A Letter from Prince Gregor to King Knob
Dear King Knob,
We understand that you want to protect the unicorn and
Pegasus populations, which is a noble endeavor. However, the measures you are
taking to achieve this goal have gone too far and are taking a toll on both the
ecosystem and your people.
For example, in your Unicorn and Pegasus Protection Act,
there is a law stating that unicorns and Pegasus must be protected from
their natural predators at all cost, and allows people to kill predators of the
unicorns and Pegasus at the slightest hint that they will attack the unicorns
and Pegasus. While this law has helped in increasing the unicorn and Pegasus
populations, this same law has caused coyote, wolf, and winged cougar
populations to hit an all-time low to the point where these animals are now
threatened with extinction.
Furthermore, by disrupting the food chain, the unicorn and
Pegasus populations have skyrocketed much too high. Because of the increase in Pegasus
and unicorns, more Pegasus and unicorns have been eating our crops. As you are
well aware, those crops are what we need to survive. The farmers have tried to
keep the unicorns and Pegasus away by peaceful means, such as setting up scarecrows and scaring them away with loud noises. These tactics did work for a
time. However, once the unicorns and Pegasus realized that the farmers would
not harm them, they ignored their peaceful tactics completely and continued to
devour their corn and wheat.
The farmers of these crops would be glad to protect their
crops from the unicorns and Pegasus by using bows and arrows, if it were not
for the first law in the UPP Act stating that no one is to hurt or kill any
unicorns or Pegasus under any circumstance, otherwise they will be imprisoned
or sent to the guillotine. If all the crops are devoured by these creatures,
then we will no doubt starve to death.
Again, we understand your concern for the unicorn and Pegasus
populations, but if our people are to survive and if the circle of life is to
remain stable, then the UPP Act must be revised. People must be ordered to
leave the natural predators of the unicorns and Pegasus alone, and farmers must
be allowed to protect their crops by force if it is necessary. If changes are
not made, then I am afraid we will have no choice but to secede from the Om
Nomia Kingdom.
We hope that you take our concerns and our possible
solutions into consideration.
Best Regards,
Prince Gregor of Ivory Province
