Many areas still retain Enorian's flag and unlike Bloodloch, we will not
surrender. You will have to conquer us. If you want that land, you have
to go take it, room by room. There will be no treaty handing you entire
areas like that which Bloodloch and Enorian agreed upon simply because
Enorian will not surrender.
You are cocky, Strung. That cockiness cost you 292 Bloodlochian troops
last month under my orders - we lost 80 by comparison.
I am, however, interested in how the Northern Alliance will respond to a
threat of war by Bloodloch against a signing member.
Bottom line - you don't own our lands, so stop acting like you do. You
have numbers over us, I give you that. But our resolve is stronger and
remember - after the Midnight comes the Dawn. You may plunge this world
into Darkness, but the Beacon will rise again.
The occupation will only be for two years at maximum and you cannot
appoint your own people as Viziers, so any attempts to do so would fail.
I think Enorian will survive two years. The question is, with your loud
posts and brash mouth, can Bloodloch survive the Northern Alliance? You
exposed yourself, Strung, and you made it clear what this war was really
about - land and comms. You had all these nice, pretty speeches, but the
ultimate reason is all about greed.
Bloodloch preached that they wanted peace, yet it was the Bloodloch
Council that wouldn't stand up to you when you started this war without
a council vote. Just like it's the Bloodloch Council that is too scared
of you even now to tell you to shut your mouth when you really should.
It will prove to be your own undoing, mark my words.
You, Strung, have become exactly what you preached against and exactly
what you hated most.
We will never surrender, even if you conquer us. Our resolve cannot be
matched. You will learn that. Once you conquer us and you're not allowed
to kill our citizens in groups of seven, what happens then? Your only
tactic -bullying- will be nullified.
I regret having to raise my mace to fight this war, but you attacked my
home. Yet now, before victory is complete, you already are naming your
next target. Amusing, but indicative of the true purpose of Bloodloch
and yourself in this war.
