The Future

Posted by Victus on 03/11/19
On this day, 9/20/1010 AR, the creation of new thralls is prohibited across all Mourning Isles domains. The application of indentured servitude will not be used against any soul who commits an offense against Islander people.

House Thrax hereby pledges an oath, in service of its people, the Compact and the Gods, that all Houses under its purview will receive our full support in these times of transition. Our coffers and every able body in service to House Thrax will assist loyal Houses in adopting a new work force, constructing new infrastructure, and assuring stability to their domain.

As the Assembly has proven, we are not standing in this alone. Every corner of Arvum, our entire world is standing behind us. We are united against the coming storm as one Compact. We will emerge on the correct side of history and we will forever be stronger for it. On my honor, this I swear.

To those who will choose not to follow us, you will not be denied your right to fight and die for your beliefs. History has made example time and time again of those who challenged House Thrax's authority. The present shall be no different.

This marks the beginning of our arduous journey and our commitment to seeing at least FIFTEEN PERCENT of all thralls released EVERY YEAR. Until no chain remains.

Tears in our wake, never at our wake.
