The Wolf Awakens: Election of the Silver Sohaerate Published on the 14th of Snow’s Maiden To the People of Haelun’or, I know I am not very well known among the people of this great nation. Some of you may know me, some of you may not. To those of you who do not, I am Gantar Lythian. In our era of discord and strife, we are left without a Sohaer. Although I am far less renowned than my peers, Arelion Laurir'ante and Silir Uradir , I am no less resolved than them in my desire to bring glory and honour once more to our proud People as in the olden days.
Although I have no doubt that Laurir’ante and Uradir’s ideals are what they think is most beneficial for us, they are wrong. Uradir seems, although well-intended, overtly pacifist for the role of Sohaer, particularly in regards to the Dominion, and seems far too soft-edged in the event of a war with such a potent power
Here I shall summarize part of what I hope to achieve if elected as Sohaer:
We shall restore the honour of our people by finally bringing an end to this this infernal rivalry with the Dominion of Malinor/Elvenesse. I prefer to use peace to resolve it, but will use force if absolutely necessary. If negotiations occur, will seek to form a personal alliance with them in possible in order to ensure better tranquility both between our states and ensure an eternal ally in the event of war.
Bring an end to the Uruk’s reign of barbary on the free roads of Atlas. In rebuilding our armed forces, we shall restore peace and justice on the roads on and around the Silver State by doing far more periodic patrols to ensure the safety of our people.
If elected, I shall increase the income of Haelun'or through inviting businesses to set up their headquarters in provinces held by the Silver State in return for very low taxes on their income in exchange for protection of their trade convoys. This shall provide both jobs for the People of the our state both in defense and in trade operations.
We shall make Haelun’or a lively nation once more. Our people have started to migrate out of our city. We must increase our population and business. If elected, I shall oversee the construction of further businesses and increases in trade, both public and private, and encourage further reproduction of our Kind through tax cuts and loans for starting families, in which each child a family has shall reduce the loan payment by twenty five percent. Upon the birth of four children, the loan shall be considered paid off.
I know it will be a very difficult road to repair the damage sustained by glorious Haelun’or over the years, but I believe that with a bit of cooperation between our people, the obstacles in front of us shall be reduced from grand mountains to simple mounds. These are trying times, so we must work together.
If not elected, I shall lend my advice to whomever is elected in order to do as much as possible to purify and restore our great State.
Signed,
Gantar of House Lythian, First of his Name.
