Correcting Your Errors

Sir Aodfionn,

First, anyone who gives even cursory consideration to His First Truth will see the answer to your feeble attempt at wit regarding the wielding of Druidic powers in His Service. That nature's powers can be directed toward hardship, oppression, and the advancement of sentient life is no surprise. Indeed, merely by existing this one Evil Druid has incited a cacophanous din of longwinded drivel that surely brings hardship to all who read the news.

Let us speak of your laughable accusations of Mhaldorian weakness. How many times have I exterminated your forests and smashed your defenders again and again? How many times have I detonated tanks in your village? For a while you even abandoned your commitment to vinewreathing totems, so harried were you by our raids. I understand that you may have missed these events, as you appear to have failed to notice the recently smoking and blasted ruins of your village's old library. You have scarcely been present for the constant fighting, the bloody conquests and liberations which have glutted the earth in gore these past few years. Spare us your ill-informed, secondhand commentary on battles you slept through. That there is more than one city whose loathing for Eleusis inspires them to take to the field of combat is not evidence of alliance, just as Eleusis' frequent presence defending Targossian territory - even when Targossas does not - evinces nothing more than a hatred for those present on the field.

Should you wish to call into question my veracity, I shall meet you in honorable combat: you and I both know how that will end.
Khaalith Antoninus Nithilar, Commandant of the Baelgrim

Penned by my hand on the 12th of Phaestian, in the year 942 AF.
