Dear Araisa,
I have pondered your words, but alas the concept of the world being a river only reminds me of running water, which in turn triggers a Pavlovian urge to pee. While I concede it is hypothetically possible that a nation with such amazing cultural depth as T'ien C'hi could have a national philosophy based upon biological functions, I think it more likely that I am simply culturally unequipped to understand The Way - or that perhaps it is time for me to invest in a set of Depends Adult Nappy Pants, to deal with my obvious incontinence issues.
We of Ermor are simple folk. We are dedicated to the ultimate equality of all creatures, and have found that the penultimate expression of equality is found in death (or rather, undeath). After all, any two shambling zombies are much the same, irrespective off whether one was once a prince and the other a pauper.
Some feel that we seek to hurry death to bring this about, but nothing could be further from the truth. Death can afford to be patient, as eventually it comes to all. Our national philosophy is to enjoy life and its privileges while they last, for after you pass through the final veil, only mindless drudgery and the eternal equality of the grave await.
Best wishes, and hoping for a future filled with friendship and love,
Lady Esmeralda, First Consul of Ermor
