Do you remember?
Do you remember Sheriff Dhogur? The one that declared marshal law in Lower? Who sent his men in to “pacify” you with the sharp end of a sword? It is said over a quarter of Lower’s men and women died to the Watch in this gratuitous orgy of violence. It is said the sewers ran red with the blood of your brothers and sisters.
Yet you may not even remember his name. This is because the people of Lower stood strong and united, and drove him back!
Do you remember Sheriff Azzam? The one that sent his men into your territory time and time again, killing your brothers for obscure infractions against a tyrannical law? The same sheriff who vetoed the law that would confirm your independence from Upper, and would have made it illegal for his men to kill here in the name of justice? The same sheriff who has cooperated with New Dunwarren at every turn, while they bleed you at every opportunity?
Yet who stands at the steps this dark? Not a single person watches for the tyrant’s men. Where is the unity that drove them back before? Do we need another genocidal massacre before we see our true enemy?
Put aside your differences, if only for the moment, for the storm of Tyrant Azzam is not coming, it is already here. It builds momentum everydark, and if we do not stop it, it will only end with the deaths of our brothers and sisters.
Who will stand against him and his men?
