Declaration of War on the Dark Gods
I, GOVERNOR YMIR II, SON OF YMIR THE FIRST, DO SWEAR MY BLOOD TO DESTROY YOU, THE CULT OF THE DARK GODS. FOR THE DIVINE LIGHT OF THRYMM AND AMMAN THE ALL FATHER SHINE ON US, WHILST DARKNESS CLOUDS THE CRUETLY OF YOUR SOULS. YOUR TEMPLES IN OUR ISLES WILL BE SHATTERED, YOUR FOLLOWERS DINED UPON, YOUR SEVILES CLAIMED FOR US, BEG MERCY FROM YOUR TREACHEROUS GODS, OH FOLLOWERS OF THE DARK ONES, AND LET AN ICY GRAVE CLAIM YOU BEFORE THE BLADE OF OUR JOTUN.”
Purpose
A chilling document that objectively ties in the war against the forgotten gods into the narrative weave of history; this declaration of war relates to Aedrinarian myths about Odin’s bargain with Jotun Ymir, and the pledging of allies in their war. This document is also one of the few that shows Krowethia in a good light, and since Jotun was still an active colony at this point it implies the entire empire pledged to help the humans of these islands. Historians are divided on why, and the current theory is that because the early Ice Elves arrived on the islands at this time, who the giants were allied to, that is the most likely explanation. This facts of this war are lost to time, with only the gods knowing the true history behind this mysterious stone tablet.
