Unity

What is unity?

Is it the simple gathering of folk under a common cause?

Are they rich? Poor? Well-grounded or lost?

Are they just in their purpose or unjustified?

Do they cheat, steal, or even rally their purpose with a single lie?

 

Or how about when?
When does unity occur or how does it happen?

Is it when an oppressive foe sets out to destroy all?

Perhaps it is when a man seeks too much, and those around him pray for his fall.

 

No, it can’t be that. Unity is not a product of violence,

For unity is built on a foundation of trust and correspondence.

Unity is when a wall crumbles down, 

and yet the people stand to defend its fallen town.

 

In the face of tyranny, aggression, and near destruction,

the Northman, Savoyard, brigand, elf, & dwarf show their bravery in determination.

Through troubles, struggles, and the most utter devastating fails,

the united stood on the shores of the port and prevailed.

 

However, the Heartlander should not be forgotten in this bout,

for like any other, there is no shame in defending his land that sprouts.

The righteous man’s cause is not for vengeance or fame,

but rather looks to protect his farm from the violent spread of flames.

 

And so, a question is begging to be asked.

What good is unity when two sides constantly bicker over a seemingly lost task?

The answer of such is uncertain at times and to the minds of many is ranked least.

However, one thing is for certain:

True unity must first come with peace.

Nikoleta folded up the poetic words and tucked them under Cazimiera’s pillow. 

[Borin 5270]

"Unity shall come with faith. Until the Canonist world unites in faith, united under the Church, there shall be no unity." bishop viktor says with great conviction!
