[Calahan]

Oh mighty Lord Chill

Many Fomorians speak highly of your fine race, indeed most of the Fir Bolg's in our society have close relatives from the great nation of Tir'Na Nog. So any worsening of relations between our two nations will certainly cause much unrest throughout all of Fomoria.

But please understand that Fomoria did not start the war against Marverni, and it is certainly not Fomoria's war of aggression. The subjects of my land simply demand action and justice for an unwarranted attack by Marverni. In the first month of fall, a large mass of flesh bearing warriors simply marched over the river, completely out of the blue, and attempted to force their will on the innocents of Fomoria.

So please tell what other course of action do I now posses other than to retaliate? The Marverni attack was no accident. It was not a mis-understanding. It was an attack of pure aggression on their part, and also an act of war.

The people of my land will never accept a simply apology, and neither can mercy be shown to such an un-warranted attack by Marverni. Fomoria surely has the right to defend itself against a hostile neighbour does it not?

Please do not paint Fomoria with the brush of tyrant in this conflict. Every ruler who cares about the safety and well being of his people would do no different to what I have done. Can any leader truly lead if he is unwilling to act against attacks to his realm? Can a leader lead if he does nothing but sit idle while his lands are ravaged and his people slaughtered? I am sure you will agree that he can not on both counts.

Calahan, Lord of the Fomorian Death Giants
