The war is over. I saw it first hand as me and my men slew the great Devil Kelgor the great gates to hell closed.
Both My people and Covania have suffered heavy losses but I'm sure if they wanted to they could easily march over and take my throne.
However it seems the bloodlust has been quelled for them, I must say so has mine. I barely remember why I started this war…I thought I was fighting for pride, to not let another nation judge and manipulate our ways… but seeing so many of my people killed…even in the line of study I follow..it was too much.
That must seem rich coming from a Grave Warden such as myself. We are supposed to be pushing the bounds of life and death. Death is something I manipulate but…

So I met with the Covanian Council. The leaders of Covania. The meeting place was the capital of Covania itself. I went alone
It may seem foolish but I need every hand back home helping to put our land back to a normal again and honestly, I can't stand the sad looks I get from them
My journey to Covania reminded me of how different our countries were…and how much I dispise their way of living.
The wealthy and powerful control the poor and weak.
In Oxtrad the Wealthy and powerful are a beacon for others to rise too. That's how I was taught. I remember when I first joined the ranks of our soldiers. They didn't even pay attention to me until I issued a direct challange.
My opponent beat me down but I kept getting up. Even with a broken arm I still picked myself up and fought until I blacked out. After that I woke up officially part of the soldiers. Battered and bruised but successful.
I Image if you tried that here you would be made a fool or killed on the spot.
I have been called cruel before but its the way things are in Oxtrad, Weakness has no placed in the cold lands.

First meeting the council I almost laughed aloud. It was obvious the tried their best to intimidate or show off. Whatever the two. There was still obvious tension between us and I wouldn't have blamed them if the thought to double cross me hadn't crossed their minds.
The once leader of their enemy nation now standing alone in the heart of their country.
but what ever they are they are not foolish. They have surely herd reports of my presence on the battlefield. I wouldn't have cone alone if I didn't think I could handle the situation and that uncertainty is the only thing keeping me safe right now

Outlawed races… weather I agree or disagree doesn't matter people need something to blame. Race has never held a place in my land as long as you showed strength I am not sure how to go about this purge…maybe I can
