Dear Friends,
When I first dropped into the forums over about half a year or so ago, I came with the novel idea of publicly policing the tyranny of all alignments. Many of the existant players and guilds complemented me on the new aim I took towards this ideal, and for the longest time it stayed that way.
Sure, Tony's bakery, Shadowhaven, and other dens of vileness exist, but I had the unique position, the position of the revolutionary. The fringer. The idealist.
And, in the short span of about two months or less we have close to four other organizations, the Milani Accord people, Vigilant, Tuariasindgbgaobdsaop-im-D thing (I love you Taur-im-Duinath guys, you know that), and now Demoyn's brain-child: Paragon's of Righteous Odium.
We all share common, if not identical goals, and we all have varying methods of doing so. I don't begrudge you all for joining me in my crusade but I will say this, none of us can do it alone. I myself have built up an already modest network with fingers stretching from Brighthaven to Golgotha. I don't expect anyway to share plans or open alliances or anything stupid like that, nor do I want names, places, etc.
What I would like to offer, then, is an information exchange network. I think you all know and can figure the merit in this. So please, dear friends, join me.
Also, some will think I am stupid for pointing this out in public, or that I am making a mistake, or that I am trying to trick you. To this I will respond, any true player in this game will know these networks exist, and indeed will have been building them up themselves. It is, of course, the nature of politics. It is nothing new. What is new is my willingness to come out here in public to demand it while you sycophants and you schemers sit behind barred doors making treaties you only dare shine light upon until you are certain of your position or are too desperate to wait. It is you, hiding in the shadows, spouting light, spreading darkness, that are the true plagues of this world.
I am a force for good, a necessary evil. It is not with anger or frustration, joy or humility, or even passion that I bring to you the truth of true freedom.
A great man said "He who would make his own liberty secure must guard even his enemy from oppression; for if he violates his duty he establishes a precedent that will reach to himself."
So take these thoughts into your homes, into your taverns, your barracks. Place them as a mantle about your shoulders, lay bare your soul to yourself, cast your eyes about you my friends!
Do not tary. Do not falter. Do not, in the eyes of existence, reach to the the reflection of the light and say when you have grasped the fleeting smoke between your fingers "I know what happiness is"! I say to you now, only when one is in full control of his own can he truly know what happiness is to him, and what it feels like.
Do not seek to spread downy wings and ascend into the sky when you cannot even see the shackles you tie to your own feet.
So be it!
You know who I am, or if you do not you will. We all have much work to do.
Always Watching,
Brother Letholdus Zael
Edit: this is all IC by the by. Also, was nicer to the elves.
