  1. In Regards to the War in Oren To the citizens of the Silver State, As you may have heard, the Silver State is mobilizing its Sillumiran and other civilians for the purpose of armed assistance of the Iron Accord members at war with Oren. It is the purpose of this letter to clarify the moral atrocities thus committed by the government and the impurities its members are guilty of. Since their inception, the Sillumiran’s sole objective has always been the preservation of purity and the protection of the High Elves and their settlements from foreign invaders. There is nothing pure to be preserved in a conflict involving ‘lesser’ states. By sending the Silver State’s forces forth to fight in foreign lands where neither the progress of the nation nor the health of the citizens is in peril, the Sillumiran become the harbingers of war and destruction and, by extension, differ in no meaningful way from the run-of-the-mill mercenary bands of the lessers. Whatever injuries exist between the people of Norland, Urguan and those of Oren need not and should not be of any concern to those pure enough to resist the brutish urge to cause violence and chaos. Moreover, no grievances actually exist between the Empire of Man and the Silver State of Haelun’or. In fact, no more than fifty years ago, these two nations were in a most harmonious alliance. Now, for those of you Mali’aheral who have the memory of an insect, or who happen to have brains in an advanced stage of biological decay, like our higher-ups, I would like to take a moment to remind you that, had the Orenian Monarchy not come to the aid of the Silver State at the end of Arcas, the entire collection of the Eternal Library would have been destroyed and, worse, most of you would have died then and there on the shores of the continent conquered by Inferi. When our city was sore beset by otherworldly monsters, our allies in Oren generously offered to freely protect and temporarily house our collection of thousands of books. Afterwards, when all the cities of the continent started crumbling, they housed and fed us all in their forts. When those too fell, they welcomed us on their ships, to carry us all to the new continent. Nothing, except mutual respect and goodwill, was ever demanded in return. To attack without cause a state that has proved more than eager to pursue benevolent relations shows the complete lack of moral integrity the leadership of the nation has, as well as the barbaric warmongering ambitions of Othelu. The current objective of the government is not the pursuit of progress, nor of safeguarding the lives of the Mali’thill. Rather, the government proves more eager to gamble the lives of those who enlisted in the Sillumiran, for no worthy goal, only the sole purpose of killing and plunder. Those supportive of such actions of the government have no right to call themselves Mali’thill. To obediently applaud a leadership that is ruining some fifty years of diplomatic endeavors carried by both the Silver State and Oren reveals an abundant impurity within oneself and an utter lack of any characteristic Mali’thill spirit. Those of you that have taken a liking to blood and gore, I personally invite you to further pursue your interests, but in so doing to also sever all ties with the Motherland and join the bands of the armies of lessers, whose actions seem to align more closely to yours. In such a fashion, whatever shadow of Haelun’orian diplomatic reputation still exists can, somewhat, be saved. Those of you uncertain, insecure and afraid in these times of war, normally I would have directed you to seek the Maheral’s counsel but, unfortunately, one is more likely to get the Sun to rise in the West and set in the East than to get the current Maheral to do anything useful for the preservation of purity. And so I will only remind you: There is nothing pure in untimely death. Citizens, study the history of our forefathers, care for your kin, pursue progress and health incessantly, but refuse the call of the government. Lay down your swords and refuse to march on the offensive. Preserve purity. From the Silver District with love, a 'thill. [!] This letter seems to be at every house's doorstep in Haelun'or. Quite clearly, someone was rather busy during the night.
