Filth,

You think this is just about personal loss? This is about the short-sightedness of your city.

You bemoan that Duiran did not listen to Spinesreach. It's true, they did not. And now the rest of us have been left to clean up their mess. But now? You have made another, potentially larger mess. Your short-sighted attack has done irreperable damage to the land. Your city has caused harm that will compound over the years. Do you even know what the long term effects will be? I bid you to speak to those in Delve about the wastes on Albedos.

But what is worse? The significant chance that your weapon has alerted Oblivion itself. My only solace? That you and your city most will not be there when its scouts and forces come. You were right to fear the Shadow. But now? It is the Light you should fear.

Your end will be a step towards the Dawn. Your Dragon will not save you.
