Re: First signs of a war
This is true folly. There was naught but offers of peace from Ermor and a fair trade of provinces. We do not consider it greedy to seek through trade a border province to our own capitol. Would the mighty Vanir tolerate such an incursion? We think not. The legions were sent when our offers were denied.
Still however the senate of Ermor sees hope for peace. We have sent terms and await a reply. The city and senate of Ermor may indeed fall to the barbaric might of these fey creatures who mask their appearance with play of light, but they will do so honorably, and any attempt to color our glorious nation as one of greed will be dashed by the blinding white light of truth. It is not the perogative of the stronger nation to castigate the weaker as greedy and threatening, while their troops stand before the weaker nation's gates! All who possess sense can see that.
For the glory of the white shroud, the legions of Ermor may be cut down to a man, but they will do so in defense of their homes, and not in agression.
