However Westmoor will prove as treacherous a neighbour to Nivemus as she has to Fontan so the prospects for a war which sucks in Sirion may be good once Fontan falls. As to whether Sirion finally learns to fight offensively though is another matter. I suspect a repeat of the Northern War with everything beyond the Sirion River falling but that splendid ring of fortresses keeping the southern forces at bay.
Like we were to the Obsidian Islands? You know, acting as stewards for their land in the peninsula, repairing them, then returning them?
Westmoor never betrayed Fontan. Period. Any messages between Flaylen and Gregor and other realms were never sent to the other members of the realm. The Kingdom itself was told it was to prevent Fontan's outright destruction or something. Was a while ago, so I confess I don't recall the details, however it was played as worked out between Flaylen and Fontan. Gregor's actions were his own. Don't blame Westmoor for things he says or do.
From Westmoor's standpoint, we were the ones betrayed. It was Fontan who broke the Alliance, Fontan who declared war, Fontan who attacked our people and our lands.
And two monarchs later? It is Fontan who demands land, treasure, and frankly, power, in return for peace. All the while their number of troops were rising.
Westmoor tried to make a fair peace, but was rebuffed. Westmoor knows Fontan's always had plans to betray us (such information leaked during the tenure of virtually every monarch I've served with in Westmoor). If Fontan absorbed Westmoor, it eyes would have eventually fallen on Ashforth to "restore" their lands.
Flaylen betrayed alliances. Westmoor did not.
A King is the embodiment of a Kingdom until they are no longer King. As more information was revealed, Flaylen was protested out and no longer king.
The only excuse that Caligus has is opportunism, i don't believe on that garbage about 1v1, about other realm helping, etc.
The facts are that Westmoor were crying all over the ruler channel for help, they came to the forums to cry OCC as well!
What will they do? War every realm who harbors Ibladesh, then the War will continue forever! you can erase a nation (Lies just the FLAG) but no the nobles. Once a nation is destroyed those nobles make another stronger.
Is funny how Caligus comes with arrogance now, they have no merits in the EC, nothing of what they have have got them by themselves.
Come on, finish this quick!
Except your facts are lies.
Caligus (and Perdan) warned about harboring certain members of the leadership of Ibladesh and their families. If they don't do this, no one will take their warnings/threats seriously. Perdan was the one that mentioned 1v1, not Caligus.
Westmoor, being myself, did not "cry all over the ruler channel for help". On the contrary, I have said very little over the ruler list. Nor have we "cried" on the forums. We did, however, express concern about a clan in Fontan. A concern which was obviously backed up by the Magistrates, the Devs, and most importantly, by Tom. Also, it's OOC, for Out Of Character.
What will Caligus and Perdan do? Oh, I certainly do hope they enforce their anti-Ibby edict. It's the only way they will be taken seriously. Though mind you, they're not persecuting all former members of Ibladesh. Simply Ibby leadership (of the Church especially) . Their main goal is, mind you, to destroy the remaining Ibby temples to demolish the religion. This is something that they can very well do.
Funny is that Fontan claims Westmoor will betray Nivemus/etc... When Fontan's the one known for betraying and destroying many of their closest allies over the years. Get over yourselves
