Do we think conscription will be brought back if they continue not being able to find people desperate enough to join? I think it’s disgusting recruiters are allowed near and in public schools.
The people of the village gathered in the town square, a murmur of worried voices rising. Since the warlocks of the Great Mountain had stopped providing magical aid and blessings, the townspeople’s lives had gotten steadily worse. Crops were failing, diseases spreading, monsters encroaching from the hills.
“We cannot rely on the mountain warlocks’ charity any longer!” shouted Tana, an elder witch of the village. “For too long their magical bounty has come with steep prices - our sovereignty, our resources, our dignity. No more!”
The crowd cheered, magic crackling in the air from their hands.
“The warlocks hoard arcane knowledge that is our birthright!” Tana continued. “They control the weave of magic itself, keeping the power only for themselves. But united, our collective inner light can break their monopoly!”
Tana raised her hands, the air swirling with crimson tendrils of magic. Other witches and wizards followed suit, channeling their cosmic energies. The square glowed with a kaleidoscope of supernatural might.
“With our magic combined, we will reweave the enchantments of the world into a fairer pattern!” Tana proclaimed. “Where all beings share in magical abundance, not just the warlocks in their gilded mountain towers. No longer will they decide who gets blessings and who gets curses. The mystical threads of fate will be ours to collectively shape, for the good of all!”
The villagers cheered, joining their magic into brilliant bindings of solidarity and change. Together their spellcraft shook the foundations of the warlocks’ ancient order. A new age was dawning.
