Together, as trainers and pokemon, we stand against what we believe to be utterly and morally wrong. We hold this belief to be instinctually understood – that we are all born with free will and a loose tongue to allow us to speak what we believe. We are born with minds and spirits that allow us to do as we please with our lives with minimal restrictions. Where has that world gone, though? This world has changed since Lux took control only a couple of years ago. It has changed from the world that we knew however long ago when we first started our pokemon journeys. Comparing then and now is like staring at night and day side by side. This world has changed, and not for the better. It’s been forced to shift into the ideals of Lux – in short, the rights we were born with as human beings have been taken away from us. It is as though they have sliced out our tongues and pulled our rights from our wills and our very being. Since humans first set foot in the Regions, they have largely governed themselves, using the unspoken folkways and mores of the society they established through time. A position of power greater than any one man was a Champion, and that Champion was charged with the duty of protecting their Region. Responsibility to accept such a task was not taken lightly, for few have been able to fully rise as such a Leader. With this Leader, those who lived in the Region still governed themselves. It is the Right of the People to alter or abolish a force that meets destructive and unjust powers, and to institute a new Power. Lux ignored this way life carried and established itself through the Indigo League, oppressing its power upon the citizens of the Pokémon world. The League claims to aim for superior order to ensure the security of the lives and stability of its people. Their violent actions against those that prefer to live the way they were brought up speak otherwise. Lux has forbidden its citizens from being outside as long as they may need or further please to be with the curfew enforced. In years past, our children and rising generation stayed out beneath the stars as long as they needed to accomplish their goals and utilize their full potential. The once-future Leaders of our Regions did not sleep in a house on some nights. Unless Lux grants reason for being outside after dark, its citizens are forced to quarter after sunfall. Lux carries the potential to remove any and all privacy from the life of its citizens. With the paranoia of Nox’s activities reaching even a civilian level, Lux has shown no restraint as far as hunting down Nox spies go. An innocent civilian may be suspected of having associations with Nox for no reason, and further watched without warrant. Lux has restricted the freedom of speech that has been exercised for as long as our tongues have existed. They restrict what is seen by the public eye – lying to the citizens that place so much trust in their tyrannical Government. They twist the truth of their actions so it is hidden from the public’s view as to maintain a positive standing in the eyes of their people. Further, Lux hesitates not to bring down anybody that speaks ill about them. Lux erected New Champions to replace those that split from the League for disagreeing. Champions that did not face the challenges the rightful ones previously did to attain their spot. They placed someone in charge as a figurehead to pull the strings on their Regions with no sense of what a true Champion should be and do. Lux built an army with their stand-in Champions as generals. Their forces of soldiers and sentinels answer to the Champions. Said sentinels commit atrocities in the name of what they see as the greater good – sometimes resulting in the death of countless innocents, something Lux preaches against. Lux assumes that the protection they offer their citizens is enough to calm a fearful heart. However, they interrupted a tradition that has been kept for decades, completely halting a rite of passage that nearly all children took when they were younger. Disallowing the carrying of, and even so far as interaction with Pokemon in their territories has upset something that was a way of life for us – a drastic shift in a social norm. Lux has abolished the rights we lived by for so long. Stripping us of our wills and intentions to halt for their own ideals, without listening to the voice we cry. This warrants them the ability to hand out undeserved and meaningless punishments to its citizens, and further allows deaths at their hand to be quieted. We, therefore, the Representatives of Nox, in Consensu and Unitate, appealing to the President of Lux for the rectitude of our intentions, do, in the Name, and by Authority of the good People of our Ranks, solemnly publish and declare, That this Faction is, and of Right ought to be Free and Rights-Restored. That we refined all self-power; that we have full Right and Will to levy War, conclude Peace and Equality, establish Free Will to be recognized thru actions, and to do all other Acts and Things which Free Citizens may of right do. – And for the support of this Avowal, with a firm belief on the protection of the Regions, we mutually pledge to each other our Lives, our Wills, and our sacred Freedom.[/style] |
