 2021 "Blessed is the will of Larihei." El'rith takes a knee by the gates of the Silver City. "I raise this sword once more in service of a purpose much greater than myself. To ensure the legacy of Silver forever prospers, and to make passage for my fellow 'thill through the fires of turmoil. Burned I may be, and steel I have become. With open arms I shall embrace oblivion; to be laid to rest by the sea when I meet my end. Let the clear waters wash over me, as I am embraced by enlightenment - maehr'sae hiylun'ehya. Blessed is the will of Larihei!" 8 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Samler 1045 Share Posted December 30, 2021 The ancient elf let a small genuine warm smile upon seeing the picture of the missive. "Ahh, Lin'everal." The smile then faded melancholily as he read on the missive. "Well." He noted to himself within his home as he read it. "Fight we will indeed, they are trying to destroy the city, kill the people." He sighs "Even in the worst case, they get their way. They can't destroy Haelun'or." His tone a sad melancholy. "No one can these days." 5 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
