Letter from Haruka Vanimedle'

Knight Bowie,

It is an interesting read, but there are some points I think need correcting.

"While the Liberonians justified this war as the means to recover and save Thulsoma from its earlier trauma (witchcraft), from the Saxon perspective it was viewed as an order of subjugation"

The Liberite's justified this war as an attempt to recover the Nifeland's, which they claim to have historically lost, and King Sejieda claims to have the right to own. Which Thulsoma denied, has a greater historical claim to and have said that neither the nobility nor the peasantry recognise the Liberite right, nor do some nobles in Libero, furthered by the fact Libero Empire could neither take, nor defend the Stormland's from monster invasions, nor did they have the knights to support the regions.

Also, for the articles of "Whose Heresy Is It?" I think it worth a mention that Thulsoma is and was pluralistic and allowed Sanguis Astroism in its realm unopressed and we went out of our way to speak with Sanguis Astroism to inform them of this, and to reach religious agreements, we where ignored. Though the Archon of Xinhai swore an oath of peace on this basis, an oath that extends to this day over the Aegir duchy.

Furthermore for the article of "Over Gilles' Dead Body", the infiltrator Gilles Barek was captured and proven to be guilty of sabotage attempts and tempted murder of high ranking assassins, without provocation and war declaration.

Also, if you wish to use more sources for your historical you may use Thulsoma's "Annals of history" and sub sections of it.

If you have any other questions, I can answer them.
