The Light.

For the Silver Regent Xiran and those who posture from afar,

It grieves me that I must lift my voice in such a tone but the Light
demands no silence in the face of shadows.
You speak and so must I: clearly, truthfully and without fear.

To the Silver Regent -
You cry out against sacredness defiled but what sacred ground remains
when you welcome the Taint to take root beneath your trees?
A forest may sing with beauty but if rot spreads beneath its roots the
song becomes hollow.
The Resurgence of the Light is not a conquest, it is a cleansing and a
renewal offered again and again to a world weary with decay.
It is your choice to reject it but it is our duty to shine regardless.

Sir Inagin La'saet acted not in hatred but in purpose.
He saw the creeping dark and stepped forward.
That you now call him a villain for doing what many feared to do speaks
more of your shame than his sin.
Your demand that we banish him is not justice, it is scapegoating
disguised as diplomacy.
We will not cast aside one of our own for walking in Truth especially
when others hide behind words and whispers.

As for Lady Zynna she is a caretaker not a desecrator.
Her presence in Delport was not an intrusion, it was responsibility made
manifest.
Your claim of violation disregards the very truth of our stewardship
there and I urge you to consider whether what you truly resent is her
care or the Light she brings.

To Ixchilgal -
You claim irrelevance and still demand to be heard, which is it?
You mock leadership, faith and order while hiding behind your own
irreverence.
There is nothing brave in standing apart and away from such conflict and
throwing stones.
You speak of intelligence as if it were absent in others yet offer none
of your own.
Your words betray no understanding of the Light you so easily scorn.
The Light does not answer ignorance with wrath, it answers with clarity
and so I offer you this:

You may not care for our values. But we do not need your permission to
live them. We do not need your validation to serve them.

Queen Jaye Rea eo stands in that Light not as a tyrant but as one who
has endured, who has listened and who still chooses grace.
You may insult her if it comforts you but do not mistake gentleness for
weakness.
The Dawn does not burn: it illuminates. It awakens. It reveals.

If you cannot see that then you are welcome to remain in shadow.
But know that the Light will still shine.
Not because you approve of it but because it must.

In unwavering faith,
Dawnbringer Numinous Re'Leo
Archimandrite of the Sanctifiers of Loathys
