The Undeniable Truth

[microwavemmm]

Issued from the Ministry of Truth is what is (probably) a final decree.

While it is inevitable that I shall be cast from my place as the Minister of Truth following this publication, I revoked my right to power the moment I opened my heart to the wicked wiles of a Mage. No longer do I possess such an unnatural and unforgivable partnership, and every breath I take from this day forward is one allowed by the tentative grace of the Lothar Order as I dedicate myself and my talents to their righteous cause.

Allow me to take the first step with this decree as I repent.

The state's corruption nests far deeper than the Grand Vigil or the precious Regalian public know. As you, the citizen, gazes upon these words of unrequitable truth, I beg of thee not to panic or fall to dismay, but to look to the good and righteous Grand Vigil Felix Valdemark Vítek and ride with him. This is your duty as servants of the Everwatcher and professors of all that is good and pure.​

━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━​

The names of the (known and certified) corrupted, out of all currently appointed Regalian state officials, are as follows:

COUNT FLORIAN DU PONCAIRE & STATE GOVERNESS FABIENNE DU PONCAIRE: VAMPIRES AND DEMON CONTRACTORS.

Count Florian du Poncaire has only been cured of the Sanguine curse in recent weeks, to which he has been sickeningly enjoying for a devastatingly long time beforehand. In the present day, he continues to uphold an old contract with the "Arken of Pride", a most heinous demon of terrifying power and origins. He has admitted such to myself directly. The State Governess has been exposed to the greatest extent of Occult sin and encouraged it in silence.


TRENT NATHAMLANNË, MAYOR OF CROOKBACK: DEMON SERVANT.

Trent Nathamlannë has likely told whoever has interrogated him over the matter that his service to the Arken of Justice ended with what he was "forced" into in terms of providing it a list of vampires. This is not the case. It was revealed to me, while long ago attending a dinner party hosted by the Rilynnlues family of nobility, that his service continued with the Justice demon in order to magically empower his criminal wife, Fen'nan. Once a pact is made with an entity of evil, it is not ever undone. The only escape is death.


MINISTER OF LAW, SUZENVAELA FELAADAR: ALLORN SPY.

Minister Felaadar, a Mage born corrupted with the essence of a non-Unionist god, is related to one "Naravan" Felaadar, confirmed Allorn infiltrator and terrorist intending to uproot the Regalian Empire from within. It is truly devastating to know that our very own laws are under influence of wicked and foreign forces. Our only guide now are those who seek true reform, to return our Empire to its former glory.

━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━

This paper is not posted with malice, nor jealous spite of being exposed myself. I am making amends with my wretched mistake. I truly beg of you to trust me, even if it must be for a final time, that the words and information I share with you now are of undeniable truth.

Only the Everwatcher can forgive us now.

I am sorry.​

Under his Eye,
Terrence, Minister of Truth.​

[fantuinn]

In the high rise of floralcourt's tower, a final entry makes a Sollerian knight cringe. Nerves flow out in a laugh that is absolutely fake, and a jab to the air like it might disperse what he knows will soon be a great struggle.

".. So much for grilling."

 

[weatherbyrd]

Avox read over the paper- Grumbling at the mentions of the Lothar, the woman's clawed digits tapping against her armrest. ".. Please. Don't deny this as spite- If it were out of the goodness of your heart, you'd of released this earlier.. Frankly, i'm glad to see some dogmatics practicing the more.. Evintarian tenets, of vengeance. At least I know who to watch out for, now." She then stood, and began packing her things- A small bugout bag, prepared for if and when the Lothar came.

 

[Winterless]

An Aelriggan reads the announcement, releasing a scoff of mixed amusement, surprise, and disappointment.

"Nice of you to withhold such vital intel on potential traitors until the moment your job was at risk."

 

[HeyItzAPotato]

Later that evening, during the iconic puppy playdate/tea party amongst the gaggle of sorority members noblewomen, a courier handed off a paper to each of them.

The Baroness looked up, then to all of the present individuals. A conflicted, upsetting expression washing over her features. She was, for one of the first times among them, worried.

"Everwatcher save us all."

Glancing over the paper the courier handed her, her finger traced the words with a low hum escaping her. Her expression soured before she finally spoke up to the group.

"A shame really, two of them are signed up for my fashion show..."

Her gaze then flickered to Gabrielle as she gave a knowing look as if addressing her with the words before finally sipping on her cup of tea, leaving a small tinted stain on the rim from her lipstick.

 

[Wilvahelm]

"No way," Clovis said as he read the notice while drinking a coffee and eating a monte cristo in his office.

 

[InversedGremlin]

A disgruntled noise left the halfling, the decree being abandoned on her desk for some time before she returned to it. The Mage's hands shook as she re-read the letter. It felt as though the message had a body, one that was clawing at her face while the other hand worked to strangle her. Nerves and anger took her over as she tossed the letter into her fire.

"What has become of Regalia? I... What is happening?"

She watched the papers turn into ash, a stoic expression settling over her face. Time to prepare for the worst, the woman concluded as she rose from where she sat. With shaking hands and tears threatening to spill from her anger, she prepared a bag to return home before she could not.

 

[HereticTakao]

Kabili Drulviirn read the decree with their brows furrowed the entire time. Any witnesses could recount what they said, along with a translation of the Pannarokh insult they used. "Disappointing. I really thought he would be an ally against the Lothar scourge. Then again, San-kiir like him are everchanging like the wind, you never know who or what they stand for."
If anyone inquired what 'San-kiir' meant, language experts would tell them that it meant to denote someone had 'no pride' & 'were without self-esteem, and hungry for validation'.

 

[Rowet]

A notice is penned in reply, elegantly scripted - yet with a shaky hand that
trembles from a wound cut deeper than any blade from a Death Cultist could.

To the Minister of Truth, Terrence,
​

You have a flair for the dramatics when you are being thrown overboard & did not come to me, whatsoever, in person about your (& I presume others') concerns with my brother. I heard he was rude. Abrasive. Unruly. Violent. Did not know basic etiquette. But never a spy from other people. I was relieved to see him after all these years & took him under my wing to make up what I've done to him. I had my suspicions, admittedly, due to the way Naravan conducts himself, so I did not share any critical information regarding the Law Ministry with him - and to hear these concerns voiced on a large paper on a board, rather than in person is .. Blood-boiling, and anguishing, especially from another Minister.

But, to shed light on your truth when it is nothing more than fragile slander to myself:

Where is your evidence about me being a spy? What the Grand Vigil Felix Valdemar Vítek wrote, about a 'Knife ear with Allorn loyalties' holding Government office to sow the seeds of unrest, because I, and Mayor Trent & Commissioner Meriyaan Cavaal, the only other 'knife ears' holding office - are Occult? Is it because I am a daughter of a non-Unionist Goddess - who might I add, sleeps with every woman she lays her eyes on? Is it because I have no resemblance of an Ailor, and instead, bear the heritage of a full Teledden?

.. Whatever the reason may be; I mean this with my heart & not an ounce of malice. I am hurt, angry & upset, but most of all I am concerned:
I hope you are well, Minister.

To Naravan,
​

You are no longer my brother. You are no longer recognized as a member of my family. I have nothing more to say to you.

Signed,
Minister of Law,
Suzenvaela Felaadar bel-Evalond

"Man, and people say I can't be trusted. Tch." Rhonzae shakes her head looking at the post while drinking her glass of milk.

Meanwhile in Lorhauser, a certain firey woman seemed to be training only to be called by her servant, Hannah. "My Lady, there has been grave news in the city." She informed and showed the missive.

Elewisa Peirgarten gazes at the paper only to glare at the words. "Finally some goddamn truth from the Truth Ministry."

It would seem that the Minister of truth once again fails to live up to the name, making a notice full of accusations in an attempt to defame half the governing body.

I ask this, where is the proof? and if the minister has such evidence, why wait until they are being exposed for their own failings to release it? Why attempt to do this for any reason but to make themselves look better? Their ministry has achieved precious little in its time in operation, their oldest patient in Sabina Holzfäller is as far as one need look for the effectiveness of their treatment methods, who since the ministry formed, have been infected time and time again, and used that position to benefit traitors like Reimar.

Or the instance in which they purposely hid a Marken from the state metropolitan, and I believe we all know how effective that was for Mister River.

They accuse the state governess of supporting a vampire.

They accuse myself of dealing with demons, when the dinner they mention as their proof was five months ago. Which would be odd for a minister of truth not to mention in all this time, falsehoods without any bearing of truth.

They accuse the law minister of being an Allorn agent...for being an Nelfin, for being of 'dirty blood'. How progressive of the minister.

This is nothing but a poor attempt at saving face. To make themselves look competent, when really it proves they are anything but>

Think on this, either they have lied to try to look better, or they have had this information for some time and done nothing with it. Even now, they do nothing but attempt to rally public support, as they know these accusations hold no weight but rumors.​

Regards, Trent Nathamlanne, Crookback Mayor​

At Karlisle House, the von Karlisle residence in the city, the flames flickered in the fireplace as the Count-Sera read through the proclamation's draft. Through a curved lip, he spoke out loud;

"Now, the Hunt truly begins."

A letter was stamped beneath, alongside all the other leaflets that fluttered.
​

Terry,

A man is only worth as much as his word. Your worth has dwindled so far in the course of only a day with no one, but yourself to blame. Do not try and place your cowardice on me, do not attempt to paint me as someone that manipulates the good people of this Empire, when I have bled and killed in near every conflict that has threatened these lands for years before your name was even known.

You have bent my kindness and trust to make yourself a martyr of the Occult, when it was I who attempted to meet you halfway. How many months did I try to appease you by minimizing my magic? How many times did I strap a Gods-forsaken brace around my leg, that pinched my flesh, in order to ensure your comfort? More times than you made any sacrifice for me until others were threatened- and even then, it was I that was thrown out with your dirty bathwater.

If I am the one who is unforgiving, when your ilk would happily watch you burn; so be it. I will not waste my time defending a man that berates my name in an attempt to salvage his own.​

Signed,
Gwenfrewi the Witch
​

Additionally:
If your rotted out, disgusting family sends their mutts after me again, they will be returned to you in a casket. You have been warned.​

Topilli squints, before convincing a passing Ailor to read the notice for him.

"A beautiful city, collapsing in on itself in a manner of days."

River squinted at the letter, adjusting his glasses. He couldn't help but scoff.

"Nice fucking job, Terrence. What a way to lie about the people you helped. In no way have they done such."

He rolled his eyes, pulled a pen out, and wrote, in big letters, LIAR. He then took off, pulling his hood over his head for now.

[PaladinoGui]

To The Regalian Public,

While the claim that either I or Suzenvaela are somehow infiltrators is obviously ridiculous and spurred by both xenophobia and racial prejudice, there is something to be said about the aforementioned Minister's shameful and disappointing behavior in office, but not for the nonsensical reasons the Truth Ministry has extrapolated.

In fact, it is much to the contrary.

I wish my sister had my sense of religious zealotry, so that sinners would have something to fear, on the streets and courts equally.

I wish my sister had my sense of ambition, so we could have continued to rise above our station, ever higher than what we are.

I wish my sister had my sense of pride, so we could change Regalia, into what made the Ivaella of old great.

Instead, ever since the moment we arrived in this city as immigrants, Suzenvaela has fallen in love with Regalia and its way of life. I held steadfast, and tried to guide her in the correct path.

But despite my urgings, she has exercised the function of Minister exactly by the Law, instead of judging sinners harshly as they deserve.

But despite my urgings, she has never had great ambition above doing her duty as Minister, or used it to benefit her station.

But despite my urgings, never has she looked back to her past and heritage with pride, and instead utterly rejected it for the Regalian system , its way of life and Judiciary.

It is for those reasons, thus, that I condemn this Regalian shill. She has failed in her functions as a Roseborn, and I refuse to call her family any longer.

But as for me?

My crusade will not only continue, but intensify. The growing Lothar and Truth Ministry influence has convinced me that my work should not be limited to the sinners that call the Sewers and Crookback Proper their homes.

In illegality, I become free. In illegality, I crystalize.

For Estellon- All will know Justice.

Signed,
A True Rose.

Nnoctor seemed to find this all very funny. He left a response of his own, seemingly dictated to some auto-write device.

"The people in this city sure are DRAMATIC. I mean, regardless of how many people call you a liar, you've just torn this town to shreds! My fellow people who do not fear otherworldly power, I suspect the cowards are about to turn up the heat. To those of the occult, including those accused in this message, such as our dear Mayor Trent, you have the full support of my corporate arm. And you're going to need it. More than ever before, this city thinks we're monsters. And if we're going to be treated like monsters, we better get some fangs."
