LAY PROSTRATE BEFORE THE WILL OF TZOVENADTHE FORMER corrupt and ineffectual government of Pontesi has been destroyed, so declares the Storm of the Mountains. GONE is the Commonwealth and upon its ashes we shall build a new and glorious Pontesi and conquer all the Majatra!
IN THIS DECLARATION we speak our case before the whole of Terra, such that they may know the plight of their future slave-masters.
NO LONGER SHALL PONTESI BE SUBJUGATED No longer shall we live beneath the boot of foreign oppression. No longer shall we draw our history to the false blessings of Hosianism, the robbery and usury of the Yeudish, the loathsome self-denial of the Ahmadist. We declare a return to Pntek Paganism, we declare our lands for only Tzovenad, Lord of Storms and Sea!
We declare the formation of
THE CURSED MOUNTAINS OF PONTESIIN RECOGNIZING OUR GEOGRAPHY
IN CELEBRATING OUR TOPOGRAPHY
IN CREATING OUR BIOGRAPHY
NO LONGER shall we be the The Pontesian Dynastic Commonwealth, FOR WHEN has Pontesi ever found commonality within its boarders that did not come at the tip of a sword, the barrel of a gun or the scrawled ink of Imperial parchment? FOR WHEN has Pontesi flourished and been allowed to keep her wealth? The riches of her mountains, fertile with copper and silver ore, have long been mined by Luthori and Selucian invaders.
WE CURSE THE FALSE PROPHET XARFAXIS, WE SPIT UPON HIS LEGACY
WE DECLARE A TRUE CRIMSON CRUSADE IN THIS ERA, A MAJATRA AWASH WITH THE BLOOD OF PUPPETS WHO SEEM CONTENT TO SERVE FALSE GODSWE DECLARE THE CURSED MOUNTAINS OF PONTESI to be formed on this day. May the crags of our land pierce the vile Gods above and tear asunder the heavens in which they dwell!
IN THIS ERA WE PLEDGE THE FOLLOWING-
-The Enslavement of Selucia for the crimes of Xarfaxis
-The Extermination of the Rajutti people, whose immigration to Pontesi in 4100 was but the most recent example of the meddling actions of the story-teller God Lord Akninner the Lie-Bringer. The Rajutti fail to integrate into Pontesi society and their false worship of Bovine Gods both confuse and offend us.
-The Expansion of the Pontesi economy following the rejection and destruction of Hosianism - the First Blight upon Pontesi by foreign invaders - and the return to hedonism. We are nothing, Terra is but a game. We shall take this fact to its logical end - we shall enjoy. We shall give in to our carnal needs.
SO IT SHALL BE, SO IT SHALL NEVER BE
AS IT WAS, AND NEVER SHALL BE
WE WORSHIP THEE, LORD OF STORM AND SEA
SAME AS IT EVER WAS
