Message: <blockquote data-quote="Fenris" data-source="post: 3670070" data-attributes="member: 2820">"I admit to freeing the Lord of the Mountain Queen Illinia. But it was done as a last resort. My people have been hard pressed by the Tallione Empire. The Elves of the Silver Forest have given us some shelter. But are hard pressed to hold the Tallione from their own borders. On top of this came raids from the orcs, against both New Dorinthia and Saleentra. The Elves cannot hold off both the orcs and Tallione. In order for my people to exist one of these threats had to be removed. In speaking with the council of Saleentra, it was suggested that if a way to remove the threat of the orcs were found, both nations might benefit. It was suggested to us by Councilman Varel that we awaken the Lord of the Mountain, not knowing fully it's nature, that it might cause enough destruction among the orcs to ensure our safety for some time to come. I would have you know it was not an easy decision, especially not understanding all that may happen. But if indeed the beast will sleep again, it's destruction will not last forever. And Nature herself offers destruction; fire, storm, earthquake, and tornado. Is the Lord of the Mountain not itself a part of Nature as well?Is so, what ever destruction occurs must still be a part of nature. I apologies for undoing your seals and enchantments. What was done was done for the salvation of my people. It was my decision and mine alone. Should you find need for punishment in spite of our tale and plea, I would ask that I then alone serve it. But before you mete out judgement too quickly, I would offer my services, and that of those who would follow me. If you can enslumber the beast again, and provide us a means to kill it, we shall not fail in such a task. The Rider has always revered nature and if we can atone for our actions by such a deed, we or at the least, I shall." replies Dartis with another low bow to the Queen.</blockquote>
