Once the respected opponent concluded, Nuala began by clearing her throat. The elfess would scan the gathering of Silver with a bright smile on her face. "I unfortunately am aware how many of you dislike me and are never going to forgive me for my past mistakes. Many of you will rather see me melt in acid than ever to see me hold any power. While this is unfortunate, I ne blame you. As I have said, I am by no means perfect and regardless of my old age I still am prone to mistakes. However, it is of vast importance that we learn from them. We follow the Maehr'sae to progress from our past selves. We ensure that we live up to the teachings of Larihei and renew ourselves as is needed for the betterment of the Bastion." You seemed to denounce the Diarchy rather quickly, why should we believe you? "I urge you follow your heart. Words are always just words and I can not force anyone to believe me. While the sentiment of the Diarchy remains, it was Malaurir Avern'dionn that shared her blessed words. That wisdom, is what made me think. I am however, a Mali'thill and we shall not lie. My words remains true, Mali'thill." What about the words of your opponent? "She is a Mali'thill and a very strong candidate.- Surely more famous than I am. Her plans are very much valid and something that everyone should consider voting for. I see no reason on attacking her speech or undermining her plans as Sohaer." What will you do as Sohaer? "First things first we need to ensure peace within our bastion. We must ensure we don't get into a war with anyone, however we also must ensure that justice is brought to our kin. It is the job of the Sohaer to represent our Blessed Bastion abroad, in the name of the Blessed Maheral. As I mentioned, I am by no means perfect; thus it would be of vast importance that I work together with the serving heial'thilln, blowing into the same fire to ensure that we shall not remain, but move forward. As it comes to the purity of our kin as well as within our bastion; such shall be done working with the Maheral, under his advice. For only the Epitome of Purity may guide us into the right direction. " You are aware of how many dislike you, why are you running still? "I serve my kin until the very last breath I take. I have done wrong to some individuals and I apologize for it. I shall redeem myself and prove myself in the eyes of the Mali'thill. Now while I understand the Sohaership is a rather high position for such; I have exclaimed that I am happy to do so by the farms. Ensuring that our people are served with proper meals. I have sent missives much more than many; I can not keep apologizing forever. I know that I may not please everyone but there are people who do want me in the government. Now it may or may not be less than my opponents, but I own it to those to make sure I am progressive. I would not dare to call myself Mali'thill if I was to stop serving my nation and my Maheral. " Is there anything else you would wish to add? "I might lose this elections and perhaps even the next one, however I shall not give up. Whether you vote for me or not, I am blessed to be able to call you my kin." With that the Telperion offered a curtsy to the crowd that was ever so silent. Not a singular boo, not a singular clap. Mali'thill idly looking at the woman. As Nuala Telperion turned away, she would stop; looking forward into empitness and yell. "AY'LARIHEI"

Hello to the magnificent people of LotC! I got an idea and wanted to execute it so here we go. I wanted to start a little project of mine introducing people to the rest of the server! Nothing big, nothing official just being cute and wholesome. I also want to add that this is not an official project by moderation or any staff team but just my personal little thing that I wanted to do!! P.s You do not get any prices for participating. Without further ado: Here is Rin, she has been part of LotC since 2017! Meaning, 2021 would mark her 4th anniversary on the server (that is a rather big deal I'd say). She firstly joined simply because a friend told about the server and she decided it's worth giving shot. I would say this is something familiar to many of us! You are a donator, why did you decide to use your money for LotC? - I bought VIP about a month ago to have access to bold and italics, and to support the server. Tell me your three favorite things about LotC! - My 3 favorite things about LOTC are how intricate all the server plugins are, how close knit the community is, and just how addicting it is to play! If you have any hobbies, would you care to share them with the community? - I enjoy playing saxophone and reading books. (saxophone?! That's so super duper cool!!!) Tell me three of your favorite things! - My 3 favorite things are driving, earthy smells and making friends. A random fact about yourself? - A random fact about me is that I can sleep for 15 hours at a time. As wonderful LotC is, we aren't perfect! Tell me three of your least favorite things! - My 3 least favorite things about LOTC are the server lag sometimes making pvp hard, how royalty in some places only sticks to the same 3 people, and some people metagaming sometimes. Favorite color? - Pink! Favorite food? - Sushi! (AHHH girl same) Pineapple on pizza? Yes or no? - I wouldn't put pineapple on pizza on purpose but I wouldn't say no to eating it. So, if any of you would wish to make new friends, Rin is exactly the person to contact! You can get in touch with her on discord @ Rin is Alive#0001 or via the forums @RinBun

PROGRESS IS THE REPUBLIC Dear citizens, dear friends and foremost dear my beloved Mali’thill, As the former Sohaer, Maheral Eredael has ascended into a position of much more significance; the seat of the Sohaer now remains vacant. Our bastion is still burdened with a hole in leadership. Many missives I have sent and many words I have shared with my peers and I hope now is the time to let go of differences and work together towards unity. We are Mali’thill, no other race can even dream of what we have achieved, thus we shall work as Mali’thill. During these past months I have worked to educate myself and to redeem myself. I have apologized to my family for my uneducated actions towards them. Hence, I am formally renouncing the ideology of The Diarchy. While the sentiment remains, I understand that no true nation of Silver can be achieved by other means than a true republic. It took a long time for me to understand that, however I urge you to pass me understanding, I am an old elf who has lived more or less their whole life under a different form of governing. Following the renouncing of the Diarchy; I am nominating myself for the vacant position of elSohaer. Many of you are aware of my achievements; while I by no means am perfect I know my former workings do give me a foothold for said position. My expertises are in working with other races under the topic of diplomacy. I governed the city as Okarir’mali and for centuries worked under different Okariran as their tilruir. I know the city, I know the people and most importantly I know Maehr’sae Hiylun’ehya. I am a bold Mali when it comes to politics. I express my opinions louder than many. However, that is what we need. We need Mali that are capable of moving mountains with a single push. We need Mali that have the passion of a thousand suns to ensure the progress and health of our humble Bastion of Silver. I rule with peace; one of my first actions as Sohaer would be to ensure we maintain relations with our allies. The next is to ensure peace with those we currently have issues with. We are not a violent race, that is why it is important we aim for peace rather than war. War only means the loss of Mali’thill blood. It would be my pleasure to work in the name of the Blessed Maheral Eredael. Many nominations will follow once this missive goes public and I look forward to see each and one of them. AY'LARIHEI AY'MAHERAL EREDAEL MAEHR'SAE HIYLUN'EHYA Signed, Nuala Telperion

Farewell, may life forever treat you well.

“A noble dream I must admit. However- The unity of the Mali can never happen until we learn to accept the fact that the one’s of Larihei are simply above all. It is likewise within my dreams, dear cousins but many oppose it.” Commented Nuala Uradir as she heard the words of unity, a smile would grow on her face but then quickly disappear, as she realized the Mali can never reach true harmony.

"Luckily I am not alone in the fight against impurity." Said Nuala Telperion as she casually passed the missive, holding a glass of wine with her left hand, wandering around city.

”Shall my son lead this Blessed Bastion into greatness, Ay’Larihei, Ay’Maheral” The Telperion remarked as she noted the missive

“We might not, however your father is one of the only friends that have not once left my side. As his kin, you earn my respect. Eredael simply is not. You, Malaurir are.” Nuala spoke to Aiera as she passed the missive to her “My challenge to Malaurir Ikur was done out of fumes.- Perhaps if this happened when I was more liked I would’ve been Maheral, however I never am. You are the epitome of purity. While I do admit to being a loyalist, perhaps even a Diarchist; we all know who’s loyalty to purity and the Silver State is undying.” The Telperion concluded

As the mantle of the most sacred has been passed to the Maheral Maehr’indor, whom then quickly retired, the leaches lingering within the tiniest cracks of our society, arise. To suck the tiniest amounts of power they can. Those who wish to hurt the very purity of our people and those who have no regard to our ancient traditions. Heed my words my brothers and sisters of silver, as our very nation is now threatened from within. To be Maheral, you do not challenge nor do you apply. You either are or you are not, and let me tell you, Sohaer, you are not nor will you ever be Maheral. You are a criminal; this is treason of the highest degree. My beloved kin, Children of Silver; for long you have known me and for long you know my loyalty is to the Silver State. While my means are questionable, never shall my love hinge. I am of Larihei and of Larihei I shall become. I, Nuala Telperion, the daughter of Qwynaeth and Moederai Uradir call upon the citizens to acknowledge the Maheral Aiera Sullas. With that, as you disregard our purity Eredael, I accuse you not only of treason but also of impure mind. Unable to serve in the position of Sohaer. Only together can we evaporate those attacking us. AY'LARIHEI AY'MAHERAL AIERA Signed, Nuala Telperion

“The Sacred seat of the Maheral is to represent Larihei Herself. It is only the Malauriran and the Maheral whom may pass such. Sohaer, you are mixing the Epitome of our Purity to a public office seat, an Okarir or the one you currently hold. Your disregard to ancient traditions as was told by our forefathers disgusts me. To attack the Maheral is to attack our purity. To attack our purity is to attack our kin” Said Nuala Telperion as she heard the horrendous news

“Finally, they listen. I ne care about them lingering within our walls but the current contract needs to be rewritten. It needs to be clear that the glorified lizards are not above the Silver Law” As Nuala read the missive, a smile would form on her face. The elfess walking around the snowy city of Silver, pestering everyone as usual.

Issued as of 5th of The Deep Cold, 4 SA A request of review for Okarir’tir & Elheial’thilln, Below this are listed laws that are believed broken by the Archdrakaar, azdrazi as well as their sympathizers. We humbly request the future Okarir’tir alongside the most respected Silver Council summon a Silver Tribunal. May only the Pariran’tir judge the personnel whom are accused of breaking the laws mentioned below: ARTICLE 6. The Blessed Residents of The Silver State of Haelun’or will not tolerate the purity of their citizens purposely tarnished out of hedonistic glee. Purity is not in the eyes of the beholder. It is in the venerated manners of our Mali’thill ancestors where we find guidance in purity. It is not enough that one’s heart is pure--for only when one’s mind and blood remains unmuddied can true purity be gained. The Azdrazi as well as the worshippers of the Archdrakaar are accused of tarnishing purity of their own as well as those around them in order to receive power, for hedonistic glee. ARTICLE 8. The Blessed Residents of The Silver State of Haelun’or will not tolerate purposeful mutilation of oneself. To ensure the purity of body of all residents of the State, the mutilation of one’s body for reasons aesthetic is hereby banned. Medical licensing and governmental approval can be acquired by those with individual needs, but the harming of one’s own body through piercing and other means is, as is necessary for soundness of mind, to be rejected. This extends to the dyeing of one’s hair. The Azdrazi as well as others worshipping the Archdrakaar are accused of mutilating one’s body by the means of tattoos. Some are accused of even fully destroying their Mali’thill body in order to descend as an Azdrazi. ARTICLE 11. The Blessed Residents of The Silver State of Haelun’or will not tolerate any attempts at the conversion of Mali’thill to religious or otherwise impure beliefs. To assault the mental purity of the Mali’thill through attempting to sway them to religious belief is a deed most unbecoming. No preachers or missionaries will be permitted to spread their beliefs or ideals within The Silver State. The Archdrakaar Azdromoth the First-Born, as well as his subjects and other followers are accused of religious/impure conversion of Mali’thill. Too many Mali’thill have forsaken the teachings of Larihei & Maehr’sae Hiylun’ehya, under the influence of the dragon kin. ARTICLE 4. The Blessed Residents of The Silver State of Haelun’or shall not participate in fraternization of any intimate sort with impures, or other races. Preservation of life itself resides in the idea of purity. To lay waste to one’s untainted mali’aheral blood is a crime no less potent than murder of another citizen. To fraternize with an Azdrazi who has forsaken their Mali’thill body is impure, as they are no longer Mali’thill. Such is in violation of our laws and must be judged as per our laws state. Signed, Nuala Telperion

I love it

[!] Dust seems to decorate the ancient parchment. The corners of the paper have but crumbled. It is clear this letter is old, at least a couple centuries, perhaps even more. To the beloved daughter, It was a beautiful day. Choirs consisting of different birds, all singing in tune. The sun and the moon facing each other, how magical it felt. It was right then when Gwynaeth took a look at me, her face filling with joy as you were delivered into this world. Nuala, we decided to call you. For the never ending respect for Gwynaeth’s beloved llir. A child, born under the darkening sun. You are meant for greatness. Your life will be filled with ups and downs, however Uradir blood runs through your veins; that purity shall always guide you forward. Nothing and no one can ever deny your birthright. If it is ever that we may not meet again, never forget that your haelun and maln loves you, Nuala of Uradir. Signed, Moederai Uradir, a proud father

Cool!
