Divine Horizon - Speech

Divine Horizon - Speech



One of the tasks I made for myself in working on Divine Horizon was to write an inciting speech by fictional Cardinal al-Rashid. It was a great assignment for myself in studying speech pathology, what works linguistically and what doesn't, and great speeches both in history and in fiction. Below is my first pass at writing this speech, which Cardinal al-Rashid gives in Damascus just prior to being assassinated. It draws heavily from Charlie Chaplin's Great Dictator speech.

So for one of the projects I'm doing right now, I've created a character for the 'communally written game' we're working on called Divine Horizon.  One of these things that we did as an exercise is we all created a character, 8 people, for our game.  These 8 characters would form the backbone for the playercharacters in the game.
