Citizens of Minoc,
We have a long history of caring for the poor, going back hundreds of years, since almost the time of the founding of the city of Minoc itself. Though we may understand the desperate travails of the poor unfortunates who live on the outskirts of our fine city in the neighborhood known to locals as, "Barter Town," we must not condone their brazen thefts.
Yes, everybody deserves shelter and sustenance, and we can help each other so that none may go without. This is what Minoc has been known for since Lord British first brought his Virtues to Britannia, when our citizens were first recognized for their Sacrifice in helping their neighbors, especially those less fortunate, and Minoc was named the City of Sacrifice.
However, we were first known for our hard work and industriousness. The hardworking people of Minoc are generous indeed, but it is only through the fruits of our hard labor that we are able to support our hungry and poor.
As for mineself, there are those among ye who have witnessed my personal rise from a mere vagabond minstrel to become a prosperous local business owner. When I first settled in Minoc, in my small, rustic, stone hut near the Minoc Moongate and I began to work to sell my wares, it was the people of Minoc who helped to make me successful. Despite early attempts by the organized criminal element to drive my business under, I prevailed, in no small part due to your support of my small shop. So, for those of you who have invested in my success, I thank thee! Not only for your good business in the past, but now also for your faith in selecting me as your new governor, that I may lead Minoc to even more prosperous days.
Thank you all for your generous support.
Although I cannot promise clear skies and fair winds always, I foretell that there is no problem facing Minoc that cannot be overcome through hard work and our dedication to each other and our Virtue. Though the thieves afflicting our town may continue to plague us for the immediate future, our Virtue will ultimately prevail over their greed.
