`"I see that seems to be the case, now on to the topic at hand. If your kingdom has everyone full 100% of your population in your kingdom supports and loves the king with not even the smallest of fractional numbers that resent the king or the ruling faction, can you really say everyone is leaving in freedom and peace? No matter how prosperous a nation every nation has those rebellious people to say otherwise that it is a utopia would be insanity, it would set the stage for us to perceive that some veil is over the eyes of the people explain to us why or how a king can be loved as an absolute ruler."`

"I understand your concern as one may mistake that my lord is a tyrant to his people. You see, the utopia you speak of is my lord's goal and he achieved it. Much like Ebbfell's situation in the old world, demons and beings born of darkness were hunted down and murdered simply because they exist. And so, they came to the Abyssal Empire to find refuge and Lord Vylius of course granted them as such. You see the Abyssal Empire at first was purely military. The only thing that existed was Lord Vylius and the demons he created. However over time dark beings from all over the world flicked underneath the protection of Lord Vylius's shadowy wings. Soon, these refugees built a town and it eventually grew into a thriving city which we did not foresee happening. There is no veil of control over the population. The Abyssal Empire became the utopia that Lord Vylius had always strived to achieve. However, it seems that is gone. We won the war against the light, and now I find myself back here even though I've been apparently dead for 500 years."

`"So he created the demons that rests in his empire if I create a golem and make it sentient it would of course be loyal to me, have no complaints no matter what I do or how I rule over it. So wouldn't you say that he rules over a kingdom of slaves? Or shall I make a golem and give it a soul to demonstrate? We know not of how you are back from the dead, necromancy has been outlawed but it could be a possibility. Tell us about your lords tendrils, he uses them to change people no? He brought back from the dead Okia one of our citizen's, he was completely deformed and served vylius blindly when he was originally loyal to ebbfell no one's allegiance just changes at the snap of a finger."`
Walter
"Golems are a entirely different matter entirely. Do you think that you all would be born if the demons Vylius created didn't have sentience? What do you think happened to us once the war was over and we were no longer bound by it? You are living proof of what happened we prospered as equal beings underneath Lord Vylius. The tendrils that are depicted in your records is somewhat accurate but not entirely. The tendrils only affect light beings, that have been blinded by their obedience to their gods. If they were to strike a dark being it would be no different than a sword impaling them. While they still can do that to light beings, Lord Vylius would rather have them be free of their blindness rather than die in ignorance. But, war has its consequences and not everyone's eyes were open. Okia fought on the side of the light beings and engaged demons in combat resulting in their deaths. While Lord Vylius did not intend to kill Okia directly, Okia was in the enemy's capital when my Lord obliterated it in a single explosion. He then used the corpses left behind in the wake of the explosion through necromancy and Okia just happened to be one of them. While necromancy is banned here, Lord Vylius used the magic during war and outside of Ebbfell."

`"We we're not created from vylius offspring, they are many in ebbfell that have intermingled and they may have not been born if what you say is true but it is easy to have a population that is brainwashed and still have freedom, as long as there loyal to the king, so these tendrils only affect light beings? What is classified as a light being? Someone that uses holy magic? Who is vylius to decide the fate of others? Even so if the person or nation has this 'ignorance' your lord forcibly attacks, invades impales or slaughters all who oppose him to free them from this said ignorance? Is it not the same of invading a nation and freeing them from there bodies so they can achieve a higher being? Because they are ignorant to think that living is the path and the other thinks that the afterlife is true salvation."`
Walter
"As I stated, it was during war time. Lord Vylius kept to himself until the light beings attacked us. A light being is one who uses holy magic to hunt down dark beings simply because they existed. You are not direct offspring, however there were no demons until we came to your shores. You are all a by product of our alliance. And do as the ambassador of Lord Vylius tell you of your place? No, you have established a stable government system which I am glad for. Your people have a come a long way. Lord Vylius does not decide fate, it was the fate of the light beings who attacked us who decided that. If you were invaded, wouldn't you do the same to win?"
