Good evening, Patrians!
I regret to inform you that, after being asked numerous times, we have finally decided to allow Vaktovia to walk away from the UAF-VAK war. Haughty Vaktovians, seeing no reason to fight such an "easy" war (imgr /0qzB2qj), launched a massive invasion against UAF on Saturday the 25th.
Their might was broken. Not even Vaktus nor the implementation of the third cycle could break the Motherland's people. What's more, the Motherland's vicious counterattack secured a whole host of victories.
Such a setback displeased our dear foes, who began refusing to defend, despite personal assurances to the contrary (hFSiUmT & CCB8AJf img). Incensed by such vile antics, I indicated to the Vaktovian HICOM that their refusal to defend would equate to an inability to raid. In response to their continued refusal, their raids at RS were shutdown.
So ended the inglorious invasion of the Vaktovian Empire. Paradoxically, their resounding defeat inspired them to make ultimatums that we were to accept or "end the war" (imgr, v4NFyKx,BTQIjyt,P2vPIbG,gcQiVfQ,W4Tv4F4).
I traveled to Vaktovia, seeking answers and compromise. Vaktus, however, refused compromise and shut down our negotiations...permanently (/DaE3EMm ,imgr). Now they have repeated their ultimatums to us, refusing all of our proposed compromises.
With a final score of 3-2, I hereby accept Vaktovia's request to end the war in our favor. In the Vaktovian world view, an escape now is far better than losing a fair war; I will not fault them for continuing to hold such archaic views. Perhaps our clan world will heal in time, but it is not healed yet.
You fought well and honored your Motherland, Patrians. We are proud to have had the privilege of leading you and ask that you stand beside us in the momentous tasks that lie before us. You, Patrian, are among the embers of the phoenix that heralds a new dawn for all clans. Stand strong, and be ready.
The Motherland calls.
Signed,
