The Betrayal of India
My fellow Indians, we have been decieved. The one that rules the Mughal Empire, the Rao Raja Singh of Marwar, has betrayed us. We were told specifically that he had NO ability to conquer India, yet what has happened recently? He has influence, bribed, and blundered his way to vassalizing the Raja of Jaislamer. His word is BROKEN! His lies are EXPOSED! I had accused him of planning such acts, yet the words of the serpent spoke words of honey that could not be denied. I had proposed the forgivness of this fiend, and allowed the same evil that desired a conquered India to be brought into our midst. For this reason, and the fact that the League's laws respecting sovereignity of each individual Indian state from this petty land grabbing have also been broken, we call each and every true, faithful, and just Indian state forth to show these liars that they cannot control India and decieve us no longer for we all see the truth now! Rao Raja Singh did not conquer the Mughals through love, he adopted their ways in exchange for his honor, integrity, and loyalty to the cause of the League to prevent India from becoming one state that respects not the rights of others to independence. Let not the serpents words come forth here and sway you as it once did I, for no matter the justification of their actions, it is the same action taken by the slaughtering Timurids, their corrupt Mughal descendants, and now taken by the treacherous Marwarian Mughal Empire. Onward my brothers! For India! For the League! For your families, and for all of our indepedence! Let it be said that we desired to fight on our feet, rather than serve on our knees!

Rao Raja Singh: I see the Sultan has not changed. This kind of farse should have been expected, yet I believed he had finally come to his senses. I am being accused of bribing, and what not in order to gain control over the Rajya of Jaisalmer. Little does the Sultan know, but I, knowing that Jaisalmer had access to the rest of India, but wishing to help a fellow Indian further, I had offered them trade pacts concerning the Mughal Empire. Of course, at first, it seems as if I have taken control of the nation, yet I am merely the economical advisor of the Raja of Jaisalmer, nothing more, nothing less. For some, this might seem as I have been favouring some over others, but this was merely to see how it would progress. Knowing that me attempting to open the borders of the Mughal Empire and India would be seen as a betrayal, I decided to take it slow and gain the trust of one nation at the time. Yet the Sultan, as his ancestors did used any chance he had to sacrifice Indian lives for nothing. I see no proof that anyone is being opressed, yet my borders are being covered in blood because the Sultan has decided so. Before this blood bath carries on, I wish for a fair "trial" if you wish.

Sultan Illyas-Bhāṛāṭē-naiki: The reason it seems as if you have taken control of the nation, is because you have. Instituting your rule over a nation, making it act in a manor that you desire, and not letting it individually act on its own constitutes control of a nation. You are no mere economic advisor, you are a conspiring traitor. I have no problem with trade pacts, but I do have concerns over the loss of an League nations sovereignity to another League nation. The betrayal of one by their brother is an inconcievable act somehow rendered justifiable by yourself. The borders of the Mughal Empire were open to India, after your falsely written message proclaiming the apparent change in the Empire, and declaring, and I quote "we CANNOT control India". Reading these serpentine words, you were able to get all of India to believe that the Mughal Empire has changed with an Indian at its head. All of this, however, was found to be constructed lies when you violated League law by violating the sovereignity of a fellow League nation. Not only was this a heinous act to begin with, but to be carried out by one we called a brother makes it all the more wicked. Gaining the trust of one nation at a time? You mean the same process that your ancestors, the Timurids carried out to force Multan, Kashmir, Ladakh, Kangra, Jangladesh, and Sind into serving that malevolent empire that then, taking advantage of this this "trust", annexed them and killed those that fought for sovereignity? Enough of these same actions, they have spoke louder than your words for they have herald that you cannot learn that past mistakes should never be repeated. My ancestors sacrificed lives for nothing? Your own nation would not exist to violate your brothers sovereignity if it was not for my ancestors war against the Mughals. This League which has benefitted India so greatly would not exist if not for my ancestors. India would've perished under foreign blades if not for my ancestors. Your belief that this League, that sovereignity, that India controlled by Indians is "nothing" is precisely the reason why you have found yourself in this situation and have failed to understand that India will not tolerate subjugation. By dictating the actions of the Raja of Jaisalmer, you have oppressed the people of Jaisalmer from their rightful, independent ruler. By dictating the policies of Jaisalmer, you have oppressed the interests of the people of Jaisalmer. Your borders are covered in blood for these reasons, for lying to India, and for failing to understand the right of Jaisalmer to sovereignly rule itself. Your fair trial has been conducted by the League members below. This will be the last time the Mughals attempt to impose their will upon a sovereignly independent India, and the last time we have to fight the Mughals for that right, for India stands united to finish what it started decades ago, and institute true sovereignity to the Mughal Empire.

Rao Raja Singh: Do you truly wish to know how many nations the Mughal Empire has bribed and influenced and what ever you accuse it for? Not a single one. Not only that, but Emperor Babur's first resolution was the renewal of trade pacts and friendlier relations with the bordering Indian nations. From what it seems, you have been remembering the sins of the Timurids and projecting them onto the Mughal Empire and now onto both the Marwari-Mughali union. And now, when the nation of Jaisalmer and the Union have had their relations improved because of geopolitical reasons, it's still the only nation in 58 years of the existence of the Mughal Empire that might and a big might, have its sovereignity threatened. I'm not sure what the exact trigger was that led your predecessors to call upon all of India to sacrifice the lives of its people, It might have been the fact that your predecessor felt threatened once the Mughal Empire came so close to him but I'm not going to go into that. Let's just list the "atrocities" the Mughali Emperors have done over the years. Babur began improving relations with Indian nations in order to differentiate himself from the Timurid Emperors, primarily Amjad the Mad. Mirza the Lawmaker has during his rule made the Mughal Empire a land of equals with his numerous new laws. And let's see what I did, ah yes, instead of doing it the Bengali way and bribe the leaders to do their bidding, which would allow me to have a say in the Jaisalmer governing and Jaisalmer to profit. I do not know how the Bengali mentality functions, nor am I willing to find out, but it seems that you simply cannot stop mentioning "ancestors". You blame the Mughals for what the Timurids did and you say your ancestors have sacrificed your lives. I don't recall Sultan-i Salais (I or II) dying during battle against the Mughal Empire. No, he sacrificed the life of others to achieve his cause. And perhaps you don't know this, but since Mirza was in Marwar at the time of the war, any attempts of military leaders to counter-attack Marwar were reconsidered in order to keep the young Mirza safe. I do not know which kind of beasts are possessing the leaders of the Indian nations to do your bidding, but I must tell you, all your accussations are only here to do the same thing as your ancestors. Send Indians to battle while the Bengali sit and enjoy the show.

Sultan Illyas-Bhāṛāṭē-naiki: I do hope that to take utter control of Jaisalmer, Jaunpur and Bahamani you influenced them, lest it make your previous rule over Jaunpur and Bahamani far less legitamate than it already was, and your current rule over Jaisalmer all the more treacherous. "Might be threatened"? The loss of the ability to determine their own course, the loss of their ability to project their interests, and the loss of their rightful ruler to rule without having to heed the commands of a traitor "Might" threaten their sovereignity? I, Illyas-Bhāṛāṭē-naiki, has and will never be against two nations improving their relations. However, you, your ancestors (I will continue to mention your ancestors as long as you continue to mention my own), and your predecessors do not do it for the sake of relation improvement. The Timurids did it to control Multan, Kashmir, Ladakh, Kangra, Jangladesh, and Sind. The Mughals under Babur did it to attempt to control '''Gwalior, Dhundha, Jaisalmer, Kathiawar. '''The Mughals under you have done it to take Jaisalmer, and who knows what else. The reason that today, Gwalior, Dhundha, and Kathiawar are not under your rule is because of Bengali action to counter Mughali plans of domination and subjugation, the reason that Jaisalmer will be free, is again, because of Bengali action. "Bengali way and bribe the leaders to do their bidding". Have you truly been unable to counter my arguments and instead decided to simply copy what I have exposed of you? At least attempt to use your own words against me, not my words against you, corrupted and pushed against myself by tyrants. "Atrocities", such as disgarding the sovereignity of each individual Indian nation is the second greatest crime anyone of your location has accomplished, second only to the massacre's of Delhi and Vijaynagar. I am truly sorry that my father and grandfather could not die in battle so that your plans could succede, because you don't understand it do you? One man cannot stop a nation of tyrants, no, like the meaning behind the Indian League, it takes an army of people, united, not alone, to topple tyrants that seek the domination and subjugation of their neighbors. I am also truly sorry that Mirza couldn't handle his "tolerant" Empire that sought to describe the differences between Hindus and Muslims at every turn while the Bengali Sultanate could only describe them as what they were, people, rather than religion, and then had to flee his throne for something he could handle. Perhaps you don't know this, but the only reason Mirza gained the Mughal's throne, and agreed to let Babur keep him as an heir, was because my grandfather truly believed that if an Indian was in control of the Mughal Empire, all war would cease and peace would envelope India for centuries. However, as we have seen, it does not matter who controls the Mughal Empire, it always devolves into its same tricks and schemes to control India, showing the League that the Mughal Empire must be removed if it is to be safe for it cannot even rely on an Indian to respect League laws. Now you dare to call the leaders of the League nations that respect the sovereignity of Jaisalmer and detest your goals of subjugation "Beasts"? Have you no restraint, no shame, and no honor and must bring yourself to insult ALL of India? "Send Indians to battle while the Bengali sit and enjoy the show." Now you cannot even bring yourself to regard the Bengali as Indians? At least I have enough respect to regard you as an Indian, despite you also being a traitor, a liar, and a tyrant. Finally, perhaps your tone will change when the first Indian army to hand you defeat is Bengali. Prepare for justice.

Rao Raja Singh: You see, I said your ancestors as those whom you share blood with. Of course, I do share ancestry with Mirza through our mother, but neither Babur was related to me, nor was Aryan, Draka, Amjad or Timur himself. And you still seem to wish to lie, as the Mughali under Babur merely attempted to trade with the four nations. To say I copied what you "exposed" I have done? Of course, because sending "gifts" to the Jaunpur council members or the Bahmani ruler shouldn't be considered a bribe. As for insulting my half-brother, not every man is fit to rule, and although Mirza was in his prime a good leader, he had private issues which would have interfered with his judgement. And for your information, one of the first laws Mirza had made was the law of religious tolerance. And let me explain why I said that the Bengali sit while the Indians battle. It is because, I am informed about the census reports of yours. (You describe your main ethnicity as Bengali, not Bengali Indians, but Bengali) It seems that you don't consider yourself Indian, so why should I? And the beasts I speak about are quite known. Those nasty little bats, alien to our regions. You must hear the stories about how they fly in from space and seem to control the mind of the people who fall victim to their attack.

Sultan Illyas-Bhāṛāṭē-naiki: I speak of ancestors as they are described in Bengali law "Any person from whom an estate is inherited", that way a lady may claim her husbands family as ancestors, and create a more fluid social system that can rely on both blood relation and inheritance, explaining why I tend to refer to yourself as having the Timurids and Babur as ancestors because you have inherited their estates and Empire. Again, I am not against relation building, but for over one-hundred years, your ancestors, the Timurids, and the Mughal Emire, have sought to subjugate India through "gifts" that turn out to be nothing more than bribes that ended up putting them in control of, and violating the sovereignity of, Indian nations. I speak of Indians as one large group of people with different cultures, beliefs, and ethnicities. There can be Bengali Indians are but one of many different type of Indians. If you cannot accept that there can be differences, then your ideas of tolerance are for nothing. Remember this League law that Marwar signed? "stop petty feuds from destroying the unity of the Indian peoples." You have failed to realize that your feud with the sovereignity of India will destroy the unity of the League by creating one large tyrant state, subjugating all of India, rather than individual sovereign states. I will not grace your mad comment on aliens and bats with a reply.
