Hazen appears surrounded by 10 gold dragons and his retinue. Fand Dyvyr, the druidess, smiles widely at the representative of the Emerald Enclave. Lord William Ronald of Keoland regards o' skotenos and the gith warmly. Gwilym Raonul smiles and King Glyfain and Queen Annolae. Moghyr the Old nods respectfully to Vaeregoth. Larissa Hunter of Dyvers looks troubled at the site of Mina.
"Pardon my lateness to this conference. I have been busy using my healing skills."
"Vaeregoth, Leader of the Swarm, I greet you. I would be honored if you would help us with the defense of Oerth against the fleet of evil. I have voiced support of your proposal, and I hope others will support it as well. I respect your might, your courage, and your honesty." Hazen bows politely to Vaeregoth in a gesture of respect. It is as close the formian version of the bow one leader gives another as is possible for a human.
"King Glyfain, Queen Annolae, I welcome you and your people to Oerth. May your people enjoy their new lands and their new found freedom. I also welcome teh gith - bold, mighty, and cunning. The Oerth Alliance will help you with your lands in any way that you require. I am greatly honored to welcome such valiant peoples into the Oerth Alliance."
"'o Skotenos, welcome! You are not only a valiant ally, but a wise leader. Kessel Gnomeworks, Lord Kalanyr, I greet you. Angelika, I welcome the Emerald Order to the alliance. I have been working on ways to reduce pollution and preserve Oerth, the home that we love."
"Lady Samantha of Hope Island, I am honored by your presence. May Alzem return to us soon. I thank you for showing the courage of your convictions."
"God Emperor of the Union and Kas, Slayer of Gods, I greet you. I will stand with those who will fight the Fleet of Evil."
"Acererak, I choose another option than what you propose. I respect your great knowledge but I see more than one possibility at present."
Hazen turns to Mina, and calmly regards her with his hazel eyes. There is an almost weary look on his face.
"Mina, I wish you peace. However, I am not going to abandon my faith nor do I think threats will work well with any of us."
"What the God Emperor of the Union choses to do in his lands is his concern. He has the sovereign right to make the alliances he choses -- even if I may disagree with some of his choices."
"I will not submit to your One God. Takhisis, or Tiamat as she is known here, is just another power seeking to dominate mortals by threats and force. I lived with Iuz as a neighbor for years. If he were still among us, he would tell you that I do not give in to threats."
"Indeed, I would say that the Alliance of Oerth stands for the rights of its members to make their choices. We are one, yet diverse. This is perhaps our greatest strength. While we may not always agree with one another, we respect each other."
"Your god, goddess last time I checked on the matter, is a power of Krynn. What has happened to the other deities of your world is unknown to me. "
"However, I believe there are a few things that those allied with you should see."
"Magic is fading in Krynn. Here is why."
An image is shown of a wizard trying to cast a spell, but failing. He tries again. Suddenly around the wizard is seen a horde of ghosts, drawing upon his magical energy.
"A good way to keep power out of the hands of any potential adversary. The dead are made into slaves of your master. I reject this slavery."
"Mina, even when you seek to help, you have caused unintentional harm."
An image is shown of an old woman, heading towards her bed chambers. Later an image is shown of her standing in a room with mirrors smashed. It seems she has been restored to youth. However, this is a lie. She seems like someone's rough image of a beautiful young woman. A mockery. A mannequin made out of human fresh. The woman weeps bitterly.
"This woman is someone I admire. She found faith, when others doubted her. She held to that faith until the day she died. She warned you of the darkness of your god and a destructive path. She choose to die with her faith intact, rather than to deny the truth that informed her life. She choose to die of old age rather than an illusion of youth. She chose to die rather than submit. I honor the choice of Goldmoon, last Hero of the Lance. She was a remarkable woman, your mother, and I send my sympathy for your loss."
"I urge you to consider why someone would not follow your god. Your deity is merely a voice in a chorus. Ao has greater claim to being called the One God, although it seems he may be Overgod of Realmspace or perhaps an aspect of an even higher power."
"I will oppose the Fleet of Evil, but there are more options than what you are presenting Mina. I do not back down easily. I will work with those opposing the Fleet, even if I disagree with them strongly."
