Sultan,

I have questions, in regards to your declaration that Shallam intends to
renew its hostilities against the Occultists, and more to the point,
Chaos itself. I thought that a public forum might in fact be the best
place, so that you may answer for all to see.

First of all; are you utterly certain that the entirety of Shallam holds
no sign of Chaos Worshippers whatsoever?

If you are not, might I suggest beginning your purge there. After all,
it would be rather embarrassing if you managed to destroy the
Occultists, and then discovered that your own city was the den of the
viper, as it were.

Secondly; If you intend to purge Chaos from the lands, I believe you
will need to eradicate the humans from the lands entirely. After all,
they are the most obvious stain of Chaos in the lands. If you do not
quite comprehend what I mean, I suggest you return to your studies for
some time, most specifically the history of this land, most specifically
the origin of Humanity.

I submit that if you are unwilling to commit genocide in order to
further your aims, then perhaps you are not as committed as you would
have us believe. I know, dear fellow, that it is a grievous act, and
that the Great Mother has blessed us all with the ability to follow
whichever path we choose. But you cannot deny that they are somewhat
tainted from birth, if one has a hatred of Chaos.

Third; Will you go to war with Lady Eris? Are you personally dedicated
enough to try and defeat one of the Gods themselves? I mean no
disrespect, in fact, the Lady Eris has great esteem from myself, as does
the lady whom she once was. I am just posing questions that I would see
answered. Perhaps ones you have not yet considered. I understand that
ruling such a shining city can sometimes strip one of one's wits. The
light is blinding, so I am told.

If you would do me the courtesy of answering these questions, preferably
in a civilised manner, I would be quite thankful.

I Remain,
Cetus Rhazine
Captain
