Just so everyone's aware, Count Vasha just declared war on the Weeping Widows.

[indent][quote][i]To the 'Brides' of Daigon,

For some time now you have stationed the heart of your cult in the Saltwater Sea, sending out your missionaries and servants to help the downtrodden and the desperate. While I know for a fact that these actions have made you an often praised name among the lips of the lower orders of Nagath, praising you for your good deeds is not the purpose of this message. 

Since the establishment of your little cult, I have generously protected the heart of your order from those that would wish you destroyed by preventing those that would do you harm from being able to access the Saltwater Sea, sinking countless ships over the centuries out of mutual good will and to watch with interest how your order developed. 

While at first the proud citizens of Tushiena was more then willing to shoulder such a burden, as of late the subject of redefining what the relationship between our nation and your cult has arisen. Many of my court have expressed the opinion that our nations generous offers of protection and trade have been... taken for granted. Some have even questioned why we continue to allow you to exist as an independent power, since Tushiena provides the bulk of your fortress' defenses from invaders as well as controls the supply routes going into and out of said island fortress. 

Some have even gone so far as to make rather compelling arguments about claiming the fallen fortress and the seawater sea in the name of Tushiena, presenting plans for the fortress island to become a trading hub for the more land locked powers of Nagath who lack the naval ability to partake in trade, as well as offering the Deep One citizens a chance to colonize the sheltered Seawater Sea in order to expand their holdings and secure a safe place to spawn and raise their young. 

I am not an unfair tyrant through, thus why I am sending this message. I am giving you this opportunity to convince me that leaving you as an interdependent power on a rock in the middle of an inland sea is to Tushiena's best interests. A chance to tip the scales about if we should claim what is ours in all but name in your favor.

I look forward to hearing your reply. 

~Count Vasha.[/i][/quote][/indent]
