PDX Games IX: Western Pre-Turkic Empire
Posted: Thu Feb 27, 2020 5:09 amToday is the end of the delusion of free will. The guiding hand of the divinely inspired returns to take your hand and return you all to civilization. As I speak, the so-called revolutionaries are being dragged away for their insubordination to the throne. After centuries of conflict over control of this thread, the old guard have returned en masse in order to bring back order and stability. Tradition and honor. Valor and courage. The degeneracy of those who would cause lawlessness and chaos have been silenced.
I stand before you all as a survivor. I was forced to flee my homeland because of those who lied to advance their own gain. Who abused your trust with platitudes of freedom. I will make no such false promises. The world is not a free place. There is always a price to pay to live in this world and that will not change. The rich and powerful will always rule over the weak and poor, it is the nature of humanity. And it is a fundamental reality of nature itself. And it is upon these realities of nature that we must follow. We must believe in the strengths and weaknesses of humanity are good and just. It is a matter of fact that men are ill-fit rulers, they lack the intellectual capacity to rule fairly and peacefully. History has shown that when this thread has been led by a woman, we lived in a Renaissance, a Golden Age of peace and prosperity. Mankind has only brought destruction and ruin in their wake.
Today is the restoration of my divine right to the Paradox throne. All who bear witness to me, basks in the presence of God on Earth. I live to serve as a direct representation of the Lord and be an inspiration for all to follow in her footsteps. It is my mandate to ensure peace above all things. Drugs and alcohol will be banned and purged from society, they are the great instigators of violence and degeneracy for all who consume them. To even allow their existence courts temptation and temptation is the devil that resides deep within us all. Private sexual activity will also be banned. Behind closed walls, the devil courts great evil. Only public displays will be permissable in order to ensure the purity of the act is not being tarnished. Families of all races, genders, cultures, and creeds will be meticulously resettled and forced to live in close proximity with one another. It is only through understanding the differences between us that we can learn our place in the world and respect them.
This is the will of the God-Empress and may her rule be eternal and unblemished.
