[i][indent][indent]Captain Maya and the few soldiers of Tirnanog had two distinctions amidst the whirlwind age to come. In the Grannvale - Issach subjugation war of 757 brought on by the sacking of Darna and the death of King Mananan, one distinction was that their unit was the first to see combat in the theatre. The second -- they were also the first to feel the sting of death. Maya would soon be joined by millions of souls lost over the next two decades as Grannvale's influence swept across Jugdral, in part by the scheming of soon re-risen Loptous cult. Time and time again, great tragedy would befall the land of Jugdral, only for those bearing holy blood to reclaim a shred of peace -- their descendants however. . .[/indent][/indent][/i]

No longer will our people stand to be used and abused by those in power merely for the sake of their lineage. Jugdral is aswarm with fleas grown fat on the backs of 'lesser' men, fleas that cannot see beyond the blood they feed on."[/indent][/indent]

One castle and a handful of farmers and ruffians is hardly enough to take on the world. It's simply impossible that the rest of the country won't respond."[/indent][/indent]

Long have you sweat for the slave drivers who were handed our reigns more than a century ago, now all I ask is that you bleed for me, that we may cast off their yoke and see Miletos returned to the days of common men![/indent][/indent]
