Indeed it has come to pass that, as was predicted by the far-seeing Eagle Kings, Abysia has broken its pact with Caelum and now prepares to wrap its charred claws around the highest peaks of this world. The prophets of al-Lat therefore entreat the gods to gather in a pantheic alliance and support the foremost bulwark against the armies of Abysia, for once Caelum falls, the Abysians will have gathered power far beyond whatever T'ien Ch'i has ever held.

To those who believe they could hold off the Abysians on their own, we warn of their collusion with the treacherous snakes of C'tis, who continually encroach on Caelian lands and doubtless prepare an unholy partition. Once Abysia and C'tis share and ravage Caelian homelands, they will be free to perpetrate new crimes on the nations of the midlands, like Ermor and Agartha. Do not be reassured by their claims of peaceful intentions - the only counterbalance to power is overwhelming power! To war against Abysia, and let the C'tissian snakes be warned to remain where they stay: in their snake pits!

The vile star spawn of R'lyeh - traitorous vermin of the depths - have crassly assaulted our glorious lands.

We cannot deny that we are much weakened by our struggles with the Empire of T'ien Ch'i.

But they arrive too late! Knife Bright Insight, true Lord of the Waters, has returned to us! He will scatter them like dust - all that they have striven for, they have sought in vain.

Long centuries have the nobles of Helheim called wise kings weak who would guard the Mouth of Hel. Restless and with greedy eyes they have left their post and let unfortunate products of necrotic incest escape the depths. Helheimers, as you could not keep safe the stewardship appointed to you, we shall do it for you. We have imprisoned you, Knife Bright Insight, in Helheim. Ugly pretender, springing malformed from a cesspool, you think yourself a Lord of Waters? As surely as the stars descend to ocean depths, we shall drive you back down the Mouth of Hel and send down after you a sword to spoil whatever dam gave you issue.

The noble and ancient nation of C'tis has only moved to absorb the remaining territory of Arcoscephale that prostrated itself before us after we defeated her armies in battle after battle in the swamps between our capitols. Even now we prepare to strike down their foolish pretender who has choosen now to defend her domain after all is lost.

We note that Caelum was quick to grab a few crumbs, like the brazen flying rats you are, after we broke Arcoscephale's heavy infantry leaving but a tissue to defend her lands.

Our armies have not ventured into the windswept, frozen wastelands you creatures, begat by the foulest vultures and lowliest crows, would call your domain. You even offered these lands to us once Abysia made it intentions clear and now you make wild accusations of collusion between our nation and Abysia.

We C'tissians find the depths of winter only allows one to think only in a stew of treachery and paranoia. With the rising sun and its warmth is one able to cogitate on grander things. We cannot comprehend the motivations of those who embrace Caelum's austere code of "honour",
