Mourning Turns to Justice
Posted by Preston on 02/10/19
The Faith has mourned and prayed for those Templars and Mercies lost on the Great Road, attacked by cultists wearing Valardin armour and seeking to place Arvani swords at Arvani throats. We know many of the Faithful have sought vengeance on their own terms, but the time for that is past. Now the Faith acts.
Those who attacked our Brothers and Sisters are heretics who look to the Abyss for power, this much has been confirmed to us. There can only be one response to this - those who committed this act are outside not only the law, but the love of the Gods, and we shall not suffer them to pollute our Arvum with their continued existance. Accordingly I have this morning sent messengers across the Oathlands to every Parish, requesting that the Seraphs send a portion of their Templars to muster. I have also begun speaking with noble Lords and Ladies and our skilled diplomats who will begin the work of speaking to Abandoned tribes innocent of these heresies, and offering them religious guidance and eventual home by bending the knee, or escort away from the path of our army, for Gloria demands we save the innocent.
This is no Crusade, this is a campaign the Templars lead to fight an enemy who has attacked all of us by attacking the Faith. Yet, I call upon the noble houses of the Oathlands and other nearby houses to join us - to send nobles, send a portion of their House troops. Put aside these border conflicts that have risen up once again, instead find unity under the banner of the rings of the Faith. Fight instead with us, fight with honour, defend the innocent, help those in need, and vanquish the enemies of the Gods.
Valardin, Lycene, Islander, Redrain or Grayson - our unity as a people is made manifest in the Faith, and the Faith was born in the Oathlands.

The Order of Eastern Light stands with the Templars on this and will offer our aid in any way that we can.

Stahlben's doors still stand open for those Prodigals and Abandoned that wish to relocate away from these conflicts, and we are happy to provide escort for any that want it.
--- Blackram Stance (from Teagan) ---
House Blackram stands with the Templars looks forward to seeing Arvum joined in aiding them on their quest. May more doors be opened to refugees who seek safe harbor.
--- Redrain Stance (from Marian) ---
House Redrain stands strong in support of our allies. Offering Abandoned tribes the opportunity to bend on knee to enjoy the benefits of the Compact's protection. We stand by at the borders, ready to support the Faith militant if these troubles spill into Northlands.
