This letter was recently sent to several cities surrounding Toronto.

To All Loyal Camarilla Kindred,

I propose the formation of a coterie of war, formed amongst the Kindred of Ontario who can mobilize as a common front to drive the Sabbat from Toronto.

First and foremost, I would like to invite those who, such as myself, have been titled 'crusader' for their defense of Erie to bring the struggle to what is currently the very heart of the Sabbat in our province.

Secondly, I would ask that all kindred who are experienced foes of the Sabbat join in to assist us to defeat them, particularly if you are knowledgeable of their strengths and weaknesses. In particular, I would exhort Marty Phelps, Ventrue Primogen of Oshawa, to involve himself in a struggle that he can wage in more concrete terms than the pall of suspicion that has gripped him in reaction to the growing threat.

Thirdly, I would enjoin all loyal, skilled warriors, and brave Tremere skilled in their distinctive arts, to add to our common front.

Last, but not least, I would ask that an Archon from the office of Justicar Tudor be on hand for the attempt, as a witness to the conditions that prevail in Toronto.

I do not propose to lead, but merely to organize a coterie that will meet and, with the benefit of suitable intelligence, eradicate what may remain of the Sabbat in the greater Toronto area and help ameliorate the current state of anarchy among those of them who are not slaves to the beast, paving the way for a newly enfieffed domain of Toronto.

The Sabbat have spread like a virulent moral cancer through Ontario, rocking Peterborough, briefly seizing Erie, and worming their way to who knows where else? They take our allies and loved ones from us via death, torture, or initiation into the mouth of the beast itself. I myself have lost someone I loved, and that loss has silenced my poet's voice - a petty complaint to some, but one of the things that kept me close to my human side.

They will pay.

William Torvald, Ventrue
5 times honoured, crusader of Erie.
