Citizens of Sanctuary
I have grown complacent. I have grown fond of my office, fond of the luxuries that come with being a councillor. I say now, no more! I have been seduced by the evils of politics. My campaign of strength was based on protection of all citizens, protection against the faceless horrors of the Underdark. I have recieved a letter, just this day, saying that men will be murdered because I will not yield. The faceless terrors of the Underdark and beyond attempt to strike at me through the murder of innocents. I will not yield to them, I will not yield them a single life.
We must all give up things we believe in on occasion. I will continue to stand at our walls, continue to fight against the faceless evils, but I will give up any chance of my enemies making this city a cesspool. I will not barter with them the lives of our citizenry, to get me to support their campaigns of terror and evil. And so, I resign my position as councillor. I resign my position, but I take up the fight I could not take up when I wore these silly dresses.
I will not yield to terrors, I will not sacrifice those who wish only peace for a supposed brighter future. I will not give in to lesser evils, to prevent a greater evil from flourishing.
Stand strong, citizens. Continue your undying support of the Watch and Spellguard organizations.
