ECS1999 989 Popular Post Share Posted February 16 IRONY? Issued at Year 168 of the Second Age Irony? It was a normal day in Lurin when the Church arrived, not carrying the proper documents to test Lurin citizens and yet they did. Lurin wishes for peace so even though the populace was not happy, the tests occurred, not finding a single Lurinite to be darkspawn. Adjunted a copy of the treaty that the Church signed with Lurin and failed to follow. The High Pontiff arrived later with a few of his soldiers, we accepted them into the city and moved to meet to solve the small differences. What was our surprise when one of the Holy Knights, so called Johannes by the Canonist forces, a man who entered with His Holiness and stood all the time behind him during the meeting, turned into an undead and stabbed the Pontiff. Do not let others fool you, Lurin has NO tolerance with darkspawn and even though we offered to heal the High Pontiff they refused, even insulting us by calling us pagans. The darkspawn that came with them was terminated by the Brotherhood and later on burnt by our atronachs in the square.Irony? ETERNAL WE STAND, LONG LIVE THE LUBBA!

sam33497 2946 Share Posted February 16 Az'rekash, Lich of the Void and stabber of the Pontiff, seethed with laughter. "I am near to pity for Lurin, that the Church displays such a farce in the face of their true desolation to the West. They shall see soon." 10 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Jaslaw 276 Share Posted February 16 "Oh, finally getting adressed... about time. Bringing a darkspawn into our citie with them and knowing they exact name, and then being anoyed when he gets stabed... Go figure." *Shook his head sighing his head gently* "Spreading infections and pestilance, what a amazing thing of them to do by all the unecessary testing... how great." 7 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

SaviourMeme 695 Share Posted February 16 A small note is pinned to the bottom of the missive They live amongst the Hohkmat, who they themselves say will bring about destruction Yet they accuse us of not allowing the cleansing of darkness They accuse us harbouring darkspawn Yet one of their own group stated allegiance to the darkness They say we are not doing our part Yet the darkspawn JOHANES, stood at the pontiffs shoulder the entire time The darkspawn who was called by name by the pontiffs own men The darkspawn who was brought into the city by the pontiff And yet, they say we are the ones working with the dark Hypocrites 13 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Boknice275 1209 Share Posted February 16 [!] Atemu is delivered a cache of missives from around the world by his couriers as part of his daily briefings. This particular missive is given to him directly, standalone, by one of his messengers. "Pharaoh, this seems important." The Courier said, bowing before walking away. Atemu takes the missive and displays it before himself, gazing upon it for a few moments.. After reading through its contents, he simply shakes his head and places the missive down. "As I said - Isfet has infiltrated every institution in this world. The pontiff's unfortunate experience is the latest example of this truth.." Atemu said. He then orders his couriers to send a batch of invitation missives to the people of Aevos. Spoiler 3 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
mika1278 2711 Share Posted February 16 A retired Silver Lubba, Mika Anarion reads over the missive with a slight frown "His Holiness- or as I used to know them, Cardinal Arnaud. A trustworthy canonist, one of the few who bothered to look our way when the Eshtaelites were founded and saw reason and brotherhood. I hope his recovery is swift and to realize that the agents of darkness prosper when his own men are left unchecked." he then sighed "Hope nothing comes from this, I still have hopes of brotherhood with the canonist flock" 7 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

ChaoticRoller 591 Share Posted February 17 The Figure read the missive, as they read each sentence, they nodded their head giving a distaste in their appearance upon the paper. They then stood up, gathering their weapon and began sharpening the blade. 2 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Urban 45 Share Posted February 17 (edited) Reynard would read the lies that the men, just a little bit ago, was too cowardly to state Infront of the Pontiff "Next time, I won't slap the King's consort for when she speaks heresy. Free speech law in Lurin my arse, there is no place in Canonism to refer to the Pontiff as 'his horniness' amongst other things. Happens again and the tree in the town square gets a fresh new ornament." He threw the missive away. Edited February 17 by Urban 6 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Bethinwonderland 1139 Share Posted February 17 "Sounds about right." The Sovereign of the Depths hummed, placing the missive on the coffee table "The humans surrounding themselves with undead. We can only hope that others believe Edvard's statement on the gruesome affair. Lurin doesn't harbor darkspawn if they can help it. The church really needs to get it's stuff sorted before they get snuffed out" she paused as she looked to her husband "Then again.. That might not be a bad thing? 6 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
PrinceJose270 747 Share Posted February 17 "Very hypocritical, but it's not like we couldn'tsee this coming."Gusiam claimed, taking a moment as he read over the contents of the missive. Yet only shook his head in a manner of disappointment."The fact that they, the people who lead canonists, the ones who condemn Shamans, Druids, and paladins alike as heretical. Yet they themselves harbor darkspawn within their own ranks? I do wonder, will they try to bury this under the rug or deny it when people already claim to witness it? I had already warned that such actions can happen.. But you are right dear, It might not be bad. To have traveled with an undead, get betrayed by such. Yet call Lurin the pagans?... The canonists trulydo not deserve Lurin's people. Is all what Gusiam replied to his wife. "Let us indeed hope for such. The land that was rumored to have darkspawn visited by the church that walks with the very things they accused....." 8 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
