<In a Bloody Scrawl>
The "Empire" of Salma,

Your ways are not welcome.

Your mistreatment of our forests enrages the Heartwood.

Too long have we left you untouched.

Too long have you been allowed to spit in the face of the Wilds.

These fourteen sacrifices of your people are a warning.

Fourteen for the Guardians of the Heartwood and Albedos.

Fourteen for your blood price.

Change your ways and venerate the Cycle for you chose our forests as your home.

The blood price will be paid should you fail.

In Defiance,
General Speaker of Duiran
His Fatalist
Portent of the Wild Host
Aelir

Penned by my hand on Falsday, the 19th of Ios, in the year 6 AC.
