To the Freedom-Fighters of Aevos,

 

The tyrants and strongmen of the Coalition have attempted to keep our people down for decades. For years our peoples have traded blood for blood, and the Coalition believed their superior numbers made them incapable of defeat. Yet even when wounded, we are not yet dead. Just as the Daelish Five-Hundred made their stand against a Coalition army of 5,500 soldiers, we too made our stand against yet another numerically superior force.

 

When the Coalition mustered a force of 1,200 men to lay waste to New Dunbar again, they believed they would face a demoralized number of men no higher than the 500 who stood against them the last time. Instead, the Coalition fell upon the blades of 900 battle-ready Daels ready to avenge the heroic stand of the Daelish Five-Hundred. Even as the Daels sallied out of New Dunbar to give battle upon even ground, the Coalition force shuddered and splintered in two with half fleeing the field entirely and the other half remaining to fight.

 

When the battle was over, the entire force that had remained to fight had been decimated by the brave freedom-fighters of Daeland. No prisoners were taken, for the Coalition had not deigned to show any similar mercy to we Daels in the past. Now the fields of New Dunbar shall be watered in the blood of the Carrion crows, but this is just the beginning. The war against the Duchy of Alba and their puppet-masters in the coalition shall continue until at last the people of Daeland triumph.

 

LONG LIVE THE FIGHTERS!
