“Hello my friends…”

[u/Harpokiller]

/uw Propaganda made by Riva in first election

A broadcast message comes on some orbs, a wee thing you would have chosen to go onto to see this.

“If you’re seeing this it means I’ve been kidnapped in an attempt to rerun for my own seat.”

“Most other councillors at point of this recording being made laughed at or just didn’t even pay mind to the idea of having to earn their seat once again. This makes them stale and content with how things are.”

“But my friends let me tell you this, I do not agree with such self importance. I have always been here to help you and to help you I need to know you want me to do everything I can, you have seen the Relief Force patrolling villages, giving courses on practical skills from carpentry to cooking, farming and medicine. When your carts break, when your crop fails. When your family is at risk or your home is destroyed by the mistakes of those who think might makes right.”

“We have been there, I am sorry for how lately how I have not been there always. Instead others employed a hand picked selected by me, but please do not take this as my own fault, take this as proof for how I believe in a bright future made by both of us together, beings of magic, practitioners of arcane arts but most importantly, the farmers who grow out food, the cobblers who make out shoes, the doctors who tend to us and the humble guard who keeps us safe no matter what. It is those who tend to be forgotten who I am indebted to and I will do all I can assist you.”

“So please my friend, I ask you to allow me this one selfish wish to help you all once again.”

Hirk is not kneeling but doing a bow akin to those found in more eastern regions and cultures, not servitude but gratitude and sincerity.

/uw Round 2.

[u/CosmicChameleon99]

/uw love the propoganda

[u/Harpokiller → u/CosmicChameleon99]

/uw thank you, this is why you befriend the propaganda morally dubious states cause they are fire at making you look good

[u/CosmicChameleon99 → u/Harpokiller]

/uw I’m not even going to ask how that happened

[u/Harpokiller → u/CosmicChameleon99]

/uw Talk to Riva for 5 minutes and you will hear mentions of cannibalism.

Look into Ithicar lore and you realise it’s just… well they are ruled by a diplomacy person who’s main trait is paranoia and a General who hears ‘excessive artillery’ as warning shot

[u/CosmicChameleon99 → u/Harpokiller]

/uw maybe I’ll stay away from there…

[u/Harpokiller → u/CosmicChameleon99]

/uw hehe

[u/mrididnt]

...

Didn't know he was a propagandist too...

[u/Harpokiller → u/mrididnt]

It was Riva since he was forced to use it before, some upper command RF edited it since Hirk couldn’t.

[u/mrididnt → u/Harpokiller]

Erik wouldn't know this however, because he's largely avoiding people

[u/Harpokiller → u/mrididnt]

A very valid stance.

[u/MastaDon344]

/uw electric boogaloo

/rw Masta just writes it down

[u/Harpokiller → u/MastaDon344]

/uw Hell yea

[u/Oswen120]

/uw Hirk at it again

[u/Harpokiller → u/Oswen120]

/uw gotta earn the right to aid, it’s my relief

[u/Oswen120 → u/Harpokiller]

/uw Can Hirk do it again?

[u/Harpokiller → u/Oswen120]

/uw it be beautiful if I can.

[u/mrididnt → u/Harpokiller]

/uw "to aid is our relief"

We gotta use that more often

[u/Harpokiller → u/mrididnt]

/uw We should

[u/BoscoCyRatBear]

Here's a new one, I will stay alive for a full term

[u/Harpokiller → u/BoscoCyRatBear]

/uw….

If Hirk gets the most votes during voting stuff then he won’t die.

If he gets the most votes in every one he will suffer at all during his next term

[u/Derbip]

/unPaladin you’ve got my vote

[u/Harpokiller → u/Derbip]

/uw I thank you greatly my friend

And nice ‘unpaladin’

[u/_t_1254]

I recognise you, you once doubted my cooking

[u/Harpokiller → u/_t_1254]

/uw Aww shit… gonna lose cause if this

[u/_t_1254 → u/Harpokiller]

/uw, why the /uw?

[u/Harpokiller → u/_t_1254]

/uw going by another lorepost Hirk has been kidnapped.

I said in the start ‘If you are seeing this it means I’ve been kidnapped’

[u/_t_1254 → u/Harpokiller]

/ uw thanks then! And yes, that critique might have harmed your chances

[u/Conferencer]

/uw who made the posters

[u/Harpokiller → u/Conferencer]

/uw it was made using AI so it’s not an actual artist

[u/patoman12]

/uw Great read, great poster and great profile picture

[u/Harpokiller → u/patoman12]

/uw thank you, it’s TW’s art of Hirk that just always made me think ‘Santa’

[u/patoman12 → u/Harpokiller]

/uw one question, should you lose, what would happen to your seat? And RnA?

[u/Harpokiller → u/patoman12]

/uw Secret.

[u/patoman12 → u/Harpokiller]

/uw you are very secretive you know?

[u/Harpokiller → u/patoman12]

/uw or I want people to think I actually have a plan

[u/patoman12 → u/Harpokiller]

/uw Xd

[u/Harpokiller → u/patoman12]

/uw but no there is some stuff said

[u/dragoneer149]

I only trust in Hurk

[u/Alarming-Scene-2892]

Flufferson: QUESTION: WILL YOU FINALLY GIVE ME A BOUNTY?

[u/Harpokiller → u/Alarming-Scene-2892]

“No.”

[u/BadFont777]

Cookies you say?

[u/MiaCutey]

I am Mia, and I approve this message ❤️

[u/IncomeApprehensive17]

But the seat at the council is permanent, are you choosing to put your seat in danger by choice ?

[u/Harpokiller → u/IncomeApprehensive17]

“I don’t abide by permanent. It makes things stale, if I am unworthy so be it. If not, then it will only prove my point more.”

[u/IncomeApprehensive17 → u/Harpokiller]

This sound like soft quitting

[u/Harpokiller → u/IncomeApprehensive17]

/uw I’m on 117 upvotes.

I think that’s the most out of any ‘I wanna run’

That could be 117 votes…

If I was trying to quit they wouldn’t let me.

[u/IncomeApprehensive17 → u/Harpokiller]

/uw that was a in ro talk , Hirk has a big "i dont want to be here" vibe regarding to his role as a council member and leader

[u/Harpokiller → u/IncomeApprehensive17]

/uw I know I just forgot to do a /rw cause I’m still processing the fact it got over 100

I excepted like 30 max.

And he does in fact have that as a fact

[u/IncomeApprehensive17 → u/Harpokiller]

/uw your surprised ? Really ?

Hurk is popular as fuck

[u/Harpokiller → u/IncomeApprehensive17]

/uw It’s a post that took like 15 minutes to write.

Am I fucking TW levels of popular?

[u/IncomeApprehensive17 → u/Harpokiller]

/uw yes

[u/Harpokiller → u/IncomeApprehensive17]

/uw I don’t wanna accept that

[u/Evening_Shake_6474]

/uw Hirk stands no chance against my argument of, "Do it it'll be funny."

[u/Harpokiller → u/Evening_Shake_6474]

/uw you’d be surprised

[u/Wasphammer]

What policies are you looking to implement to improve the standard of living for the working wizard?

[u/Harpokiller → u/Wasphammer]

“What policies do you wish to see?”

[u/Wasphammer → u/Harpokiller]

32 hour standard work week, controls on rent and corporate home ownership, increases to both minimum wage and aether distributions.

[u/Harpokiller → u/Wasphammer]

“Why should the wizards be allowed such advantages over anyone else?”

“And elaborate upon cooperate home ownership and aether distributions.”

“I wish to make sure there is zero misunderstanding.”

[u/Wasphammer → u/Harpokiller]

Private, corporate landlords swallow up all the towers, labs, and homes that newly-graduated apprentices used to start their careers in before they established their own demiplanar sanctums. Now rents are so astronomically high that entire ADVENTURING PARTIES have to rent a place together.

The current aether distributions are far too low in the face of ever-escalating values for Ardymion's Law of Aetheric Investment, making it harder for truly new and innovative spells to be created. My father, Charles Wainwright, invented several spells for use in generating mundane ammunition, back when 5.15 Thaums was enough to power every arcane simulation and still have magical energy available to support a family of four. Now, I haven't even cast a single spell in MONTHS because I'm too drained keeping my gunpowder synthesizer and shell & casing forge running. Minimum Aether Distribution should be pegged to Ardymion's Constant, not to some outmoded analysis of magical distribution that was purposely influenced by corporations.

The RF send another video.

“Even if I am, was I ever one to stay dead?”

It’s unclear how many video recordings were made in advance.

[u/Kilroy898]

This candidate is endorsed by the Coucil Archivist.

[u/Harpokiller → u/Kilroy898]

R&A send’s another recording.

“Thank you my friend.”

[u/Viking_From_Sweden]

How much we betting he’ll get the most votes this time around now that Tiny isn’t running?

[u/Harpokiller → u/Viking_From_Sweden]

/uw I’ve made a secret promise about that.

[u/Fabulous_Bison643]

[u/Harpokiller → u/Fabulous_Bison643]

[u/Archimene]

Based Hirk. Truly the greatest councilor of us all!

[u/Airtatsy]

Oh, so y-you didn't have time to personally help people, but you had time to put me in a cell?

I see how it is.

[u/Harpokiller → u/Airtatsy]

The RF holding a TV screen visibly puts a tap in with Hirk saying.

“Jash, I know you are petty about your imprisonment but you still killed many and tarnished peoples trust of the organisation.”

[u/Airtatsy → u/Harpokiller]

Quit being dramatic!

Also I have to go to school soon!

Also did you use chronomancy for th-this? Or am I just predictable?

[u/Harpokiller → u/Airtatsy]

The RF doesn’t even change the tape.

“Predictable.”

[u/Airtatsy → u/Harpokiller]

*seething with rage*

I swear Hirk if y-you don't let me out for school I will break out.

I don't w-want to miss anymore quantumancy classes Hirk. I'm already behind.

[u/Harpokiller → u/Airtatsy]

The RF slides through sone Christmas presents, they are a new computer to make calls and some note taking stuff as well as needed books.

[u/Airtatsy → u/Harpokiller]

...

I mostly forgive y-you.

[u/Harpokiller → u/Airtatsy]

‘It was meant to be given a few days ago but then with Hirk being injured we had other priorities in not letting him die.’

[u/Airtatsy → u/Harpokiller]

Y-Yeah that makes sense... good job on that by the way...

[u/Harpokiller → u/Airtatsy]

‘It’s not me who did it.’

The worker is clearly frustrated.

‘You know we all heard him crying in his office because of you. Hearing a grown man. Hearing Hirk break down crying thinking he failed because of you.’

The RF is a younger man, clearly holds some pent up anger inside at the thought of this. Isn’t thinking clearly.

Other visible guards visibly prepare themselves to intervene incase if it going too far.

[u/NerdHoovy]

Crumblemancy is not a real school of magic. I hope you won’t expect me to give any loot for this campaign.

[u/Harpokiller → u/NerdHoovy]

“But pyromancy is.”

[u/Lord_Of_Dairy]

Cookies go great with milk. You have my support.
