No, what you have foreseen your own destruction, and for that you have turned from your position as the "Guardian" of the Dead into just what everyone else is - an abuser of the dead. A true Guardian would not use the dead for his own dark ends, while claiming to have "good" intentions. No, a true Guardian would let the dead rest. That is quite exactly the opposite you have done. You are not protecting those "poor souls". You are bringing them to this world to fight in wars which do not concern them.
Just like everyone else. You are no better than us, no better than the Abysians. Indeed, you are worse. We never claimed to be good nor evil. Nor did the Abysians. You are the warmongerer. You brought war to the East, and now it is coming to the West. Remember that it was you who started all this, and it is you who is paying the consequences of his very own rash actions. Not us. We are simply reacting. Responding to the gravest form of hostility.
Victory needs no explanation, defeat allows none.
Note that our God is also called the God of Invincible Power... How could anything be the undoing of a being which is invincible? And our God surely does not hate brains. That is, again, your own strange form of prejudice. Brains, and the usage of such, represent the destruction of retarded creatures such as yourself, whom start wars for the sake of ideals which they are prepared to throw out of the window at the first time they start seeming to slow down one's progress. All you have shown us is that once your lands have been conquered, your people's genepool must be cleansed of this kind of... Insanity. And, as you might know, becoming hungry rarely requires a lot of thought! That is a survival mechanism of us biological organisms. Or have you not noticed this yet?
But what should one expect of such a young pretender? Of such a young people? You seem to have not yet realized that there is more to the world than just "good" and "evil". There is no such thing as "true evil" nor "true good". There are only shades of grey. Only different views of the world. Brains represent the knowledge of simple issues like this one. Lack of higher brain functions, however, represents your dualist view.
Claiming that the usage of undead by one nation is "evil" and by yourself is "good" is hypocritical, especially if you claim to be the "guardian" of the dead.
As for your claims of our people worshipping you, you must be losing your mind. The fact that people in only a few provinces of our seas worship a god which is not ours is no cause for alarm. In fact it is to be expected in provinces which are surrounded by many hostile dominions, and if you'd pay any attention, the levels of your faith in said provinces has been diminishing for the most part. Surely you should be aware of this? Now that Arcoscephale is gone, our religion will spread from other locations to that place as well. That is how things work in this world.
