Hail, Lumarch.

Though you have evoked the name of my Master in your last missives, there is no need to be disingenuous concerning the work of Lord Babel, His primer, or His priesthood. The general populace of this world is well-aware of what Oblivion entails, the impending ruin of these lands, and the charge that the Logos gave to Lord Babel to oversee these borders until the final end. There is no distracting from such, and while these claims may score you political points at home amongst your congregations, they only serve to discredit you abroad.

You speak of truth as if you read it out of a book. Whichever supernatural entity has control of your malleable soul from one moment to the next matters little to me, but I would caution you against condemning perception-based reality when you yourself have lived your life accordingly so. Truth is relatively simple. You can find it even within your libraries, if youre so inclined to take your truths from there. Simply read how many Gods of the Light have died in Their sacred charge, or how Lord Ayar was ultimately unable to stop the spread of Entropy and Discord within this world, or the fall of the last civilisation that championed the forces of Good in these lands.

You speak of freedom as if you would know anything about that from your prison in the East. As it is written, such equality is impossible, and such a quest is pointless, for all beings share the same inevitable fate, and their position in this present world is ultimately as inconsequential as anything else. When it pleases us to do so, it is sometimes our way to denounce those who claim their own laws and morals and ethics to be absolute, for we know that this is false. If we choose to act in this capacity, it is only from compassion that we do so. Why should our fellow creatures be bound by the feeble chains of an arbitrary morality, like yourself, when there is no need?

Which truth is the better alternative is, perhaps, the more logical argument. The end of this world, or a new wave of fanaticism and repression across the realms from the children of Dunamis? Unlimited potential in an existence after Chaos consumes us, or an endless array of shackles, burning pyres, and persecution? Immortal power that rivals the Aldar in scope, or mock confessions and inquisitions of those that do not submit to the narrow-minded worldview of the Light? I am quite certain as to what I prefer.

Let us ride the waves of Entropy and Discord and breed destruction in their wake until the time of our final ascension.
