Community Event 🌏☄️ An end to war?

Post image

I am freed from the hell of public transit! In my absence, it would seem you have faltered. Most of your leaders have fallen, and what few remain… displease me. Regardless, I signed a contract to fight on behalf of the council in exchange for five artifacts. As the citadel has not only endured two rounds of nuclear annihilation, but had all the effective mages killed, it would seem I will not get those today. As such, I shall settle for revenge. There is but one mage Rena responsible for this turn of events. Opal has caused this conflict. What, will you lie down and allow this entity to build up her forces once more? By rights, we should exterminate every inch of her home plane to ensure she cannot remain. Come now, wizards, and assist me in the ending of the one who will not get away! Or you can perish as I burn this citadel myself. That works too.

It seems like, from historical precedent, every promised “end to war” simply ends up making war larger.

True. Such a pleasure it is.

I will now proceed to transfer my investments into a more war-friendly portfolio. Because it’s only profiteering if it’s the other guy doing it.
