well since you insist...
- there's only two lines in the prophecy that refer to violence, "each will destroy the other, if they can", and "for when they clash, only one will leave". the latter has two interpretations, and one is non-violent.
- Sallana is not associated with fighting or violence in any way, shape, or form. she's the goddess of love. the concept of her going to literal, swords-and-shields, actual war with anyone is plainly ridiculous
- Vermella's whole code involves not striking first. while she (unlike Sallana) is a warrior, she's not going to tell her followers to go spill Sallana follower blood utterly unprovoked.
- most of Vermella's followers are pacifists? most of Sallana's followers don't bother carrying weapons?
as @
Moochick so kindly pointed out to me, it's highly likely this "religious war" is not going to be played out conventionally. as in, killing people conventionally.
and for the record? I quite frankly do not care about "historical accuracy" regarding cruel and unusual violence in medieval fantasy. there are literally infinitely better ways to properly portray the culture of the times than immediately jumping to all the terrible things that happened.
and with regards to this server specifically, we're already in the realm of
science fiction. or did everyone forget that glowstone is an advanced piece of technology from a ruined, post-apocalyptic earth, and that the Crossroads inn is using it to light their main hall? did everyone collectively forget that Queen Grief was the guardian of the aforementioned post-apocalyptic earth? did everyone forget that we were literally hopping universes to evade the corruption at one point (or three)?
there's only one reason Alterans don't have spaceships by now, and thats because the grand architects of Altera left copper out of the equation, forcing the inhabitants to only be able to advance their knowledge of technology so far. we have a robot, and we have a barbarian tribe spouting progressive modern ideals. we literally have a god whose whole thing is fighting tyranny.
if you're going to argue about someone trying to tone down the violence because it's not "historically accurate" then I don't know what to tell you.
