The Impure and there shadow spells (Emperors speech)

[Sultan 3953]

(Just because Ambrose wanted it xD

)

Men, women and children of all ages, nobles and commoners alike soilders of both sides stand there at the bottom of the keep loyalists and the ones that had the veil of lies put on there faces stood side by sides, brothers in arms once more. Godfrey sadness can be seen on his face and eyes but his voice boomed as he spoke to the masses, the look of sadness changed as he looked down to his people, he stood at the top of a balcony, as he speaks he takes a breath now and then.

''Citizens of the civilized Oren my people, on this day we mark a transition. For years, Oren stood as the crowning achievement of civilized beings. But there were those who would set us against one another, and we took up arms to defend our way of life against the Impure. In so doing, we never suspected that the greatest threat came from within.

The Impure put a cloud and a spell of falsehood, on some within our own Court, the Impure conspired to create the shadow of Impurity using our own as there pawn. They had hoped to grind the Empire into ruin. But the hatred in their hearts could not be hidden forever. At last, there came a day when our enemies showed their true natures.

The Impure hoped to unleash their destructive power against the Empire by smearing lies on the head of government, corrupting our nobles and usurping control of the Army. But the aims of would-be tyrants were valiantly opposed by those without elitist, dangerous powers. Our loyal men contained the insurrection within the west and quelled uprisings on thousands of lands.

The remaining Impure will be hunted down and defeated! Any collaborators will suffer the same fate our men that were corrupted and lead to believe the lies if they see the truth they shall be forgiven. These have been trying times, but we have passed the test. The attempt on my name has left me a better Emperor, but I assure you my resolve has never been stronger. The war is over. The Impure have been defeated, and the rebellion has been foiled. We stand on the threshold of a new beginning. In order to ensure our security and continuing stability, the Empire will be reorganized, for a safe and secure society, which I assure you will last for ten thousand years. An Empire that will continue to be ruled by this august body and a sovereign ruler for life. An Empire ruled by the majority, ruled by a new rule of law!

By bringing the entire land under one law, one language, and the enlightened guidance of one individual, the corruption that plagued us in its later years will never take root. Regional Lords will eliminate the bureaucracy that allowed the Impure movement to grow unchecked. A strong and growing military will ensure the rule of law.

Under the Empire's New Order, our most cherished beliefs will be safeguarded. We will defend our ideals by force of arms. We will give no ground to our enemies and will stand together against attacks from within or without. Let the enemies of the Empire take heed: those who challenge Imperial resolve will be crushed.

We have taken on a task that will be difficult, but the people of the Empire are ready for the challenge. Because of our efforts, the land has traded war for peace and anarchy for stability. millions of people now look forward to a secure future. The Empire will grow as more lands feel the call, from the Rim to the wilds of unknown lands.

Imperial citizens must do their part. Join our grand fleet or armed forces. Become the eyes of the Empire by reporting suspected insurrectionists. Travel to the corners of the land to spread the principles of the Faith to barbarians. Build monuments and wonders that will speak of our glory for generations to come.

The Knights, now proudly wearing the name of Imperial Knights, have tackled the dangerous work of fighting our enemies on the front lines. Many have died in their devotion to the Empire. Imperial citizens would do well to remember their example.

The Faith of Oren has triumphed over the shadowy secrecy of shameful magicians. The direction of our course is clear. I will lead the Empire to glories beyond imagining. We have been tested, but we have emerged stronger. We move forward as one people: the Imperial citizens of the Oren Empire. We will prevail. Ten thousand years of glory begins today.''

*Jess listens to the speech, rolling his eyes several times throughout. He can barely keep himself from falling to a fit of laughter when he hears Godfrey's suggestion that one individual ruler is less corrupt than having a bureaucracy. As he hears the Godfrey's last statement, he actually does laugh, although quietly, concealed by the cheers of those supporting Godfrey, mostly the voices of the nobles and knights. Quietly, he mutters to himself, "10000 years of glory can begin after he loses his throne." Jess sighs and begins to move towards the back of the crowd, still listening intently.

-Insert Imperial March Here-

[Hanrahan 2983]

Hanrahan dissapears into the crowds, heading out of Oren, anywhere but there.

"Dark days ahead..."

[nppeck 601]

Countess Ariana Gracchi's face remains impassive as she listens to the speech. "Thus start the fires" She says to herself quietly. "And thus is calm before the storm"

[Temp 2006]

Temp stands among the others from the White Rose. A blank expression on his face. He glances down at his tabard, a shiny medal attatched. "Strange times.." He glances back up at the Emperor, listening.

[Scipp3r 451]

His grace Duke Patrick Denims of Corpathia stands within the masses and sighs thinking to himself I would never betray me emperor but stay safe Phoenix king as well as Axl and Throdo.

[Eddywilson2 2117]

Parizal Falding walks up. "What about Lord Throdo and Niko" he asks worriedly.

[Blundermore 2741]

A figure of White, hooded and robed watches from the gathered crowd, listening to Godfrey's speech... Shaking his head he says in a low tone voice;

"and so passes the last ounce of reason in the winds of madness."

With staff in hand he turns to slowly leave the crowd and Arethor behind...

"shadow magic, hurmph!"
