Yes, I do realize this. However, this is in case agricultural land is taken over. Also, who says there won't be a mystery plague of locust for invading Israel?

Your treacherous attempt to steal Bengal and take it for your own is an afront to us and all our citizens. We will not allow it. Withdraw your troops now.

ooc: Alright before I get started tell me Farrow, did I ever say I was with you?? I didnt want war, I never did, never had any intentions on Denmark, and its only your lies, and the Major's idiocy that has left me with this.

To Novogrod
From Svearland

Welcome brother, we open our arms to you as and look forward to many years of regional partnership.

The Hated Unholy Celtic Empire has indeed attacked us without reason. We left their 'Church' merely due to the fact that it is a political means to control those nations like the Greater Kingdom of Svearland against their will. Now that they have shown their true colours as nothing but hedonistic barbarians intent on tearing down Svearish and all other indpependent culture and civilization I trust that you will know what to do and help us defend our region from this intrusion.

To the Unholy Celtic Empire
From the Kingdom of Svearland

Withdraw now or the graves of your soldiers will remain forever in Svearland. We did not want it to come to this. If only your church was resonable in revoking the unfair 'Protector of the Faith' status that you do not deserve it wouldnt of. We remind you that we alone remained committed to the territorial integrity of Denmark. We see you now as nothing but the warmonger you are.

 

[Perfectionist]

FROM: The Holy Celtic Empire
TO: The Mad King of Svearland

You call us unholy, yet you kill those who dare to disagree with you. You claim to value territorial integrity, yet you attack Norway. You accuse us of being warmongers, yet you refuse to even hear our peace proposal. You have reached a new level of insanity since last we spoke. You wish to fight to the bitter end; very well, we will accommodate you. We assure you, you will have a very bitter end indeed. You will die screaming and be thrown into the forest for the wolves to devour. A murderous heretic like you deserves far worse.

I will have VERY limited internet access from tomorrow on until Wednesday or thursday, so I am being forced to write orders now. I might have time to add / change them, but as I don't know if I can get a computer at all (remote place up north where there is maybe snow right now), and I will send them tonight. I might be able to log on once or twice this weekend and check up on things, but I'm not definite. Orders will be in shortly.

Perhaps you should look at what you are doing yourself before you comment on what others do as well. The Norwegian War was started by my father, due to their Viking raids, which if I remember correctly you were against from the start.

The break with the Celtic Church is due to three main reasons. 1/ The demands you have placed upon Svearland since my ascension to the throne which have been both unjust and without cause. 2/ The continuance of your status as 'Protector of the faith', the armies of Svearland can indeed protect the faithful inside its own borders, and 3/ The fact that England (who seems was playing both sides) not only blantanly lied to your face when it came to the supposed Svearish invasion of Denmark (which I signed a treaty about and I am a man of my word) but also told me that you were invading, told me what you were going to do, where you were going to strike and everything. Open your eyes and stop being so idiotic. This is why we can never accept you for a protector because of the fact that you will believe any fool.

Treachery? Like your king's betrayal of Ireland? He repeatedly stated that he believed peace in the Isles to be sacrosanct, and yet he broke the peace first. He is the traitor. Regardless, we must ask: do you hold loyalty to your country above loyalty to your gods?

[Contempt]

Temujin looked coldly at the still burning wreckage of the village. Bloody bodies were strewn about wildly, all in the direction of the nearby forest. They were trying to flee. They didn't make it. How unfortunate, that they would fight against the Mongol Empire.

"Great Prince, what is your command? Do we rest here for the night?" asked one of his men, his face bloody from when he had fought hand to hand with the unskilled civilians. Temujin had also seen him 'playing' with one of the prettier young Chinese girls. Although that could have easily been a young boy as well.

Temujin didn't exactly care all that much. They were the most ruthless, uncaring men he could possibly assemble. They followed his orders unquestionably, but when not explicitly ordered not to 'have fun', they would go wild with reckless abandon. They were ruthless, unmerciful, cruel, and evil.

They were perfect soldiers, and yet, also the most monsterous beasts that ever lived in the Mongolian Empire. In short, they were damn useful.

"No, we will not rest here. We have many miles to travel before we come upon the rebel camp. The smoke may send a signal to them, and I wish to cut off any recongnition by their scouts. Daybreak is coming, and we must strike soon," said Temujin stoticly, watching the last of the burning embers fade away.

The warrior turned, and screamed out a command. Mounting his horse once more, Temujin watched the destroyed village for a few more long moments before reaching down into his pack, and with drawing an iron mask. Placing it on his face, his men following suit with their own iron masks, he made a motion with his hand, and the horde went on the move again.

Dull black eyes looked out from the slits of the iron mask, a fearful sight to any that saw it. A blood red hand was imprinted upon the mask. The mark of Temujin.

The Army of monsters had begun to move. Soon, the rebel camp would be struck with all the force those monsters possesed.

Open your eyes and stop being so idiotic. This is why we can never accept you for a protector because of the fact that you will believe any fool.

Point one is ridiculous. We never placed any demands upon Svearland. If you recall, this whole dispute started because you repeatedly insulted and threatened the Church and the Empire, simply because we made a peace proposal.
Point two is an outright lie. Your men have been killing people of the faith, simply for disagreeing with you. Moreover, it is not given to you to judge the actions of the Church.
Point three is a pathetic attempt to drive us apart from England. We never informed the English of the details of our plans, so they could scarcely have given them to you.

With regards to the Norwegian War: We were against the raids, this is true. We supported England and Scotland, because their sole aim was to stop the raids. But we never condoned your invasion of Norway. It was not necessary to halt the raiding. We saw it as a simple land grab. Our treaty would have definitively put an end to the raids, yet you rejected it, strengthening that belief.

 

[Sheep]

You have been killing Trinists of Sveralnd cause they seek to disagree with you.
Haha, it wasnt hard to work out your plans once England told me you were attacking.

 

[The Major]

ooc: Alright before I get started tell me Farrow, did I ever say I was with you?? I didnt want war, I never did, never had any intentions on Denmark, and its only your lies, and the Major's idiocy that has left me with this.

It appears Scotland has few allies in this harsh treacherous world...

Treachery? Like your king's betrayal of Ireland? He repeatedly stated that he believed peace in the Isles to be sacrosanct, and yet he broke the peace first. He is the traitor. Regardless, we must ask: do you hold loyalty to your country above loyalty to your gods?

Why must you use grand words to try and place blame elsewhere when it is clear to all you were the mastermind behind it all, the puppiteer behind the curtains...

And again we must state that we find it deplorable that you still use the gods as an excuse to bring war against Scotland and Svearland... if you believe that all who worship differentally than you (which does not include Scotland) should be killed, i believe the large Ctha'r states of the world would have something to say...

When have we ever killed Trinitists? We have fought the soldiers of Svearland, who have been thrown into conflict by an insane heretic. You are to blame for their deaths. Besides, even if we were held accountable for their deaths, there is a large difference between killing soldiers on the battlefield and assassinating priests in a church.

Then tell me, what were my plans? Anyway, you scarcely needed England to tell you that I was attacking. A three year old could have guessed that.

Why must you use grand words to try and place blame elsewhere when it is clear to all you were the mastermind behind it all, the puppiteer behind the curtains...

Yes, we benefit so much from this war, don't we? It is quite clear that we would expend vast amounts of time, money and effort to manipulate Scotland, who was our closest ally merely twenty years ago, into attacking Ireland, our other close ally.

 

[Sheep]

Oh indeed..... Except for it was England's idea first for Scotland to attack Ireland, and Svearland to break with the Church. You know what I have said in private messages to you in regards to the Church.

Now I am neither heritical (as I still worship the Trinity, I just dont do it through your corrupt and politicised church that has lost its way) nor insane. In fact I think you are insane on invading a Kingdom that although had diffrences with you, was never going to attack you, nor Denmark, and futhermore had stopped the Viking raids that blighted not only your lands but those of England and Scotland.

But hey, if you would rather listen to lies than the truth (although the truth I admit isnt always as pretty as lies) then be my guest, and be prepared to meet the full might of Svearland.

 

[The Major]

Vast resources? You are using yet another pawn in this game, England to do your bidding. ( Sheep says it well below )

Edit: It is in fact become more murky by the second whether the Hce is the chessmaster, or whether England takes that role... more unclear by the second....

 

[Sheep]

If you dont benefit, then who does, you should be asking. Perhaps the one that fed both sides lies instead? I really do wonder. Like I said dont be so dumb.

 

[The Farow]

OCC: I would like to point out that I apologize for this scheme. In no way do I want it to cause uneeded fighting. I would like to remind everyone it is just a game. In my view this was the best for my nation and probably the most traitorous thing I have ever done in NESing. Most of what I did was because I thought The Major was pulling a fast one on me so I did this turn two paths.

Please forgive me OOC and lets get on with this game. It is over and behind us. Nothing can be done anymore to stop what happened.

From England
To Trinist Church

We thank you for letting us into your noble and holy alliance.

From England
To Svearland

England offically is severing all ties with the monarch of Svearland. His heathen and mad ways are dividing the Trinists in the face of real danger. Any further division could cause the C'tharist to make further advancements towards Europe.

 

[The Major]

Don't worry farrow, i hold no grudge ooc... although whenever i get into anything with you it seems i get the short end oh the stick *cough* vlakan *cough* ...but in game i tend to hold the biggest grudge you've ever seen (as long as im scotland)

From: Scotland
To: Trintist nations

You seem to recognize only two religions... and to you anything against the Trinist Church is something for the C'tharist front.

The clergy sees your alliance with the English as the treachery.
