Signatures are at the document’s end ::We, a group of many people, feel that the King of Oren is not satisfying his duties. We would like to list our grievances against him in this text. We would hope that he one day looks at them and understands why we have spelled them out and looks f or a way to fix them. ::-The King permitted a ‘peace’ treaty to be drawn with the Undead for a period of time. He could ha ve prevented the treaty from existing, but allowed it to continue until an Undead broke it. ::-The King allowed the Undead to freely walk the roads of Oren unscathed by the Guards. ::-The King has allowed the township of Snowy Fields to fall without his presence in battle. ::-The King has not had anyone try to rebuild or reclaim the township of Snowy Fields from the hands of Iblees. ::- The King has spent the Kingdom’s minas to build another tower on his Personal Keep, where citize ns are not allowed, when the city of Al’Khazar has many gaps in its walls and when the Guards of Ore n are unpaid and untrained. ::-The King has let there be holes in the defenses of Al’Khazar. They are as follows: ::–An unmanned and usually open Northern gate. This is in the direction of the Undead and leaves Al’Khazar very vulnerable. ::–An unwalled harbor area. This allows any invaders to easily circumvent the need to even breach the walls, since there are none present. ::–An unwalled farming area of Al’Khazar. This allows invaders to do the same as listed in the last opening. ::–A Southern gate that is often untended by guards. ::–Sewers that are not patrolled by guards. ::The Grievances resume here. :: :: ::-The King has left the Guards of Oren unpaid. ::-The King has left the Guards of Oren untrained. ::-The King does not present an Army of Oren. Should the Undead invade a city other than Al’Khazar, the Government has no ability to save the city, which happened in Snowy Fields where the guards decided to fight for Snowy Fields AGAINST orders. ::-The King does not have any plans made known for a counter attack against the Undead. ::-The King has presented taxes against the shops of Al’Khazar, with a random amount for each shop, and no consideration for the shops profits. ::-The King has not considered asking the people of Oren what they think a fair tax would be. ::This is our list of Grievances against the King of Oren, in full and unabridged. We present them to you hoping you will do your best to fix the problems listed in the text previous. We believe that you have had ample time to address most of the issues in the Kingdom with the amount of time you have held the throne. They should now be addressed immediately. :: ::Signatures:: ::Erirc Loftson, Sergeant of the Guardians Adian Brod, General of the Guardians ::Odkell Huscarl
