Call to Arms

Posted by Alaric on 01/15/18
Pirate nations of the far east have banded together and made known their intentions to launch attacks against us, demanding the concession of our lands and threatening ruin if we resist. The opposition of those who fly the Kraken's flag to the Faith of the Pantheon and the freedom of the people of Arvum is well known, and consequently their demands for submission have been wholly rejected. War is now upon us, and while we did not seek to have it we shall not be cowed by a challenge to our sovereign rights. The Great Houses of the Mourning Isles, the Northlands, and the Lyceum have called their banners to defend their lands, as is only proper. Yet they do not stand alone; an attack on any member House of the Compact is an attack upon us all.

I hereby call the banners of the entire Crown Compact of Arvum to muster and join in the defense of our people. I reiterate the call to the vassalages of Thrax, Redrain, and the Lyceum and call upon those of Grayson and Valardin to join their Arvian sisters and brothers and defeat these would-be invaders. With Mangata's blessing upon the strength of our united forces we will prevail against this unprovoked aggression and ensure peace and security in the eastern seas for ourselves and future generations to come.
