Today Luthius and Damascas, with some others declared themselves the rulers of Ashtan and demanded we remove the shrine from Ashtan within 5 days or all Shallamese will be killed. We replied through shouts that we need it for defense and that his complaints were ficticous. So to make an example he (Luthius) and Damascas killed two priests, myself and Amicus. Because of this I am announcing that I will die until I am level one before I will bow to this disgusting mob of murderers and liars who claim to be a government and who prey on the weak and then claim they are the victims. Never will I support the removal of this shrine because we are already not safe and its removal will only make us less so. Until the day that the Occultists quit their massacre of Church members the shrine will stand, even if I am murdered until I am level one. Each time I am murdered I will go out and seek new sacrifices to put upon the shrine to keep it healthy even as I bleed my last.
You may kill me but you will never bully me.

Penned by my hand on the 9th of Chronos, in the year 194 AF.
