This we know: All things are connected like the blood that unites us. We did not weave the web of life; we are merely a strand in it. Whatever we do to the web, we do to ourselves.
--Chief Seattle
Added to the web of life, I would like to properly announce Malleus Maleficarum. We are a predominantly white-team alliance, but shall accept members from all color spheres. Supported by The Order of Light, we wish build strong diplomatic relationships between our friends across CyberNations.
Diplomats and visitors welcome!
