A Concerned Canonist

I have never made a forum post before please be nice to me I had no idea where else to put this! I've never formatted or done anything similar to this. All I've really uh. Done was reply to those posts :) 

 

All spellings are completely intentional and, lastly, if you know who wrote this, PLEASE do not metagame it.

Thank you!! 

 

[!] A paper, pinned to a post, or maybe a notice board. Perhaps even littered on the ground. 

 

 

 

It has recently come to my attention that the Uruk’s plan to destroy Vikela. From this, I question, why would they wish to do such a thing? What purpose?

 

Then it hit me. The purpose is obvious. They simply wish to show their might.

 

There is no just cause for this bloodshed other than to prove that their new system can stand strong. This is nothing more than a pathetic attempt to invoke fear into the hearts of Southerners. Their goals are nothing but destruction, and to gain land for themselves. Immediately after they had to make due to the Cannonist nations. And yet, they practice something that is an affront to Canonism itself. I do not mean Shamanism. 

 

I mean Blood Magic. 

 

I have it on good authority from an anonymous Orc that there are numerous blood mages within the New Horde. And there were multiple in the time of the Old Horde. Perhaps the new Rex is unaware. Maybe we shall give benefite of the doubt. 

 

But is that a risk we can take?

 

Suddenly, there is war in the South, perpetuated by destructive, power hungry individuals, who allow blood mages to walk among their illk. Who allow rituals to occur, and do nothing about it. If they are able to claim Vikela, what is next? Might they turn their eye to the good Canonist nations? Might they wish for revenge? For what was rightfully seized... back? Do they deserve to take new lands and make new demands on a whim?

 

Their previous leader may not have been the only one invested in the darker arts.

 

Is it not possible that they knew all along, until they couldn’t cover it up anymore?

 

And, sure, some were disgusted and revolted, but their transition to a new Rex was almost too smooth. The reforms almost too appealing to the outsider- I ask you to consider the potential implications there. Are the Uruk- the New Horde- simply trying to lure us into a false sense of security?

 

Are we so willing to forget their part in the Coalition war? While leadership has changed, it appears their bloodthirsty nature has not. Their need for death, blood, and destruction remains the same. The Southern alliance is in peices now, torn to shreds, and is it not funny how the second that happened, this war was declared?

 

Is it not funny how they can sit and demand destruction on another group, while harbouring those who practice dark magics? 

 

So, Canonists and others alike, I implore you to consider:

 

Just what is the risk if the New Horde wins?

What will satiate their appetite for blood?

"But how has BLOOD MAGIC and the war on daemon-worshipping elves affect you PERSONALLY??" Ahnakriel, centuries-old dragon lizard, shouted at the piece of paper sitting in his evil lair of doom, inching off his reading glasses with a smug smile before moving a piece on a burning chessboard next to him. "Check mate, Canonist. Heh."

"Pagans pretending to be canonists for our swords and our sympathy" Godefroy would remark drunkenly to a cadre of soldiers in the far north. "...name a more pitiful combination. Our holy God favors this war for pagans will slaughter pagans without a drop of blood from Sacred Canondom. Truly, nothing is more blessed."

As soon as he read the source was an 'anonymous Orc', he read no more.
