Shireroth

itelemalu 31 omesena isakona 5901Baron Ardashir Khan Osmani, you are accused by your people of an attack on sacred Truth and Beauty and the principles we all hold dear. You have pillaged Elwynn's towns, raped her culture, and slain or driven off her citizens. While I respect Duchess Greenwood's choice of a successor, this goes only so far. Therefore, I decree the following:That you shall be placed under house arrest in your palace until the charges against you can be brought to a conclusion.That all laws made since your ascent to the throne be overturned, and the law code of Elwynn returned to its status upon the resignatin of Duchess Greenwood.That three lots of the Paladins of Hyperborea be sent to enforce order, under the command of whoever Count Volak deems appropriate.That the Baron and his detractors be permitted to address the Duke with their respective cases to decide the Baron's fate.

Well.. Since this is a purely internal matter.. I won't interfer but... a bit odd. Mortis BrookshireKaiser of Shireroth

Duke Siskind, I cannot help but think you will come to regret this decision. Edited by: Emir of Raspur at: 1/25/04 7:14 am

It's certainly a funny way to treat an ally.

Perhaps they're trying to tell us something.

Nothing that happens between myself and Ardashir here in Shireroth has any bearing to Babkha. If I dislike the way Ardashir is running his Barony, then that is a completely internal matter and has nothing to do with my or Shireroth's opinions of Babkha or of Ardashir's job as a Grand Vizier there.If you believe that our alliance entitles Babkhan citizens to preferential treatment within Shireroth, you are wrong. Our alliance extends to support in case of defensive war, which we will give, and to support and friendship in peacetime, which we have given and will continue to give. There is nothing that says that we have to let Babkhan citizens continue to occupy noble positions in Shireroth if we don't want to.If there are any terms of our alliance you feel Shireroth has not followed to the utmost of its capacity, I strongly suggest you bring them up in my office so we can discuss the problem and perhaps make amends for it.

No, what you've done is completely within your rights. There's no denying of that. It's just the morality of the decision, along with some other things that have happened recently that make us wonder.

As you command, Elder. Vitamin G

The Orcs of Elwynn forest remain loyal to Baron Osmani and will fight for him!(Just think, if we were all getting laid none of this would be happening! )

The Orcs are loyal to the Baron? That doesn't really help his case.And, frankly, the Orcs and pixies and whatsits can be as belligerent and hostile as they please, because I'll still control the forum. I am your god! Vitamin G

Hey Locke.

Alright everyone. Just calm down. I will not have this turn into a battlefield so I ask that the flaming and insults be taken elsewhere. Now I'm not taking sides in this issue, as it is a purely Dukal matter and has no bearing on the Imperial Government. I would point out that the actions of the Duke of Hyperborea toward the Baron of Elwynn in NO way express any feelings of hostilities from Shireroth toward Babkha. As it stands Shireroth considers Babkha a close Ally and Friend. A Friendship that has endured for more than a year. Mortis BrookshireKaiser of Shireroth

No, endure it doesnt, you had your chance and you blew it. Goodbye.

Shireroth is very sorry to hear that Babkha is willing break off a historically strong friendship for such petty reasons. Nevertheless, we hope that our relationship can stay strong and friendly without the formal alliance, if such is your course of action.

You do realize what Scott did as Duke.. is a purely internal Shireroth matter. And in NO way has anything to do with Babkha. His action would have been the same whether you were a Treesian, Atteran, or whatever other nation. Mortis BrookshireKaiser of Shireroth

We doubt that highly.

Now why is that? I know Scott.. He doesn't tend to just do things for spites sake.. and I doubt anyone else knew he was gonna do it. If you wish to leave, that is your choice. But please, don't take your anger out on both our nations. and do something foolish like cancel the Alliance and/or destroy a friendship that has lasted since the first Shah.
