For those of you who are interested, I spoke with Piphron in person. I recommend that anyone else wishing to do the same to exercise caution. While he has significantly calmed since I first approached him, he is easily provoked, especially in regarding to the recent murder of his brother. With him and all the Arehtei, I recommend showing them due respect and consideration during this difficult time.

[Which shouldn’t need to be said but he finds it doesn’t hurt to remind people.]

Furthermore, he has no interest in being protected. Instead, his request is that we prevent calamity from happening again to this world. Many of us have been striving for that already, but now the situation has escalated. As much as I personally prefer peaceful solutions, I believe the time for passive investigation is over. An aggressive move has been made against the Arehtei, and subsequently, against the well being of the world as a whole. Such can not be tolerated in the least.

If the suggestion has not already been put forward, I implore all OtherWorlders willing to fight for this world to band together and make our move against those who harmed Thras. As Rajaad has already said, this is a call to arms. If we are to act, the time is now. The more time that passes puts the Arehtei at greater risk.

Please think on this carefully.

On the 22nd of this month I plan to hold a special ritual for Thras at the temple ruins. All are welcome to attend, OtherWorlder and Native alike. It will be an effort to supply bravery for the Arehtei in hopes that he may be reborn sooner rather than later. Also, it will be an opportunity to organize and plan our offense against those who betrayed Thras.

I urge everyone, who are willing and able, to attend.
