Dearest basin, in my attempts to open your eyes toward the corruption
and tyranny of New Celest's prince, I received an eyewitness report of
this prince's actions, thoughts, and deeds. Please, read on.

Dear Xanon:

Until yesterday, I had no idea what you meant by saying that our prince
was corrupt. He actively sought to cleanse the taint from the basin, and
seemed to lead our city with a firm, but well-guided hand.

That was a truly false perception.

My friend (censored for their safety, hereafter referred to as Mr. X)
and I were out hunting leeches, to collect essence for our city, and Mr.
X fell victim to the leech. I knew not what to do, so I quickly grabbed
his corpse, and took it to the most knowledgeable person i could think
of, Prince Forren.

I gave the corpse Mr. X to forren.

Forren was so enraged, that he threw the corpse of a Mr. X on the floor
and stomped on it viciously, all the while gibbering insanely!

I was terrified, and could not understand the babble coming from our
prince's mouth, and so i attempted to flee in fear, before I was struck
in the back by a powerful torrent of water, and I truly believe that I
am thankful to be alive.

After casting me down and leaving me for dead, our prince quickly
grabbed several members of our city and went on a killing rampage,
spilling the blood of anyone he encountered. His target was clear: He
was heading for Nil's demon lords, as he is always obsessing about.

He was successful for the most part, and slew many Magnagorans, all the
while bathing in their blood. I watched from a distance.

He then encountered a demon lord that he knew was too tough for him.
Despite this, he continued on, and demanded that several of our
citymates rush the demon lord, hoping to weaken it first, so that he
would survive. None did. The prince himself fled to his divine havens,
leaving countless Celestians dead and dieing across Nil.

It was gruesome. Please, Xanon, Basin, stop this tyrant from spilling
more blood, so that we may walk in the light peacefully.

Thank you for hearing my words,

(Mr. E)

These words, basin, I can verify for you, having been witness to the
demon lord slaying. I know that this is not simply propaganda, but
indeed, truth. This is the man that would have you 'walk peacefully with
the light.'
