Where is the "Honor" in kidnapping?
     Where is the "Justice" in coercing a Master to do  things against his 
will?
     What of the grievance of a Lady deprived of her  freedom for many months?
 
   To stand on the side of Honor and Justice is to abhor the  actions of one 
who did not learn from the errors of the past...  I, for  one, stand with 
Master Airaklee Wolf in this war...
 
                                                          Respects,     Iain

People of Ansteorra, Outlands and other great  kingdoms, I put this
question to you:

Do you stand in support of  tyranny or would you strike a blow against it?
Will you follow a leader  simply because he wears a metal band on his head,
or will you demand that  the weak be protected and that justice be done? Do
you believe there is  chivalry and honor in aiding an oppressor or do you
feel as I do that only  by standing against such acts -- even though the
odds be against you -- can  you display true honor?

Know that the Baron of the West seeks to raise  an army for the purpose of
"crushing" a widow who seeks to defend herself  and what remains of her
clan. Her true crime, that for which her life is  forfeit, is only that she
is the widow of the last rival this baron had put  to death, a rival in
what should never have become more than a private  dispute. Don't be an
accomplice to such acts. Stand instead in a place of  honor, defend the
widow, demand a fair hearing of her grievances, demand  justice and a
righteous resolution of this conflict.

Kainin has made  it clear he has no interest in resolving this dispute by
any means other  than arms, and that he intends attack and slaughter, I
think it is the duty  of all fair minded people to gather to halt his
attack.

I hope to  see you all at the Gothic War in defense of this widow, calling
for a fair  hearing for her grievances and demanding justice in this long
standing  dispute. Remember, next time it could be YOU, YOUR CLAN or YOUR
HOUSE who  end on the wrong side of some powerful ruler. Wouldn't you hope
for fair  minded people to come to your defense?

I remain,

Captain One  Eye
