Funny, this is not the first time those of Mhaldor have been accused of having a sudden concern for something that heathens deem outside of our area of expertise. Up to now, however, it has mostly been Eleusis and towards me.
Allow me to clarify this "misconception" for you and all though. Mhaldor cares not what you look like, who you are, your soul or lack thereof, or what others think you represent, Mhaldor cares about your potential and how willing you are to strive for strength and look death gladly in the face when the time comes.
Many have called me an abomination, and yet I have a soul that worships the one true God Emperor of all dominion. Were I not to have a soul, I would still have a mind capable of doing the same, and of moving me forward to strength, and the body to carry out His Will. And, through which, He empowers me.
Just as those of Dun Fortress are capable of and may likewise be empowered by Him.
You call the goblinoids little more than frontline troops, yet what does an army need to win a war? Frontline troops have value and the strongest progress through the ranks, as is only natural.
To your third point, we do not offer false sanctimony, we offer what we have always offered to those who are willing. The ability to gain strength through hardship, as the first truth state: What is called Evil is simply the drive for advancement, for greatness. We seek, through discipline and pain, to spur the advancement of nothing less than sentient life.
We have never sought anything less, and with the amount of death and fighting those of Dun Fortress have already faced, they are the perfect candidates to explore where Mhaldor and thereby their increased strength will take them.
Perhaps one day they will teach those of you in Targossas the meaning of strength and facing hardship.
