A Reminder to All was created by krishickey
I am not the first to bring to your attention the legion of vicious zealots sitting out on our figurative doorstep. Nor am I the first to state an obvious, uncomfortable truth: These are people who stand against us, not monsters, not undead, not the mindless, but thinking and feeling people. So let us soak in this truth.
These are our fellow men committing horrible atrocities. The High Pontiff request we champion diplomacy above all else, spare needless bloodshed where we can help it, and sway those who had been swayed back onto a righteous path. How are we to accomplish this? First, we must truly understand those who side with the Blazing Sun. We are a nation at war and I have seen the devastation left in its wake firsthand. Sure, it kills, it burns, it pillages, it ruins. But worse than all that… It leaves those left standing starved - physically, emotionally, spiritually. A hungry man is a desperate man, and a desperate man will turn a blind eye to a stranger’s suffering should it fill his belly.
But a desperate man is not always an irredeemable one. Remember that.

Thank you Adalia,
Your words have truth and virtue.
As a reminder, the true Valosian church has mission houses in Alomiolande in Pendarvin, Stortmouth in Dregamire, Niedrillion in Kaladonia, and Mordavia in Ostcliff. Please, I beg all Travancians, if there are those who are indeed starved and homeless send them to these places of refuge. There they will find nourishment and support during this crisis. These places are not so much places of conversion or proselytizing, but simply places of feeding the hungry and sheltering those without home.

Have you been on the receiving end of these kinds of people? If you have you would not simply treat them like you would a member of Travance. You would want to treat them like they have treated you and those like you.
My flock and I will treat those who are not the leadership and do not strike first with respect and have as much of a discussion as long as they wish. It will be on the true nature of the Dark. We will then leave the decision if they wish to live or die to them.
The leaders do not get that choice. They have made their choice when they decided to seek out those who are even interested in understanding the Dark and killing them.
My people and flock have been killed without a discussion. Why should I grant their leaders any better?

(The script is angry, hasty without decorum)
I hope you have read what my initial posting said. These "people" are Monsters, and they will be treated as such. If you want to assist someone, assist their victims, oh you can't, they don't leave survivors. I hope you see the leniency many of the dark already have given these disgraceful wretches. The ignorant, the young ones who are misguided by these followers of "light" will be given a chance to lay down their weapons. But their leadership, their older members they will die, and their blood will be the paint that writes the lessons for these scum.

A time may come when my shield will crack at the hands of a Travancian for want of mercy but I will hold it aloft nonetheless.
