Post subject:  [CORDOR] Salvation in these trying times.

Posted in multiple locations, particularly by the docks and low income housing areas. The leaflets are hand written and smell of ash.

Quote:
To the Citizens of the Commonwealth of Cordor,

To the Citizens of Cordor; the unemployed, the starving and the weak. To all those feeling downtrodden and defeated by these terrible times and lack of local leadership. The Church of Kossuth may grant you salvation yet.

The Firelord; in his infinite wisdom, would show mercy upon those citizens currently afflicted by the city's food and work shortages. It is by this decree with which the Church offers to take in any orphans which this destitute city may wish to give up into it's care. The meager budget spent providing for their care may then be used for more urgent issues, such as the investigation into local corruption.

This same offer is whole heartily extended to all those families who are overburdened to the point that they may no longer adequately provide for their offspring.

All those children given into the care of the Kossuthian Church will be provided transportation by ship to the mainland. Upon arriving all survivors of the oceanic voyage will begin a pilgrimage to the Holy Flaming Brazier in Bezantur; where, upon if surviving the journey, they will be initiated into the Church and fully placed into it's protection; under which the Firelord promises to provide warmth in both there bellies and hearts for the entirety of their lives. (Be assured also, that the education provided these young men and women will much surpass that which can currently be provided them by the Commonwealth.)

As a show of goodwill and The Lord of Flame's tremendous generosity in these trying times, the Church will provide a donation totaling a sum of 50 gold coins to each family handing a child into it's care. This offer starts immediately.

For further details you may seek out Phorus, Cleric of Kossuth. If literate and able to write you may also respond on these leaflets.

May you allow Kossuth to warm your hearts and bellies, as well as those of your deserving children.

Signed,
Phorus

A man in silver and copper armor seldom giving posters a second glance would stop as he reads the name of the city of a thousand temples. His head tilts slowly down as he reads the full proclamation and a small addendum is made by himself to one poster in the docks.

Fifty gold coins to send their children to Thay where regardless of faith they will be ruled by the Red Wizards.

*The posters would send a bald tattood woman in a fit, she'd take down two posters and bring one to the Academy and the second to minister Eli or leave it with the guard who would bar her entry to him.

She'd scribble one sentence in big poorly written letters on any other posters of the kind she finds*

Go buy slaves elsewhere you monster

A number of replies would be placed up OVER the notices.

Quote:
Mr. Phorus,

You are hereby summoned to attend meeting with myself at the earliest opportunity.

- Lt. Aurelius
Commonwealth Scouts - Alpha Division Vanguard


And at least one guard officer would be actively seeking Phorus out.

Andrew quietly goes around warning parents of the poster, offering to take their children to Guldorand with the orphanage children if they really wanted them outside of Cordor. And he'd bring the parents, too.

Andrew removes any posters he finds near the Academy.

Phorus notices a variety of responses to his postings, mostly of the negative sort. He laughs aloud at one calling him "a monster" and continues to chuckle at the idea until noticing that the majority of his postings have been covered up with another notice. He takes a long pull from his wineskin, wiping a dribble of wine off of his chin and onto the sleeve of his red trench-coat before pulling the notice down and reading it out loud:

"Mr. Phorus you are hereby summoned to attend meeting with myself at the earliest opportunity signed lieutenant Aurelius Commonwealth scouts yada yada yada."

A large smile comes into existence across his face as he folds the notice evenly in half and then once again and shoves it into a pocket of his trousers before taking another pull of his wineskin.

"Seems the city wishes to take me up on my offer, " he mumbles to himself as he heads towards the nearest city gate and then in the direction of his makeshift campsite. "Now if only I could remember where I keep my robes...."
