A missive is propagated within the Druidic Order's living walls.
"Lately a great shadow has sprung forth from the depths of the jungle. A threat to us all, indeed. That is without question. If the Prince has his way, none of us will survive his reign. As my totem does, I too walk the line between mankind and the Wilds, hoping to bring peace one day-- And so, I know in which world my allegiance lies. September must fall; He is a symbol of an extremist view, a contentious opinion... But what he is doing, is it truly against the Aspects' will?
Perhaps you believe that being grown from a dream makes the Prince a corruptive influence, for nothing of any other realm can be natural. But what is a dream? A manifestation of thought, a wish. And a powerful dream, a dream of many he is. At his core, he desires an end that would be most favorable to the Wilds: Total extinction of descendant-kind, a return to a world that only the Aspects may touch. An end to mankind's greed and exploitation, molestation of the Wilds. You who claim to serve the Wilds yet deny that end are being false with yourself. You deign to act in the Aspects name, yet fight against an embodiment of their most extreme ideals.
I have heard that Druids caught cohorting with September are put on queue to be unattuned, and I ask: Why? What purpose would it serve to remove them from the Wilds after the war is done? Is what they want truly so egregious to our duty as Druids? As men, yes, we should fight- But as Druids, we have no right to use our gifts against them, not in such a vile way. The power and goal that the September Prince represents is not one that you should spiritually contend with, but morally disagree with. Those Druids that fall under his influence truly are doing what they believe would serve the Wilds the greatest. What claim do you have that you are doing the same? None. You fight for your husbands, wives, children and homelands.
As one who walks the line, I know that I fight with descendant-kind, no delusion of doing so as a Druid. You appear confused.
In war, one does not look down on the people who fight, but the one who brought it upon them. Fight the power, not the people.
