Speaker Ilsefi. You have written much and offered little.

Your foes wish for your destruction, that much has been made plain, and those with the Ambition to see it through have detonated bombs within Spires and volcanoes alike in their pursuit of your end.

You come to these boards and talk of Eleusis surviving its eradication. Are you content, then, to 'endure' while the Earthmother's village is burned? Will you shout your defiance, proclaiming that you cannot be silenced, while your kin are erased from existence?

Remind me, Speaker. In Nature, does the gazelle often lay down before the lion and offer up its throat?

Declarations and warnings will not save Eleusis from its enemies. Only actions will. Find the Conviction to take some.
