This month, I took the time to read the hateful messages exchanged between Istrania, Serrano, Koperdam, the Kuri//aes, and Coronado. I was left speechless. However, I have a question for you, leaders of these nations:
Who are you?
When I first met you, I discovered passionate individuals intrigued by science and commerce, all in the service of your citizens. Yet, the very next day, you are threatening to slaughter one another.
I will say this only once.
War - sending innocents to fight for your ideas - is an act of profound and despicable cowardice. And imprisoning someone for life over a mistake, a grave one, certainly, but a mistake nonetheless, is just as cowardly. True courage lies in finding a way to make concessions. Courage lies in finding a solution for rehabilitation. Courage lies in finding a way to dispense justice impartially and fairly.
As I write these words, I hardly know what to think. To say that disappointment has clouded my judgment would be an understatement.
To the leaders of Hekamat: know that the shedding of even a single drop of innocent blood will void my proposed Desert Pact, provided Koperdam heeds my suggestion. However, should that southern nation persist in trampling our lands without our consent, know this: while I will not participate in the war myself, I will agree to provide Kedet’s medical services so that as few lives as possible are lost in this futile conflict.
To Henry Westcroft and Percival van der Berg: continue the work to Kheta-Kedet. As for The Gateway, my position is simple: do not build it. These lands are not yours, and my neighbors, despite their barbaric threats, have made their position clear. Make our city, or another willing to shoulder the responsibility, the hub of your network. But do not steal land. For if you ignore their demands, the resulting bloodshed will ultimately be on your hands.
I also ask that you reconsider the sentence imposed on Willem Voss. By imprisoning him for twenty consecutive years, you are condemning him to death: first a social death, then a physical one, once solitude and remorse have finished consuming his soul.
Now, leaders of the north and south, the choice is yours. Who will you be?
The Six will be watching.
Kheta-Semet, Queen of the Desert and Chosen of the Six.
