Our Interdict on Trade

Posted by Aureth on 06/01/21
In recognition of the infamous and horrific practices of slavery practiced by our enemies in the Dune Kingdoms, the Faith of the Pantheon - in part of an effort to crackdown on laxity here at home - issued an interdict on trade with Eurusi merchants. We did so with the fire of righteousness in our hearts, and yet it is with the same fires of righteousness that now, I open our hands to those among the Dune Kingdoms who would trade with us.

I offer no forgiveness to the unrepentant and no succor to those who enslave their fellows. Slavery is an offense to the gods and an ugly stain upon humanity.

Yet as we crusade against the Eurusi threat, we also open our arms to those among the Eurusi who seek the light. We offer comfort to those who seek refuge in our arms. We welcome those who would bend the knee to the Compact and embrace the truth of the Faith.

I have found that it is supremely difficult to offer aid and love from a closed fist.

Let us recognize that with growth and change come civilization and trade. Let us recognize that though there are evils and anathema that plague the peoples of the Dune Kingdoms, that each person of those lands is not our enemy merely because she is trapped within the bindings of those who do evil practices.

As the Seraph of Choice would remind us all, we seek not to destroy the Eurusi, but to liberate them to stand with us.
