Mog Election Activities
-
_:: dark-cowled robed men with shaved heads move in the darker circles of the big city, discussing the Legionnaire's candidacy. They point to the Legion's aggressive recruiting tactics, which seem to discount intelligence entirely, and their self-righteous use of brute force to stamp out anything they deem unlawful. The men move quietly, and quickly, and speak only to those involved in underground dealings. Beyond political concerns, they also carefully seek remnants of the long-silent Blood Spiders. ::
:: A man in a heavy red and black-dyed breastplate strides through the southern main gates, flanked by toughs in the livery of Norwick. The grim, red-skinned cleric bears openly the insignia of Norwick's town chancelor and his path leads him directly to the offices of the city magistrate. As he passes one of the Legionnaires he pauses briefly, his visage passive and expressionless, as both his bodyguards take small copper pins and attach them to their leather jerkins. During the man's meeting with the city's administration his guards can be seen drinking in a nearby tavern, openly stating that they think the chancellor's support probably coincides with their own. "Ye wouldn't think it by der preachin' ways", one was heard shouting loudly, "but da God o' Slaughter be behind the Legion! Ain't no one spillin' more blood!"_

Early in the day and late after the work day Mog is seen about the commerce area and near the Lucky Ferret giving a small speech dressed in blacksmith clothing.
Citizens of Peltarch Mog come before citizens as one of the people. Mog think too long Peltarch been run by people with fancy words, cheap magicky tricks, or gold coming out of pockets. Mog no have any of these things. Mog worked all Mog life with Mog hands to get where Mog is. Mog is a veteran soldier, master craftsman, trader, and most importantly Peltarch citizen. Mog knows what it is like to suffer, not have enough food, sleeping under the cold sky, and no coins to spend. Mog knows what it like to live everyday fearing for Mog life.
::looks across the audience meeting their gaze::
Mog know citizens know this feeling. The feeling deep in pit of Mog stomach that make Mog want curl up and die. Mog started in this world with nothing but clothes on Mog back. No family, no home. Nothing. Mog
was alone in the world hated and thrown out wherever Mog went. But Mog no gave up, Mog worked fingers to the bone. No one gave Mog a free ride. No silver spoon. Each and everyday citizen of Peltarch go thru this. But Mog wonder who looking out for citizens? People that make Peltarch strong are left alone in the dark.::puts his head down for a moment then slowly raises it to face the crowd::
Mog come here simple man like all of citizens. Like Fisher King, Mog here to do a job then Mog will let others take control. Mog just want let citizens have chance to get what citizens need. Food in bellies, roof over head, coins in pouch, to feel secure, and diginity. Yes, Mog want every citizen be able lift head in pride.
Now Mog know many others over years have made promises to citizens. Them say them going to make lives better. Them give big promises that never come true. Mog make promises to citizens too but Mog going to keep Mog's, Mog even going to keep Mog's promises even if Peltarch no want Mog senator. Mog has already committed Legion troops to help Defenders and Gaurds fight the Eastlanders. The same Legion troops that gave lives to free Peltarch from Koreth grasp are now fighting and dying to keep the roads safe for citizens. Dying so citizens can feel safe here in Peltarch. Them fighting so less Peltarch soldiers will die and so land can be free for travel. Mog know every soldier that dies leave a hole in someone family. Mog sure all citizens here know someone that died in service to Peltarch. A smiling face them never see again. How many be alive today if them had more help? Better gear? Better training? Mog know Peltarch soldiers better than most, but what else could of been done to keep them alive?
Mog working with them to bring better gear to soldiers. Bringing Legion soldiers to the Nars Pass to make sure as few die as possible. Them working together will make Peltarch soldiers better, stronger. Meaning citizens be safer and be soldiers coming home and less memories of them.
::watches the faces of the audience::
Even know Mog using Mog influence in Union to bring goods to Peltarch. Food, raw materials, and finest crafted gear in all of Narfell waiting to be delivered to Peltarch as soon as Peltarch says it ok. And Mog not going to sell to one group, Mog asking several groups to buy goods so then there better chances of citizens getting goods.
::nods to the crafters and tradesmen in the crowd::
The crafters and tradesmen will have cheaper resources to sell and use. Merchants will have easy source of goods to line shelves. This means Merchants will have more goods left over to increase trade. Merchants will hire more people to work for them. Docks will be busier and then can be expanded. When Mog wagons come to Peltarch, every citizen will see the benefit. No longer will citizens have to eat turnip soup but be able to get nice chunck of venison. No longer will citizens freeze at night. Wood will be on way as well as finest winter wolf pelts in land.
::smiles at the crowd::
Mog want every citizen vote, not for Mog but for citizens.
Now, Mog know lots citizens belong to this guild or that. Mog not asking citizen vote against guild wishes, but if citizens agree with Mog. Mog ask citizens ask citizen guild leader come talk to Mog. Mog will listen and work with guilds.
When guild ask why vote for Mog answer simple. Mog the only candidate that have not only military experience to make citizens safe, but also have the trading skills needed as well as the resources already in place to make promises happen. Peltarch need senator that will do more and talk less.
This make the ideal candidate. Soldier, trader, craftsman, and most important Mog a Peltarchian.

Across town various bards are singing a new song and retelling stories from the civil war. Those questioned on the new song say it goes something like this:
((To be sung to the tune of “Help!” by the Beatles))
