"Sector-wide Crackdown on Vianism Spreads to Lorrd"
"Lorrd has become the latest theater of a Sector-wide crackdown on the Vianist religion as Lord Bowe of the Frezen Province has ordered the persecution of the large Vianist minority there. Though the crackdown on Lorrdian Vianists has so far lacked the genocidal character of the anti-Vianist campaign on the nearby planet Sipsk, Lord Bowe's security forces have nonetheless evicted at rifle-point Vianist demonstrators from public places and, in some cases, from the once-inviolable privacy of their own homes.
In a dramatic gesture, the Lord's forces have also set fire to all Vianist buildings of worship in the Frezen Province. As many as 10 are believed dead in the fires, lighted without regard for who might be inside the buildings at the time. As many or more people are reported to have been shot resisting eviction in the city of Frezen, and three times as many people are believed to be languishing in the dungeon of Lord Bowe's heavily-fortified castle.
While there has been some talk of resisting Lord Bowe's anti-Vianist decree, it is well-known that the crackdown on Vianists enjoys the support of Moff Shirnoq, rumored to be directing the apparent genocide of Vianists on Sip'skud, where the followers of that assailed religion have been burned to death by the tens of thousands. Resistance to Lord Bowe's decree, if any, has been tempered thus far by the widely-held feeling that 'it could be worse.'"
Jareth Bowe
Lord of the Frezen Province
