(OOC: I hope this forum is the right one to use for matters like this. I have been pointed to the fact that not everyone from the French community regularily takes a look at the English forums that most of us German-speaking players use for "international" purposes. So I will post this letter here even though I do not speak French at all, which I apologize for. Hope it's alright. The same one was posted on the English forums and Icus, Maximus and Sazalar are now using this thread to discuss the Matis-Fyros-relations OOC here: http://app.ryzom.com/app_forum/index.php?page=topic/view/16963/11 #11)
*a letter is sent by Zhoi to the Senate in Pyr*
Honored imperial Senators!
I have a warning to voice and politely ask of you to take this warning into consideration.
1. you might remember that Akenak Icus has uttered an insult towards the Matis ("Again, the Matis are irrevelant and completely stupid but it's in (their) nature") during the first Assembly of the Full Akenak and Government of Pyr on Thermis 7th in the first cycle of AtysYear 2572 (OOC: February 24th 2013). All Fyros-authorities, the Senate and even the respectable Sharükos Lykos, have been present and have not commented this incident at all.
Surely they must have overheard this during the tumultuous and loud assembly, however they also chose to stay silent after a note of protest has been written by Filira Salazar Caradini and even after an ultimatum was issued by the Matis Chamber of Nobles with the prospect to stop diplomatic contacts.
Akenak Icus chose to stay silent. All other Fyros-authorities did so as well.
The current consequence is that the Matis will now withdraw their ambassadors and will have the Fyros-ambassadors leave the kingdom. This could have been prevented.
But Silence has made it happen.
2. you know that I have asked the most honorable Sharükos Lykos to please pronounce judgement about the Akenak Icus, Rollocks and Gunbra who were spreading defamatory rumours about my humble self. I have written an open letter on Nivia 27th in the first cycle of 2572 (OOC: March 6th 2013). On Thermis 6th in the second cycle of AtysYear 2572 (OOC: March 14th 2013) I was told that the letter has been forwarded to the honored Emperor.
No reactions are known to me as of yet, and the rumors have of course spread further up until now; even troublemakers have been making use of this to wage conflict between the Fyros people and Zorai people.
I wanted to prevent exactly this from happening by addressing the honored Sharükos.
But silence has made this matter worse.
3. please consider this most of all: if the Emperial authorities should now even go so far as to allow Akenak Icus to lead the next Assembly of the full Akenak in Pyr once again on Thermis 5th in the fourth cycle of 2572 (OOC: April 19th 2013), this might even more be viewed as an ratifying of Akenak Icus' disposition and alignment; his loathing of the Matis people and his contempt towards some features of us Zorai as well that have been made public.
If you let Akenak Icus speak for all of the Akenak at the next Assembly this will definitely be taken as your official approval of Icus' wishes about future relations of the Empire with other nations.
Silence might lead to serious conflicts.
4. An old Zorai-saying goes like this: "Silence can speak louder than words".
The latest developments of political events have already proved this. Did they not?
Please do not ignore the impact of your own silence any longer.
The consequences might get more and more severely.
At one point it might even be too late to make undone what silence has alreday set in motion.
Thank you for reading this. I bow to you in respect,
