This is truly ridiculous. For the past six months, promises of glory and prosperity blinded the people to all of the able hands being whisked off to war and the steadily depleting storehouse. Now, after such a brief campaign, the kingdom of Abysia is right up against us with a huge army. Surely there will be much suffering and many deaths, all so that a god we've been told exists can do a job any of the other false gods could do just as well. And yet, the people still cheer and herald victory long before it comes. Soon the strife will be too great to ignore, and too late to resist, and yet nothing can be done because nobody wants to do anything. My friends and family are blinded by the bards' tales told of ascention wars past. There is a reason commoners such as us are never mentioned in those tales, and the reason shall be clear to everyone all too soon.

...Yeah, I was bored.
