As the raids turned into wars transpire in the southern realms, news comes from those connected with the faith. It seems the Temple of the One God is calling upon its allied houses and laymen at arms to marshal. As many rumours fly about it seems the Temple will send unprecedented aid to the land of the Aelven king in his war versus Lothia, Bayard and the despised Temple of Blood. It seems truly, recent events have turned the Archpriests demeanour from his balanced and diplomatic self to head on conflict with the Temple of Blood. As he is the leader of the diplomatic faction and usually unconrfonting, this bodes a major powergain for the Temple Militant.

MaelGwyn AP Cadwgan Archipriest of the One God Receives a messenger coming from bayard. King Gotfreed Thraw is amazed at the rumor who reached his ears... It is true that, in a war bringing into conflict these deceptive elfs to the human beings of the North you could choose to help the elfs? You would so give up the human beings because they did not choose your religion? But the elfs will never believe in your God! The human beings can have a change of mind if you to show them that your religion's path is the best...
Something else still, you think that to attack you to an ally of CAMELOT will have no Consequences for the direct reputation of Glendall? Of what are going to think his allies? And your? Your crusades for the power without measuring the consequences for countries state religion of which you are you should think again..
Of sure It that your first interest is to Stay in the good graces of Pendragon, and to see that Camelot's interest is not to lose one of his most faithful allies...just for help this Damned Elfs...
You want to help someone... Where was the Temple of the one God when our villages were plundered by the elfs, our massacred old men and our raped women... Where was your God when I have loose my first son killed by their hanging arrow during he learn to swimm...
Are you really sure to help the elfs and become an traitor to our Race?
For a long time they were a threat for us, if to help them to you, people will keep a grudge to your temple and never you will convert 1 person in Bayard...

A messenger is returned to Bayard in the form of a lay priest escorted by two men at arms.
He states that the whole of Albion was in fact amazed when King Godfred Thraw chose to ignore the generations of predation by Lothia and chose to ally with them after converting to the Temple of Blood. The Temple of the One God has so far not intervened in the northern realms as the Archpriest believes all are to come to God in their own time. Each is part of world of the Creator and choses hiw own path. The Sidhe of Umbria, though not the faithful may yet see the light. The Temple is much more concerned with those who when shown true evil chose to embrace it. The Temple of Blood has shown more than once it is a sickness on the mind, and on the soul of the land.
As the stated goal of the war is the genocide of the Sidhe in Umbria, the Temple of the one God cannot stand by idly. It will intervene, yet it pleads with Bayard to see wisdom and relent in it's attack so a peaceful resolution may be found.

Your messenger returns with this answer of King:
The Elfs attacked us several times and are the real threat for Bayard by their military and magic power they are a threat...
I placed my loyalty and my loyalty in Glendall, I wait for his answer, your temple does not like the temple of the Blood, I know well him it is your right...
I see that you placed your love of the power beyond your condolence for your own race... The Elfs must be reduced not to be any more one threat for our kingdom, if you wish to oppose us only because you have fun by making adventures or hunting trips with sharp ears it is your right but it is not responsible for the humanity...
I know that in the South you are not conscious to have lost the friends and the family in the wars with the elfs... They killed my child meanly, they will pay too the price and will be definitively maintained in their forests...
You want a peace : he his with you ...he can Kneels down in front of me and discuss the levy but only if your temple guarantees its whole word I does not trust them...

As soon as the messenger meets with the Archpriest, as he is travelling northward, he is put on a different mount and sent back:
King Godfred, you have made a free to choice to grant so much power to the Temple of Blood. Yet it is not to late to turn towards the light. I care not for baseless accusations, nor will I answer those. I have pledged to never allow banditry and protect the smallfolk, from peasant or King. War is one thing, vengeance for ones child is another, yet the extermination of a people is beyond defence.
My terms are these, halt your wholesale slaughter of the Umbrian population at once and withdraw to thy own lands. A meaningful peace may put up between you and King Caern which I will gladly stand a neutral party in and oversee -neither- party breaks it.
Proceeding with the atrocities you are performing will bring the Temple forces to have no other recourse than to forcibly out you from Umbria.
