Title: Within cursed Walls
I don't know what draws conflict to this city. I've seen it fall so many times to so many enemies. Worshippers, Vyres, humans both within Misthalin and from outside of her. Every time there were signs, and you could at least tell who was on the horizon. Today I can't see the horizon, and that is of great concern. Something is happening, something stirring. The gangs are acting up, some very public religious violence. It could be the saradominists taking out the opposition before a takeover, maybe the zamorakians hoping to stir up discontent before they make their move. The two groups are building up forces in edgeville and just over the river. Always possible a third party is involved, the zarosians used to have a stronghold to the east but it seems like the saradominists removed them, perhaps another attempt to take out potential opposition. I don't believe it to be the sliskeans, they would simply throw a sword down in the square and declare the contest.
What concerns me most is that on top of not knowing who is doing it, I'm not entirely sure what they are doing. It could be that they are tightening the rope around our necks, ready to kick out the bucket, or, perhaps they this is just the build up before the walls come down. Either way, whatever comes will come quickly and we must be prepared. It would be much easier if we could alert the crown, coordinate with them, but I don't trust them. Could always be their plot to increase royal power but more than likely whoever is pulling the strings has ears in the castle. If what I have in motion is discovered it will likely be seen as treason, and I suppose it is. What can you do when you face an enemy in the shadows? Some would say you shine a light. They would be wrong, light creates the shadows. Only the darkness can remove them.
