The following video statement was released for airing this afternoon.
Standing upon the steps of the Rhydin Public Library on a sunny day, Ebon smiled to the camera. "Hello. My name is Ebon Ilnaren, and I'd like to serve this city as Governor. Yes, I would consider it a service. It has been pointed out by many that this city is not a place that any one person, or even a group of people, can truly rule." He paused and raised an eyebrow, as if daring anyone to say otherwise. "Those who say that are absolutely right."
"That's not why I'm running. I know it's insanity to try and force this city to fit my ideals, however much I'd like to do so. At the same time, I'm not going to make a mockery of the position, or treat it as a joke, as nothing." His head turned left to right and back in a slow shake. "I want to help bring our community together whenever we can, and see what we can do together, whether it's helping out those in need or simply letting our spirit shine. I want to know what?s on your mind," and here he pointed directly at the camera, which pulled back to reveal peoplke standing on either side of Ebon, "and what we can do together."
The scene shifted, and now Ebon was walking down the street. "I may not be the best candidate to serve Rhydin as Governor. If elected, all I can do is my best, and hope that's enough. Feel free to contact me at any time with questions, ideas, or even just to share a story or two. Thank you for your time, and I'll see you around."
