Vinyaangmar

From the pen of Herumor, XVIIth King of Vinyaangmar, Lord of the Northern Misty Mountains, and Liege of Nuach Carn Dûm.
Friends, citizens and leaders of the world, as I write the nation of Vinyaangmar is deadly peril, the shadow of barbarism threatens to engulf the nation, and great hordes stand ready to invade, overturning centuries of peace and prosperity in their greed for conquest and their bloodlust.
I do not write to solicit your aid, for I would not ask when there are those in this world more deserving of aid than both myself and my humble nation. I write instead to expose, once and for all the barbarism of these invaders. The invaders, sauriquendi they are called, call themselves elves. This is no doubt perceived by the other elves of the world as a direct insult to their honour and integrity, and I cannot help but agree.
Recently I have captured in my lands, three spies from this rogue state, Thelas, whose information I believe should be heard by all the peoples of the world. Not that these so-called elves would invade purely for pillage, based on rumours, hearsay and ancient grudges long forgotten by the world. Not even that they would violate a nation’s integrity based on the fauna they have found in that nation.
Instead, I write to expose the abuses that the Thelasi government heaps upon its own people. The spies have, under no cruel coercion, (quite contrary to what I am informed is Thelasi Standard Operating Procedure I might add) confessed that they have knowledge of concentration camps run by the Thelasi government for its own people including members of the Thelasi military establishment who have been adjudicated by their superiors to be failures. In these camps, the so-called enemies of the Thelasi government are worked to death in producing armaments and raw materials for the ever-expanding Thelasi war-machine.
Therefore, I abdicate, effective immediately. I surrender all claims and titles of lordship and of dominion. Additionally, I am surrendering the vast majority of my personal wealth to the leaders of several nations who can be relied upon to make judicious use of it. I myself shall be departing the nation of Vinyaangmar post-haste, in order to best attempt to spare the people further wrath of their enemies.
As a gesture of good faith, my last directive as King of Vinyaangmar is to pardon the Thelasi spies recently captured of all charges that can be laid against them by the nation of Vinyaangmar, and for all possible aid to be provided to them in reaching safety from the tyrannical reach of their own former government.
In the hope that this missive has been of some use in suppressing or at least exposing the vile tendencies of ‘lord’ Nosirin and the corrupt Thelasi Regime,
Herumor, Former King of Vinyaangmar
Enclosed with most copies of the letter delivered to just about every mass media outlet and government that could be found, was a video copy of the ‘interrogation (http://www.forums.jolt.co.uk/showpost.php?p=7737140&postcount=15)’ of Cerenna by Herumor, only slightly edited, removing some of the more affectionate gestures, and the brief moment of violence where he had forced her to sit (for the camera that was used for close ups of her face) but most certainly the best analyses would reveal the tapes to be genuine, if copies.
