Message to the Monsters

In the recent days, Fronen's House of War learned that monsters, originating in Thalmarkin has planned to head southwards through Old Grehk and into Fronen. In response, Fronenian troops gathered in Jyl. The region is protected by a river, crossable only at a single bridged point. The region is also defended by a motte and bailey. The Fronenian troops has significant wooden defenses for protection as well as heavy armor. At noon today, the monster horde crossed the bridge.

The archers and crossbowmen were given orders to fire at will, which they did. When the horde gathered at the gate, they were immediately met with all forms of weaponry and a firm defensive wall. The beasts were unable to break through Fronen's defenses. In the course of the battle, Kri'fahj, leader of the creatures was killed. We were unable to identify exactly what unit killed him as there were multiple arrow and sword wounds.

More interesting though is what happened after the battle. Grego, Prime Minister of the Republic of Fronen proceeded to mutilate the corpse. The head was removed, the bones separated and/or broken, and the flesh diced. He then dump the wreck remains into a sack, paid a messenger a hefty sum and ordered him to deliver the sack to the next monster lord he found. This sends the monsters a clear message, that they will find neither relics, nor friends, nor refuge in Fronen.

As a result of these events, morale is high among the nobility. Grego has been quoted as calling the battle "A great Victory for a Great nation." Cries of "Hail Fronen!" fill the air.

Irombro sacked

Today, the city of Irombro was sacked. Irombro, Headquaters of the Riombaran secessionists has been facing steady defeats to the Republic of Riombara. The de facto state is reduced only to the city of Irombro and the exclave, Cagamir. Now the secessionists are faced with a new threat, one that all of Beluaterra faces. Dominus, a servant of a being known only as the Necromancer, came in with 300 of the living dead storming through the city's palisade and its 425 guards. Torerro led the guardsmen in a valiant but fruitless attempt to fight the beasts. Regrettably for him, all 425 soldiers died, were wounded, or ran away from the fearsome creatures. Officially the fight was reported as indecisive, but in reality, this is a clear victory for the Necromancer.

Political changes in Fronen

The Republic of Fronen has seen significant governmental changes in the past months. In the past election, all four council members have been replaced. First, Grego, the former Minister of Defense was elected Prime Minister with widespread support. Grego beat out his strongest competitor, the incumbent Prime Minister adras who did not campaign 56%-18% , but was electable. Shortly after his election, Grego appointed Trumpet, Count of Ieara as his successor for Defense Minister.

For Grand Justiciar, Fronen saw an incredibly close election. The author of this article chose not to run for a 6th month-long term for personal reasons, and supported Cloud, Baron of Cori for Grand Justiciar. Opponents supported Tiridius, MArshal of Fronen's Lightning. Evntually this election was won by a single vote. Cloud won 34% to 33%, gaining a small plurality of votes.

Finally, Apothes left the realm after an incredibly controversial decision. The realm was split in confidence for him. Perrin Goldeneyes won out and became Apothes' successor with about 45% of the vote. However, throughout his term many mistakes have been made including (but not limited to) mismanaged money, and food not getting to hungry peasants. As a result, a referendum on his support is being voted on.
