AMIA ARCHIVE • View topic - *posters placed up around south cordor, concerning john*

Wyjyn: Loving all of you (and above all Disco) since 11 Jan 2007.

The cordorian citizen named John has been kidnapped against his will and will be tortured until he is brainwashed into holding the views of those known as the triadic knights. John was a simple, respected man in the community who who wished nothing more than escape from tyranny and control.

The triadic knights have no right interefering in the lives of cordorian citizens, if you are in agreeance then demand the council intervene on behalf of the people of cordor against this tyrannical order of knights.

STAY IN KOHLINGEN KNIGHTS OR ELSE!!

(A note is placed up in response)

Any person found seeking to harm the Triadic Knights or the worshippers of the triad deities will be brought to Kohlingen and placed on trial. This applies to every location on the isle, including south cordor. This is your first and last warning.

Regards,

Morian, Priestess of Tyr.

Kohlingen's jurisdiction does not extend to the free city of Cordor. ~K

*Another note is placed next to that of Morian's*

"I will cause any member of the Triadic Knights enough harm to cause the children in the orphanage to weep without them even knowing why.

Small dogs bark the loudest. Your heretic self-proclaimed knights have barked long enough."

~ Darthion Illys

(A note is placed up in response to the responses, at the top of the page is a set of scales)

The jurisdiction of the triune deities covers the entire isle, if you wish to enforce another deity's will against us then come armed.

Darthion Illys is a coward who would not dare touch a single knight. He hides away at the mere site of the justice we bring to these lands. We do not take the threats of cowards seriously, though if you dare strike at our great organization you will be defeated with the utmost ease by even the lowliest of squires.

Regards,

Morian, Priestess of Tyr.

*Yaston reads the copies of the notes in Kohlingen and sighs*
Tortured and kidnapped?....it is impossible

Xaviera, in conversation with friends of hers in the south of Cordor, lets it be known that the man referred to as John was an attempted suicide who was taken to the Salandran Temple in the hope that he could be helped after he made public threats to kill innocent people as well on his next attempt.

She also makes it known that the most likely poster of the original notices is the lunatic Garagosian known as Ilahi Bir, who claims divinity and preaches a considerably more violent (and less intelligent) form of the neo-Sharran nihilism once espoused by the being perhaps known to some older Cordorians as Chivalric Misery.

*Darthion is informed of the content of the last note posted by Morian, and slowly shakes his head in disbelief. Shortly thereafter, another note is seen next to Morian's latest.*

"Do you honestly think anyone will believe what you just wrote? I am not commonly referred to as "Knightslayer" for nothing.

~ Darthion Illys"

Samantha catches sight of the notice and just sighs.

*a reply is written on the notice*

A triadic knight attacked me and my companions, because one of my companions summoned an undead. I was just standing beside them, and he attacked all of us! Brutes!

Warrick can be seen reading these notices with a frustrated facepalm in reaction.

~This is why Cordor needs a foreign service to aid in expediently settling such matters without problem. ~

*Calin Katar posts a message next to replies made about knights going on Trial*

"I speak for myself personally here, but if any Triadic Knight attempts to enforce their laws within' a city that has conflicting laws, and attempts to hold judgement under a forgien policy, I will treat it as kidnapping and assualt. As such, I will offer my aid to the Cordor Guard in these situations, and take hostile actions against the Triadic Knights to keep the accused within' the boundries of Cordor's law if need be.

This also applies to anyone who attempts to do these things naturally.

No man, woman or child is above the law. Least of all those who claim to respect and enforce it.

-Calin Katar, Follower of the Red Knight"

*Calin's lack of titles show's he considers this a personal matter.*

The Shadows shimmer and seperate, allowing the dusky crimson creature to emerge and take form just outside the lamp light. It regards the notice that is posted upon the wall and rubs it's silk clothed hand across it, smirking in it's mask.

" This looks like it could be a prosperous oppertunity for those capable of taking of advantage of such."

It takes out a pen and ink and scrawls over Corperal Piers post in crimson ink:

"The altruistic heathens spouting righteousness whilst forcing thier will upon all without considering thier right to free choice. Is this what we the people want for our city?"

It then slides a perfect blood red rose underneath the parchment and slips back into the shadows from which it emerged.

Apparently attempting to quel the inter-factional dispute in Cordor, the General of the Cordorian Army himself makes a notice.

Attention Adventurers,

On behalf of the Cordorian Commonwealth and the Commonwealth Guard, I hereby warn that any attempts from any party to enforce their will be treated as a criminal act or an act of terrorism based upon situational factors. This applies irrespective of Race, Social Class, Religion, Affiliation, or Citizenship.

The City of Cordor will not act as a battlefield for the fueds of Adventurers, and individuals demonstrating these activities will be forcefully removed from the City of Cordor through any means necessary.

Yours Cordially;
Sir Mark Dorne,
General, Cordorian Guard

Riala reads the note with the help of a few notes and translation books, eventually figuring out the gist of it after a few attempts. She then smiles a bit. "Well, at least they did SOMETHING right."

Words begin appearing painted in red upon the walls in various areas of the city Cordor...More so in the South section, but also in every other section as well, just not as often. Here are some of the words that can be found:

Damn the Triadic Tyrants!

Rise up for Freedom citizens!

Exile the Heretics back to the north!

Sheyva, upon seeing one of the graffiti in Cordor:

"Wow. Subtle."

*Warrick mutters at the graffiti and begins cleaning it up as best he can on his own, saying quite simply*

"The community has message boards, you needn't bloody well use the walls of the People of our Commonwealth." he can be heard muttering unhappily.

*A certain ebon-haired Corporal is seen with a squad of gents with mops, brushes, and buckets, with a very large scowl across her stiff jaw, as they made patrol about the city starting north and working their Way from east to West.*

"Keep this nonsense out of the people's City."

"Let it be noted that not only Triadic Knights, but Banites, Cyricists and every other group of religious fanatics enforces and spreads their laws, conflicting with local city laws, in Amia fairly openly. As long as there is fanatics, there is conflict. Peace comes from within, not above."

Is a short poster posted, and nosignature adorns this one.

*several pages are adding by different folks*

-Drahj upon reading the notices exclaims
"I do say now, OH MY GODS, Im dying! DYING! "
*he then signs his name to every poster agreeing with conflicting opinions*

------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

-Karvo

He waits for somebody to read the sign then in simple sagely wisdom he comments...

"Wuz we no jus get longs? We eats sauZages! en' den we huggums! I sell Chiggum eggz I do! YAY! Im da Karvo and I hungry!"
*He ambles off forgetting what just happened*

-------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

-Carl Slifer

*pens in flourishing penmanship*
"I say, dear citizens of most lofty high honores cordor, knights of kohlingen, and other powers that may be. I humbly suggest taking this up with a mediator or agreeing to an exchange of handshakes..

If you insist on battle, allows me nuetrality to record an epic sphere of events..

Also do not interefere with my love Ama'Lisa"

Gradually the red paint graffiti disappears from South Cordor, but not at an alarming rate or with any particular haste. A group of very happy people who chat with the locals of South Cordor frequently, who pass out freshly grown flowers and who sing polyphonic harmonies while scrubbing the paint off the walls are responsible.

Warrick'd probably take the time to spend time with the people who're also helping with the removal of the Graffiti.

Meresket upon hearing of this Darthion Character exclaims.

"Now thats a fellow i wouldn't mind sticking me with his sword"

As would Xaviera.

Just below this note, a recent addition of what seems to be two heads is seen hanging by a rope.

On closer inspection, those that would recognize them, would easily identify them as the faces of the two Triadic Knights, Yaston Sylgerand and Artemist Thrailo.

The heads are mostly intact, with the exception of slightly dried blood and a few bruises. The bodies of both Knights are, however, nowhere in sight.

Next to the heads, another new note is found, stating:

"No one challenges the Black Hand without repercussions. Speaking of blasphemy, threatening the righteous servants of the Lord of Darkness and dishonouring His name are crimes worthy the punishment of death.

The Triadic Knights will be hunted down, until their essences cease to exist, should their arrogant claims and ignorant remarks persist.

The Church of Bane is a peacekeeper, yet the Triadic Knights have initiated conflict and chaos. Something which the Church of Bane does -not- tolerate.

Praised be the almighty Black Hand!"

signed - Darthion Illys, Dread Inquisitor of Bane.

'Alexander d'Angoulême sees Darthion Illys notes left and speaks aloud to himself'
"This man intends to do battle with the Triadic Knights? Most excellent I must contact him at once. The Brothers of blood are anxious for battle"

Thanks to be bodies being found and ressurections performed, the heads are already gone, hardly two or three hours hung up.

"Your disgusting justice and twisted call for retribution holds little sway in the Cordorian Guards. I look forward to your next escapades, and the the hard clang of the iron doors."

Samantha hears the rumors about Yaston and Artemist's heads hanging there and she sighs heavily.. Another thing to deal with.

Within the City of Cordor, the Guard can be seen bustling about more thoroughly than usual, frequent sweeps occuring even more regularly than they had as of late.

Word on the street is that the local military didn't take too kindly to corpse-heads being posted and advertised into their city.

Cordor South also becomes home to more frequent, Law Knight led patrols - most adventurers in their path often reporting severe injuries for getting in the way.

A man using the Shadows to travel through the south of Cordor quickly realises he has no need, taking a short glance around before coming out from said shadows.

"Someone must of pulled another stupid stunt for these lot to be out and about all over the South... yet again."

He let out a sigh before carrying on with whatever it was he were doing, or about to do.

Warrick gives the Law Knights a friendly salute and greeting if they'd have it. If he sees one particular Law Knight amongst them especially so and also in addition, would be offering if they'd like a set of eyes or hands if he's about.

Riala eyes the cadre of new guards, not having seen the heads before as she was at home when it happened. "Wonder what dumass broke the law this time?" As one looked toward her, she gave a friendly wave, just going about her business and abiding by the law as usual.

(A new set of posters placed about cordor south, each with a set of scales at the top center of the page)

In response to the savage barbarity of the Church of Bane and their Loviator allies, the Triadic Knights declare war on all followers of Bane and Loviator. All worshippers are to present themself to the gates of Kohlingen to be processed and judged by the Triune deities or risk being struck down by our blades.

Further, all of pure heart are hereby requested to chase down and kill the menace Darthion Illys. Beware his cheap battle tricks, without them he is nothing but with them he can put up a mild threat. He has no allies, so there is no need to fear numbers when battling him.

Regards,

Morian, Priestess of Tyr.

The new notices are all tacked up with an additional note:

Until it is declared by Sir Yaston Sylgerand of the Triadic Knights, I daresay no Triadic Knight should follow the orders of this 'Priestess of Tyr' or dare I say anyone.

Yes, Evil must be opposed but to call for a full out war now is needless. The Triadic Knights and other forces of Good heart have been working to stop them already.

Further more, it is asked that this war be kept OFF the Streets of Cordor especially the South who has suffered innumerous times at the hands of adventurer conflicts as is. It is highly recommended, miss Morian that you present your case before Sir Sylgerand, or perhaps Justicar Marinsbane before you attempt to invoke needless conflicts which could as easily erupt on Cordor's streets.

Christophan Warrick of House Kenlyl,
Citizen of the Commonwealth of Cordor
Southern District

(A response is placed up)

Sir Yaston Sylgerand of the Triadic Knights is already well aware and has directly ordered me to place these notices up in response to the cowardly attacks on the Triadic Knights. Let the Shrine of Screams serve as an example for those that would spread darkness to Amia.

Your advice concerning Cordor being kept out of the conflict is noted and will be taken seriously. That said, if evil hides in Cordor and Cordor's officials will not cooperate in their persecution, we will do what we must to deliver justice.

Regards,

Morian, Priestess of Tyr

*copies of both notices are taken at once, with a very ticked off Clerk, Bursar, former Defender and generally do-gooding sort, pausing to add where he can find the notices*

Then why is HE not declaring it as ranking officer of the Triadic Knights?

Christophan Warrick of House Kenlyl

He then asks of anyone who would be willing in the South if they see the poster of these again, to try to take note of what they look like and let him know as soon as possible.

(A response is posted)

Sir Yaston considers the church of Bane and Loviater too far beneath him to travel to Cordor. Hence, he has ordered myself to post for him. If you are not a member of the Triadic Knights, please do not question the actions of our organization.

Some facts for your consideration:

1. The Church of Bane has caused many issues for many Cordorians.
2. The Church of Loviatar revels in causing pain and suffering to Cordorians.
3. Both of these churches have attacked the Triadic Knights within Cordor.

If any wish to discuss the validity of these claims, they may meet with the Triadic Knights in Kohlingen. Presenting themself to our holy judgement.[/list]

*The following note gets tacked up, but Kats is never seen, even by the Elites' all seeing eye. It would hint that she had one of her non-exiled soldiers pin it up.*
Present ourselves? As though we are yours, or your godlings', to command? If there is to be war, let Yaston speak it, or none at all. I will not accept his whelps' words for it any more than anyone can speak for myself in the Banites.

Tyranny is at full blossom in Cordor now, and I could not be more pleased to see the guards act in His will. So let your bitch-gods whine and curse. The Banites bow to none, least of all to yourselves!
In His Name!
Katsumi Aizawa
Imperceptor of Bane in Amia

On seeing this notice, Warrick heads to Kohlingen to do just that.

Wyjyn: Loving all of you (and above all Disco) since 11 Jan 2007.

*In a very crimson red, a response is written on the last note by Morian*

STAY IN KOHLINGEN FOOLS!

*attached to it is a damanged, bloody helm of red and yellow colours*

Warrick removes the helm and properly disposes of it, taking note if possible of who's it might have been. (his trip to Kohjlingen having been mildly delayed)

Wyjyn: Loving all of you (and above all Disco) since 11 Jan 2007.

*The helm would have been filled with blood, human blood. No one would have seen who placed it up*

*a poster has appeared under Morian's post with the official Triadic Knight seals*

I don't know who are you Morian, but I ask you to not make posts in my name or in the name of the Triadic Knights.

Sir Yaston Sylgerand

As Morian continues to speak on behalf of the Triadic Knights, with no public response from the Triadic Knights themselves, they grow anxious and embittered, in particular with the notion that the god-fearing citizens may suffer the Triadic Knights "doing what they must" to deliver justice. Breaking into peoples' homes to find criminals. Bullying them, demanding information.

"Why can't the Triadic Knights work with our officials instead of against them?"

"Because most of those damned knights are either adventurers, nobles or at least well-off. They don't give a damn about the common man of the Commonwealth. Otherwise, they'd be far more sympathetic to our concerns."

"Let them try to take me down for their brand of justice. I've placed my faith in the constitution and the right of the Commonwealth. The Ministry of Law and our Guard will protect us from them."

// *quietly pokes, noting Yaston just did post officially*

A man in basic looking Armor under the safety of a Greater Sanctuary spell comes across the notices, copying a few that caught his eye, before continuing on his way to his destination.

But then coming across a certain other, he just places his copies away into the nearest trash barrel.

Wyjyn: Loving all of you (and above all Disco) since 11 Jan 2007.

*A figure in Red and Black armour goes about placing up posters in response, the posters he places up are slightly singed with heat*

Now you have seen what the Holy Knights are really about, stand up for yourselves by joining the Brothers of Blood, followers of Garagos. You will never be safe expecting peace, so expect war instead and become great at it.

I.lahi Bir, the Divine One.
