Winter has come at the dawn of spring. In times of warmth, rebirth and new life, our people have been met with the frigid hostilities of Houses Harhold and du Pont. These wretched families have turned their backs on the people by invading and occupying the Peirgarten lands for no sense but personal gain. The blood pumping through the veins of these barbaric houses has been poisoned with corruptions of greed and lust for power. Thanks to their selfishness, brothers have been torn from brothers, sisters have been torn from sisters, and mothers have been torn from their children.
Regalia is fighting a war. Instead of uniting to defeat a common enemy, these tyrannical houses choose instead to forward their own agenda by occupying the lands of Lorhauser and terrorizing the citizens of Regalia. House Harhold has the infamous reputation of answering to petty problems with extreme violence and plaguing the streets of Regalia with fear. They have torn men apart with the might of their bloodhounds, beat the innocent to near death, and betrayed the one true faith.
House du Pont, an integral part of the church, has committed deeds most sinful. Their hand in occupying Peirgarten terrain betrays the faith that they are meant to uphold. Rather than serve the Imperial Spirit, House du Pont would prefer to serve themselves. Not even a week before they storm our lands they sit in our home and speak ill of house Ravenstad and their previous occupation of our lands, yet they turn their backs to make the same greedy Their actions are selfish and unholy. As these monsters prey on the innocent, we pray that they will once again find their way with the spirit and return to the pious life of true Unionism.
To the noble houses of Regalia: Do you bend your knee to those who would betray you for their own gain? Do you submit to those who triumph by the spreading of fear and unrest? Do you bow to those who have time and time again proven to the world that they would commit the most treacherous of crimes if it meant more power for them? Do you?
To Houses Harhold and du Pont - You can occupy our lands and torment its leaders, but consider this the day that your actions will no longer lurk in the shadows. Regardless of what happens, we put our trust in the Imperial Spirit to guide us forward. We shall pray that you learn the error of your ways and choose faith over hypocrisy. That you will return to the virtuous path laid out for us by the spirit and part with the tyrannical actions you have thrust upon the people. And should you not do these things - we pray that you accept the consequences with open arms.
To the common men and women of Lorhauser and the entirety of Brissaud: House Peirgarten stands with you against these houses of infamy and greed. The Imperial Spirit will guide us through these difficult days as it has since the dawn of time. Stand tall in the face of hardships and do not lose faith. When you despair, remember that there have been tyrants throughout all of history - but in the end, they always fall.
Winter always ends with Spring.
House Peirgarten
