The Boralus Summit
[ Below is Elaianna’s pre-written speech for at the Summit this evening ]
“There have been many rumors spreading throughout not just Kul TIras, but the Alliance lands as well. There have been articles posted in the Royal Courier. There have been lies fed to not just the people of Kul Tiras, but those beyond. I am here to set the record straight.
Shortly after my return to Kul Tiras, after my official coming to Stormhollow, I received a missive from the Lord Stormsong. It was a demand for me to hand over the people of Stormhollow en masse for labor camps, for shipyards. To work in the deplorable conditions that far too many have now suffered through. Following my refusal to the Lord Stormsong's 'request', one of his Lord's, Umbert Highshoal, placed me under arrest for false charges to be rid of the one thing standing between the people and, to be blunt on the subject, slavery.
For the month that I was held in dungeon, the people of Stormhollow, and other lands within Stormsong Valley, were volunteered, and-or taken away by force to these labor camps to build ships for the Lord Stormsong. After Lord Stormsong's death, the Lord Highshoal took flight and ordered execution of those who would come after him.
Fortunately, the Proudmoore Admiralty stepped in and ordered a cease and desist on those actions.
Many people have been wronged. Many Kul Tirans have been hurt, or worse. There are still camps yet to be liberated, and a Lord that has turned his back on the good people of Kul Tiras.
I believe in a Kul Tiras that is FREE. A Kul Tiras that is prosperous. A Kul Tiras that can not!-- will not!-- be intimidated! A Kul Tiras that will not sit idle to slavery!
We are doing everything in our power, but it is not up to just us! I stand here today to encourage the people of Kul Tiras, and her allies, to stand up against this tyranny! To rally together to liberate the people of Kul Tiras still under the grasp of slavery. I urge you to not just consider the outside threats to the land that the Storm's Wake speak of, but of the threat within it. The threat of those still loyal to the deceased Lord Stormsong. To the threat of those that are still running these labor camps.”
