To Veshuib ibn-Dyaim

[zerotje]

Dear Veshuib ibn-Dyaim,

We Bashmu-kar of the Creep wish to hire you to push for the legalisation of Bashmu worship.

We do not desire acceptance, only for it to be allowed in law. Tolerated. Like it's always been!

You shouldn't admit to having us as clients.
For we, by many violent means, demand the legalisation!

But... well, if you can find some wormy way in the Pyramid to make them submit.
Well you would become very rich!

Sadiki Khepri,

Gracious what a kind offer from a scandalous little morsel. I am not a politician. I hold no sway over the Legates nor influence in the Pyramid. Legate-Priest Marecellus' crusade against Diakos has proven he is prepared to unleash countless horrors upon the realm in exchange for victory over your Faithful. So long as He or Diakos lives and mobilizes for the Empire he will not cease. And despite his status in the Gold League, Legate Qari holds a shockingly conservative stance aligned of much of Baz'eel. Neither current Legate of which likely to accept any proposal to change such, be it by Violence or Political push.

That being said B'aara is not without Mercy.

For sufficient charity an interview can be had in which you or your Speaker or any of the House are able to speak directly with the populace. This absent of bellows and sending beaten and brutalized men to slur and stumble over the bellows while still concussed and wounded and pride still stung. Hardly an efficient means of communication.

If this agreeable and your offer of riches sincere we may make arrangements to speak at Ka'esh's Caravansary in the next few days.

V.

Hello Veshuib,

We are not on Diakos' side despite our shared faith.

But it doesn't matter if the populace thinks so.
Fear of Bashmu is good, it isn't just love that makes men bow to a Deity.
They are right to hate and fear Bashmu.

Please provide details about how this speech to the populace takes form in your mind?

It would depend upon how much charity you are seeking to part with. My readers grow by the day in Baz'eel and Ephia alike and the scintillating serpent always draws the eye of the masses. A meager sum would net meager reward but an extravagant sum could see a multiple-day circulation of various topics covered in a lengthy interview with the representative of your choosing. Many of Ephia have questions for your faithful, as do I, and no doubt you'd wish to represent your side absent of the bureaucratic weight of the other Temples of the Wheel.

V,

That is a good start. But I want public doomspeaking and public speeches in the Above-Well.
Your ambitions sound limited, perhaps you should spend the day praying for divine inspiration from our good Winged Serpent the Wyrm.

Go find someone suitable if you don't want to do it yourself.

If you think you can take up this challenge the sums will be extravagant.
