A treatise on the nature of Sincadere politics by Reclusiarch Ralathos Gilderman, Count of Helheim, Minister of its Parliament, Holy leader of the Faith and Knight in glorious service to the Crown.
Helheim is a proud Kingdom and one that does not back down from any challenge or threat to its might, and its citizens are well known for their willingness to fight and defend the Kingdom. The recent conflict with the Empire has only proven this, with the last and most recent battle with the Jade Lotus Empire resulting in a distinct victory for the Kingdom of Helheim. However, it is important to remember the history of the land and most importantly that Helheim's greatest threat to its independence and rule is not forgotten. To turn the clocks back and examine recent history, the last great conflict was with the Cabbala. Many within Helheim have a memory of that war and who served in it against the forces of the caves and the many demonic and dark individuals that reside in the Cabbala. Although, there are many more recent arrivals to Helheim that did not serve in that war, including myself. Still, while the war with the Cabbala ended in a treaty, the conflict did not end. Since the war's official end, Helheim has been plagued with constant attacks, schemes and sabotage by the Cabbala. While I serve as the appointed spokesperson for the Gods, it is common knowledge I served in the Helheim Guard for some time. During that time, the mainstay of my duties was chasing down Cabbala attackers and protecting people from assault by Cabbala citizens. Most recently, the former Helheim ally of the Elenion Elves who held a tower on Nascentia was crushed by Cabbala forces and cast into the winds. There are few citizens of Helheim who have not in some capacity seen or been a victim of Cabbala attacks. The most recent war is also a testament to their machinations. The conflict was instigated by an explosion within the Empire that was blamed on Helheim, yet Helheim was innocent. Most recently, the Guard tower in Helheim was blown up. It is my firm opinion that this is the handy work of the Cabbala, who have sought to weaken their rivals by instigating conflict between the Jade Lotus Empire and the Cabbala. Helheim must never forget the danger posed by demonic corruption, dark schemes and that its consistent enemy for the past year has been the Cabbala. Who have routinely never accepted any form of real peace, just avoiding all-out war as they continually harass our Kingdom. As the spiritual guide to Helheim, I call upon all citizens of Helheim to be watchful of the Cabbala and remember that they can never be trusted. That they seek power and chaos only and delight in the agony of others. If Helheim is to truly regain a measure of security and peace in this new age of conflict, the true enemy must be realized and defended against. All of Helheim must come together to build a stronger Kingdom, one free from the manipulations of a cunning and devious foe. By the grace of the Four, may Helheim continue to prosper and may the Gods watch over King Tyr and his family. Signed Count Ralathos Gilderman Reclusiarch of the Basilica Comments are closed.
