+ | |title =Daimons Devour Food Stocks: Since when do they have an appetite? | ||
+ | |date =26th September 2007 | ||
+ | |article =Since just now it appears! Recently [[Fronen]]ian bureaucrats in [[Beluaterra/Wudenkin|Wudenkin]] (myself included) have noticed that the Daimons seem to be targeting regions with large granaries and food storage buildings. Once the savages find the food they proceed to tear it up and gobble it all down as they would a person. The observations we've made have also been spotted elsewhere. The [[Mesh]]an Finance Minister has observed the same phenomena. It looks like now the Daimons can no longer sustain themselves eating people and desire a more balanced diet, otherwise as Minister Blaeric of [[Beluaterra/Poitra|Poitra]] observes quote: "As many as 60 at a time have been confirmed to have died in a single half day from starvation after the food stocks were removed from a region." | ||
+ | |||
+ | The Minister later suggests to his liege, the Chancellor of Mesh that they remove their food stocks from regions where Daimons are located or appear to be heading towards. Subsequently, Chancellor Danny has asked rulers to do the same hoping that for the collective benefit of the Belauterran nations, the rulers and nobles of other countries work to starve and weaken the Daimons, our mutual enemy. (Well enemy to all nations save [[Sint]], [[Heen]], and [[Vlaanderen]]). Our Prime Minister Grego has reacted favorably towards this idea. Finance Minister Cloud has yet to comment. If successful, not only would such a strategy weaken the Daimonic hordes, but it would also ensure Fronen's regions (which are now in a degrading fast due to Daimon attacks) would remain adequately stocked with provision that will help keep the people's morale and loyalty from falling too low. | ||
+ | |||
+ | So, hats off to Mesh. Hopefully, the idea will work and the plan will be a great success. | ||

|article =In the two days since the last article on [[Vlaanderen]] was written some stunning new developments have occurred. It seems Vlaanderen has become the third nation to forge a ceasefire of sorts with the Daimonic forces. Reports and inside information tell us that after some discussion, a deal was brokered between the Vlaandereeni higher-ups and the Dreadlord Arcane. Arcane was given lordship over the mountainous region [[Beluaterra/Zisswii|Zisswii]] and its people. While the region still flies the banner of Vlaanderen, having a Daimon as a lord has caused some dissent Vlaanderen. Little more than that is known. For the sake of fairness, we asked both the King and Arch Judge of the kingdom about this issue. Neither has chosen to comment. | |article =In the two days since the last article on [[Vlaanderen]] was written some stunning new developments have occurred.

However, rumors also circulate that [[Fwuvoghor]] also met with a Daimon lord Silent, who was not allowed in the small state. More rumors abound in Fwuvoghor about the undead. We've heard from a dubious source that the Dreadlord Silent was spotted giving orders to the undead Lord Venganza and Maldiciones. All the Fwuvoghor information though must be taken with a grain of salt unless the knowledge can be verified by a second, trustworthy source. | However, rumors also circulate that [[Fwuvoghor]] also met with a Daimon lord Silent, who was not allowed in the small state.

A logical guess might be that the Daimons paid the two realms to not fight them. The gold could be a bribe to keep the western realms at bay.

+ | |date =27th September 2007 | ||
+ | |article =This morning, long-time [[Fronen]]ian Lord Perrin "Goldeneyes" [[Stien Family|Stien]] passed away. The man died an honorable hero's death defending his Republic and people from the Daimonic threat in [[Beluaterra/Marpii|Marpii]]. While fighting hand to hand with a Dreadlord, a flying Daimon swooped down and dropped a large rock, damaging the brain enough to kill Lord Perrin. After the battle, Perrin's body was removed and taken to a coroner. His body is now on its way to the mountains of [[Beluaterra/Qual|Qual]] where he is to be buried in a typical [[The Path of the Great Dragon|Draconic]] ceremony. Perrin was a former Baron in that region. He also spent time as Finance Minister of the Republic. In honor of Baron Perrin's valor and dedication, the current Lord of Qual has proclaimed that the highest mountain in the region be renamed "Perrin's Peak," and a small village near the mountain be renamed Perrinsford. We would like to thank Perrin for his service Fronen and hope he finds everlasting peace in death. | ||

Today, reports from [[Fronen]]ian Prime Minister Grego [[Nosferatus Family|Nosferatus]] tell us the Countess Elzebeth of [[Beluaterra/Sheja|Sheja]] "will most probably join Fronen." This would follow the trend set by Beluaterra's third largest city [[Beluaterra/Wudenkin|Wudenkin]]. The allegiance change result from a number of factors. For one, Prime Minister Grego asked Avalonian leadership if they'd consider giving Fronen a region to help feed Wudenkin. Furthermore, Fronen has been fairly successful in keeping the realm stable and secure in this invasion. Avalon has not met with equal success (although admittedly, they had far more to deal with). Grego's report also tells us that Elzebeth won't join Fronen until the Bureaucracy (currently working hard to fix Wudenkin and Xhahgus) is ready. It has also been suggested that [[Beluaterra/Ippetimbal|Ippetimbal]] join Fronen as well, for similar reasons. Prime Minister Grego was quoted as saying: |
"I have also Asked Scarlet to Contact Lord Otto of Ippetimbal, if Ippetimbal suffers to and the Lord is wiling to swear allegiance to Fronen, then we will take care of that region too." | "I have also Asked Scarlet to Contact Lord Otto of Ippetimbal, if Ippetimbal suffers to and the Lord is wiling to swear allegiance to Fronen, then we will take care of that region too." | ||

It seems that a few old peasant tyrannists are sitll around inturrupting th electoral process. Now while a majority of nobles probably would vote for Grego, he still can't officially become PM. Nobody can now until new ballots are remade. ((OOC: This is all actually the result of an irritating bug. Hopefully, it'll be fixed soon.)) |

The Republic of [[Fronen]] now once again owns the region and its previous lord, Count Vulcan [[Phoenix Family|Phoenix]] has been reinstated. With the Xhahgian dissenters removed, and the Daimons gone from Fronen's lands, the Republic is much safer and more stable. |
