Suspicion

[History Guy]

Nay! Nay! We cannot smuggle them squids, for Vox Controli is not only controlled by One Voice, but by the Great Eye, lidless, wreathed in flame. It sees all. We couldnt smuggle them squid. 10,000 men could not do it. It is folly!

As for the origin of the Vox Controli, the people believe that it is the product of the Big Mouth.

I agree with Senor Clemente also. Vitamin Squid deficientcy certainly has something to do with it, but there are far greater, more foul thing in the deep places of the world...and in the land of Persia. They are, I say again, all mad. Whether it is by lack of squid, or anything else, they are all mad. I hope we can convert them to the true faith, but if not, they are simply far too dangerous to be left alone.

What if the One Voice is a true God?
Perhaps it is our own God too?
(only with a different name)

There is no One God. It is heresy to suggest that there is only a single voice speaking for the spirit world.

AWESOME REFERENCE!

Perhaps we should form an alliance of the "captains of the West", for this is a threat to ALL the free peoples of the world... me must join with the other free peoples of Apolyton to smite this foul force of evil!

Who says anything about smuggling squid? Why can't our merchants just go to the local marketplaces and sell it as an exotic delicacy? Alas, I don't understand commerce very well.

The one voice shall be overcome with the thousands of voices of all Spania combined!
The mere fact that they dare to claim land in the name of another ruler than the great Despot, and that thtey claim a voice to talk in the name of all the spirits is a blaspheme!
We must grow strong, benefitting from them as we see fit, then smashing their evil and frreing the poor citizens from the opression and barbarie!

Señor Nucleus... You might be right, or you might be wrong.

We should intensivate the diplomacy in the standard polite way,
and we will eventually find out if they are really bad,
or able to cooperate with us.

Perhaps the One Voice thinks just like some of us?
To stay proud, cooperate, and gain victory.
Then we could face hard competition.
But we must remain friendly for now,
and hide our feelings and ambitions behind the drama mask.

[OOC] Heh heh, I know...[/ooc]

We can't sell it in the markets, young master Pikesfan. You see, the eye of the Vox Controli sees all, and he forbids squid. I think it had something to do with an occasion when he was just a little voice, and he got some calamari down the wrong tube, and in effect embarrased himself in front of everyone. Then, he cursed the stuff, and swore it off forever, and his mind became corrupted. The Dark Lord then took over Vox Controli, and it was only a final alliance of elves and men that drove him back into the dark land of Mordor, where Vox Controli now lives. Shame them elves are all in Valinor these days, otherwise we might just have recruited them to make the final drive. Ah well.

The free peoples of Middle Earth (our part of the world, for it is, from our maps, roughly near the middle), should indeed try and unite to force out these evil minions, and their dark neighbors of China also, for they are totally evil. Some say that these Chinese ride horses (in fact, they call themselves Riders), or if those are hard to find, they ride olliphants. Perhaps, one day we might drive away these warmongers, or horse lords as they are sometimes known. Perhaps an alliance should become an empire, one that controls all this land to drive away the forces of darkness, and our glorious Togas should be crowned Emperor of the West.

Those elves and their fleeing capacities!
In fact the ring of the voice has corrupted his soul and mind, but as for now he doesn´t sees us as an enemy. The eye of the voice thinks he can befriend and corrupt us as it is said that he did with the great sage Saruman. We must get it´s weapons and any oportunities we have to befriend the voice and take out the ring of the voice, or else all efforts in killing Saurjon the Miller shall be fruitless.

[History Guy]

Quite, quite, quite.

It is my fear that an alliance of orcs and men will most probably be made between those monstrous Chinese and the Vox Controli of the land of Mordor where the shadows lie. Those two together would be undestructable, and they themselves are by far the most evil race of men or animals the world has ever seen. If they cannot be destroyed, the power of their hate will darken out Middle Earth, and the Vox Controli, with it's flaming eye, shall drive out the squids forever, imprisoning his people in a permanent state of madness and servitude. This cannot be allowed to happen.

And hey! When did Saruman the Wise abandon reason for madness?
