Message: <blockquote data-quote="William Ronald" data-source="post: 157151" data-attributes="member: 426">Gwilym Raonul addresses the press."Archcleric Hazen, President of the Kevellond League and the Oerth Alliance, is not here right now.  He is currently working on a project to try to battle the Touch of the Dark Powers which rule what we call the Domain of Dread.  Powers so horrid that the Dark Lords of that plain are there mere prisoners.""It is to be hoped that he returns soon.  Before he left, he issued this statement.""I am going in quest of a knowledge that is dreadful, but may help save Oerth, Toril, Krynn, Mystara and Athas.  If I am successful, I will return and hopefully have a way to help protect the worlds.  If not, it has been a privilege to serve as President of the Kevellond League and the Oerth Alliance.  I have been honored to meet many brave and honorable people from Toril, from Athas, from Krynn, and Mystara.""Despite the darkness of these times, we have to power to combat the evil around us.  We must look past the differences of flesh and borders.  We must forgive each other our wrongs.  We can make a better future for all of our worlds, if we stand as one.""In my heart, I believe Oerth will be restored to its former beauty.  I urge all powers of Oerth to join this endeavour.  The help of off world powers who wish goodwill to Oerth are welcome.  All the worlds can be raised into places that of greater beauty, civilization, and goodness.  We must all build a future worthy of our posterity, so that our heirs shall say of us:  "In their time, they did the best for the worlds.  We are honored by their compassion, their courage, and their wisdom.  Let us build a future that honors their efforts and their sacrifices.""In my absence, Gwilym Raonul will represent the Kevellond League.   The President of the Baklunish-Esmerin Confederation is the vice president of the alliance.   Perhaps the peace conference will bear fruit, or at least reveal the truth of everyone's intentions.""Also, the Kevellond League and the Baklunish Confederation with their allies are beginning work on restoring Oerth immediately.  (Edena, I presume that fighting in this interlude is limited to individuals.  Maybe I can try to do some good for Oerth.)We encourage all nations and powers on Oerth to aid this effort.""We also will prepare our defenses against any attack."Gwilym pauses, and there is a worried look on his face."I hope that President Hazen will return soon.  He is a man of great courage, ready to sacrifice all not just for Oerth, but for all worlds threatened by the Dark Powers.  I ask that all hearing this press conference will pray for him.""I have just learned that fighting has broken out in the World Forum on Toril.  The Oerth Alliance urges all nations of Toril and their representatives to stop fighting.  Hatred feeds the threat to us all.  If you must fight, fight against the hate that threatens entire worlds.""I am prepared to answer questions from the press on Oerth and Toril.  I will shortly leave for the peace conference in Ishtarland.  I hope that  President Hazen will join me there."(OOC:   If Hazen does not survive, I have already asked Edena about a new PC.  Gwilym Raonul will be the PC if Hazen does not return.)</blockquote>
