Podium at the Marketplace (open rp)

The small village of Bold Asky´s Stone was bursting at the seams. And was full of hatred. Located in the westermost regions of Cyrodiil and neutral in the war, warriors and soldiers from all factions - Pakt, Covenant, Dominion - would take a rest there and inevitable meet each other. The peaceful village was full of conflicts and small fights. A mere word could lead to death.

The burgomaster (yay, german is okay) took a sad look at some Altmer arguing with a group of Dunmer. An Orc drew a knife - and shed a Khajiit´s blood. He sighed. He had done his very best to keep the war away from Bold Asky´s Stone but by providing a neutral haven he had attracted it. He knew that this was his fault and he knew that he had to something.

The small Imperial climbed on a podium at the marketplace. Usually it was used for executions or proclamations of the Emperor´s agents. But there wasn´t an Emperor right know. He made sure that members of every factions were present on the place. Then he started his speech.

"People of Tamriel! There is war and hatred between the Ebonheart Pakt, the Aldmeri Dominion and the Daggerfall Convenant. There is revile and pain, hate and bloodshed among these faction and between the peoples.

Such loss of life notwithstanding there is a greater enemy. Man, Mer and Beast races share one fiend:

MOLAG BAL

I know I´m neither a Nord, Orc, Altmer nor any other race you may be. I don´t know for what you are fighting for and what you desire in your struggle. You might think that we Imperials started the war. That it is our fault that the world is at the stake. Maybe you are right...

All that I´m saying is that I will save my home and my people from being killed and enslaved by the terrible Lord of repression and abuse!

Also this is what you will do, I hope for Akatosh´s sake.

So if you ever meet on the fields of honour, do your best defeating your enemy and seek victory and glory for your faction!

But if you ever meet on the fields of valor - in the very battle versus Molag Bal the master of corruption and his breed - stand together like one! Don´t let him win!

So, after thousand evil words of mockery, thousand tears for the dead, I´m looking out for your help! Help to save us, us all!

Raise your voice and let me know wether I can count on you!"


(changed version of "To the people of Tamriel...": You are the audience of the speech, how will you react? I think of discussions, row maybe brawls! No dead please and the burgomaster is untouchable)

The crowd was silent. Most people looked angry or offended, some were just ignorant. Since no one said anything, a redguard witchhunter tought he'd help the burgomaster out and take the lead, mostly becouse the yokudan shared his opinion.
- This place is well known for it's peace, and you all know that, that's why you are here. Yet you destroy what you came for. What's the point coming here then? You may as well go to the army. Isn't that what you all trying to avoid here? Look it's not that difficult... You just have to remind yourself that you dont't have anything personal against the others, since you never met. I don't just attack anyone either, since i don't have business with anyone here.
Suddenly, he took an arrow out of his quiver and shot a Nord near him, right on his forehead. He was dead when he hit the ground. The whole scene happened in a second.
- Except for that guy.

@Lazarus ,wow, I wouldn´t have believed it if I have not seen it with my own eyes. Someone replied to my topic! Well I´m sorry to tell you, you all, that I haven´t thought of someone posting here :(. As noone postet within weeks, I´m not prepared to do any moderation or role play guiding. So consider this thread as "Abondoned". If some people still want to do this, it´s okay, but I won´t comment or intervene. The thruth is I really was going to delete this thread. Do whatever you pleases ;)

I´m affraid I will shut this whole down next week, if there aren´t any calls for letting it go on.
