[QUOTE="Serpenteye, post: 160762, member: 1492"] The God Emperor projects a part of his conciousness to the conference (while most of him is with the Lich Queen in the Astral Plane). He appears as an extremely handsome young man, in formal and dignified garb, glowing subtly with divine power. He listens to the speeches of the assembled while exchanging polite smalltalk with other delegates. ___Zelda Themelin wrote: We must put stop to this 'who is to blame' insanity. But, in the process we must not forget who our enemies are. That remains me, could someone, plese tell me, what was Melkor doing here. By Kord, he hardly has thought even word 'peace' as anything but some twisted, corrupted, entropic state of eternal nothingless. Btw, that "Diplomacy for Dummies" part was priceless... heheh. _________________ The God Emperor chuckles mirthlessly at the above statement and applauds Eldor after his speach. Then he turns to the barbarian (and the press): "There is much wisdom in your words, northman, but we must do more than that. It's not enough to eradicate the enemies of peace with loving acts of murder. It's not enough to heal the evil of the Red Scourge or the wounds of Oerth, we must go further than that. The Mists and the Red Death are drawn to suffering, strife and hatred. To win our freedom from a fate worse than death we must achieve peace, both external and internal, within our societies, our worlds and our hearts. All our conflicts must be resolved. I expect no peace from Melkor or Rajaat, all they desire is power and death. I expect little from Iuz or Hellmaster, their doctrine is struggle and war, though I think they , at least understand the danger we are all in at this time and might restrain themselves.
