[QUOTE="Forrester, post: 77592, member: 1279"] [b]Will repost when the Turn 3 starts. But I might as well put it out there.[/b] [SIZE=4][COLOR=firebrick]Acererak.[/COLOR][/SIZE] Your speeches do not impress me, Skull. Yes, I interfere because they call for help. Yes, I interfere because they need me. And yes, I decide who lives, and who dies. You ask how we are not different. The answer is obvious. When I killed the elves, their souls were able to ascend to their heaven. When you kill your victims, their souls are eaten – you not only rip away this life, you rip away the next. But I will not defend my actions to the likes of you. Consider me a hypocrite if you wish – it matters not. If your worldview is so twisted that you cannot see your evil for what it is, then you are beyond help. You made a request, and now I make one of you. I ask that you and your allies immediately cease hostilities against the city of Irongate. Withdraw your forces to a safe distance, and wait. The inhabitants of Irongate can then be evacuated over the next month through teleportation circle or through gate – my own mages will teleport in to assist in the evacuation. And the city will then be yours. You will get what you want. And you have consumed enough souls already. Finally, you made an ultimatum, and now I give one to you. If you do not do this, I WILL DESTROY YOU. Do not doubt me. MY FORCES soiled and despoiled Evereska so that no thing could grow there for decades. MY FORCES sunk EVERMEET, great island of the elves, into the sea. My forces took on the combined might of High Elven Magic and the Illithid, and won. And you are correct – we showed no mercy. We killed all – men, women, children. Their blood dripped from our lips as we shouted to the heavens news of our victories. When another Great War came again, years later, we did the same – oh, our dietary habits changed, but there was the same carnage. Millions died. But we won again. There was never any doubt. If you do not withdraw from Irongate for 30 days – one simple month – you, Undead creature, will die. You will be tracked to the ends of the earth – and there is no graveyard, no crypt, no dark and lonely place where you will be able to hide from me. You will be tracked to the ends of Oerth, and into the depths of Oerth. My army is strong, and growing stronger every day. A million more soldiers from Toril will be arriving within the week. 10th level magic is almost within my grasp. Nuclear weapons are but a heartbeat away. No fortifications will help you, no tricks will help you, and lord knows, no allies will help you, because it would mean their certain doom. Simply put, If you do not withdraw, I will spend every day, hour, minute, second, breath, and thought working towards your ultimate destruction, Undead. Ask Anabstercorian whether I make idle threats. Ask him whether he would expect your death within the next six months. Ask the Shade the same. And talk no more of our relative good and evil. Good? Bad? I’m the guy with the gun. Lord Forrester Destroyer of Evermeet Peacemaker [/QUOTE]
