Event: Figureheads Week 2 - Poetry

Specifics

Unity is a concept that is hard to stick to in the days of the schism between Arconae and Quaestor. Some have thought the use propaganda to band the people together behind their chosen path. One of these ways is with stirring verse, filling the heart with patriotism and fire to fight. You've been commissioned to write this. Write a piece of poetry to encourage unity behind your side.

I call this piece "Remember." It is meant to remind us of the sacrifices the Arconae have made in the past, most notably those of Sashar and Zandro Arconae.

Attached is my poetry entry in graphical format. The transcribed version is as followed.

Textual submission: Quiet the rebellious, silence the riotous.
Uneasy are these times.
Arguments progressed to violence are trying our Clan.
Establishmentarians, rally to our banner.
Safety through solitude, support, and sanity.
Triumphs await against our delusional mates.
Obstinate they may be,
Resistant they may be,
Superior we are, victorious we will be!

**In Arcona, We Follow**

Promises of power
Lies of success
Leading us astray
Leaving us weak

Under their reign
Weak we have become
But we will not run
For following them brings only pain

The Quaestors must pay
We will dig their early grave
Stand tall this day
Their influence will fade

Take their power
Dismantle their troops
They will cower
Reclaim and retake

We will win
Arcona will be strong again
Forever to rule
Arconae Invicta
