Wizards of Arragoth, Listen well and heed my words for I speak with the voice of my liege lord, Swodd, King of the Under Dwarves. We are a solitary people and little interested in the affairs of the Over Land. We have expected nothing from you and asked nothing of you save that you leave us to our works in peace. It seems, however, that this peaceful arrangement may be in jeopardy. In the face of the return of the Fire Gods' son, certain of the races have taken it upon themselves to become the sole arbiters of honor and justice. While the Underdwarves will not stand in the way of any alliance seeking to defeat Arragoth, we will not tolerate actions that impinge upon the sovereignty of our nation. To the Minotaurs, then, and those who wish to stand with them; we wish you luck in your endeavors but caution you not to presume to judge the honor of our race or to dictate our actions. Our lands and affairs are our own and we will not be bullied by your martial declarations. Seek not to intimidate the other races into compliance with your whims, for we will stand for any nation whose neutrality is violated. Finally, to the twisted inhabitants of Nightscar; trust is a fragile thing and your history of perpetual predations has done little to prove you worthy of it. If any of your miserable kind raids our city again, you will be destroyed. Written by My hand, Dalkric, Lord of Blackrock, First Advisor to King Swodd The Free and Neutral Nation of the Under Dwarves

Hail, I have been busy of late with many important projects / constructions. The Minotaur peoples have worked hard at expanding the frontiers of their empire ready for the onslaught of the fire god and his minions. There seems to be some concern that the alliance between the Minotaurs and certain other races is some form of militaristic tyranny, we will assure any not of this alliance that this is not the case, it is merely a promise of non aggression between such peoples whilst the threat of the fire god reigns, this is to allow all petty squabbling and bickering to be put to one side so that we may fight the real enemy, if any races not a member of this alliance would wish to join and they have no grievences with present members then it should not present a problem to allow entry. For those races that have no wish to join then all I can say is that you either deeply mistrust our intentions and view us as a threat or that you side with the fire god. In either case you will be viewed with deep suspision until any actions you may perform prove otherwise. I hope that we could all rise to meet the fire god and conquer this challenge and allow an era of fairness and prosperity to reign over the world. If any leaders have any suggestions or proposals towards these aims I will remain open to them. Harry Keogh For the people of Bulls Canyon

Greetings Fellow Wizards,I, Ulfrik, chief wiseman of the plains, wish to introduce myself as the new leader of the plainsmen people. I plan to lead my people in opposition to Arragoth, and I deliver this warning - I shall react with hostility to all those who oppose me in this most might of persuits...
Though I am newly risen to the rank of wizard, I have no doubt that my abilities will be sufficient to deal with the foul and twisted godling, with the help of our allies, of course. On that note, I wish to propose an alliance to you all. I shall respect the borders of those who ally with me against Arragoth, and make no hostile move against them. Those who seek to aid the god will be destroyed.
I also wish to announce my alliance with the noble warriors of the minotaur people. Long May they Prosper.
Yours In Glory,
Ulfrik, Chief Wiseman of the Plains.

To all the children of Fate, As the sands of time have swept the paths of history, we, the Sandpeople, have sought truth and wisdom. The desert is a wise teacher who has bestowed upon us the knowledge that change is not an obstacle, but an opportunity for adaptation and growth. Know this. We do not praise the son of Arragoth nor do we condemn him. We accept his arrival as a natural progression of history. Only Fate will decide which races and which rulers will prevail. As truth can only be unearthed when one's mind is pure, we shall refrain from pursuing the Son of Fire in a crusade of greed and pride. Therefore, we seek instead a position of neutrality, to be left alone in our desert haven. Like the cactus who sits quietly in meditation waiting for the rain to bring sustenance, our strength lies in our patience. We shall wait out the destruction of your wars and battles, until everything is crushed and crumbled, torched and torn, a world reduced to its basic elements -- sand and ash. It is in this world that ignorance will falter, for only those who have Wisdom will be able to adapt and survive. Until then, we shall support those who also seek neutrality, offering to them our friendship and knowledge. However, know that any alliance formed with us has been predetermined to prosper or wither according to the natural law. Until time itself is obliterated, the Sandpeople will be governed by the master hand of Fate, the force of balance and truth in the universe. I have spoken.

Centuries ago, Arragoth arrived with his foul companions and drove us from our rightful place atop the mountain. The time has come for us to regain our home. We WILL defeat the fire god and return to our native lands. Since Arragoth's coming, this accursed swamp has been our home. Oh, how we long to leave this wet, diseased land. The unbearable heat, the snakes, the filth, the unending rain...accursed swamp. For centuries, my people have prepared for the day when we would be strong enough to regain our land, having only wood as a substitute for the infinitely better stone or iron which is almost nonexistent in this vile quagmire. Generations have passed along the knowledge and hatred of the fire god and now we are strong enough to return to the mountain. We will not be denied. This is our fate. To those who would fight against the evil, we will gladly fight at your side for the greater good. Be it known that once allied, we will stand with and for you to the end, be it victory or death. We expect no less in return. Those in league with the evil god and those who stand in the way of our return to the mountain will DIE! Barazsul of the Hill Dwarves

It seems that communication is something we lack. My attempts to contact my allies have had little success, and it seems that this war will go on forever, or until Arragoth's minions overpower or fractured forces and rampage through the land. The Orcs, though poorly mismanaged in the past, are beginning to turn around. Heroes and their armies surround Purple Flame Volcano, and forces flow to the battlezone every mouth. Soon the time will come for a counterstrike. My ally Swodd, who has been totally silent as of late, seems to have similar intentions. Magus Doom is moving towards Purple Flame also, and after skirmishes with my scouting parties nothing has been heard from him, so I am assuming his intentions are hostile, as he has attacked the Minotaurs in the past. I make a call out to the alliance and my other allies to contact each other with news, status reports, and the like. The Orcs are currently in dire need of wood. Without it our development ceases and all I can do is churn out more troops, while my empire stays at the same state. I am stepping up production of Iron, Mithril, Stone, and Gems. I will trade for Wood with any of the above resources. This is going out to my neighbors Swodd, Ighthorn, and Castile. Send a messanger and we will arrange terms suitable for both our parties. With that, I retire and prepare for war. The Orcs fight on, Thanatos Blackbane. Ruler of Nightscar.
