Statement of the National Salvation Council on the Rebellion of the Jezebel-Swift Clique

The Arian Church of Reszelport Jezebel-Swift has declared its intention to march on Kirelesile in protest of attempts of the state to force it to moderate its activities and doctrine.

Though it is our responsibility to protect the integrity of the state, it is equally our responsibility to ensure peace and the safety of our citizens. To attack the forces of Jezebel-Swift would almost certainly lead to bloodshed and protracted civil war.

We have therefore chosen the path of peace. We will guarantee the Arian Church full independence in its operations, and near full-control over the German Territories, to which, as the Church has demanded, the city of Kirelesile will be attached. In order to prevent further confrontations, we have ordered the withdrawal of the Istkalenic military from all areas both west and south of Kirelesile.

This will be difficult for many Istkaleners to accept, we understand, but we see it as the only way forwards that preserves life and peace.
