News Stories and Words from the Editors		News around the Continent
February 25, 2008 Carelian Honour A face of Carelia previously unseen since Garthon Dunmeric's coronation was revealed today. After a handful of Ashlantean nobles bravely volunteered to travel to Riverholm as a show of our fearless defiance, Carelian forces surprisingly refused to be drawn into the ensuing battle between Suvillian and Ashlantean forces outside the city gates. Reports say that upon seeing the standards of Sir Kronos Titans, former King of Carelia, in the Ashlantean ranks, the Carelian soldiers outright refused to take up swords against the man who completely transformed that once weak kingdom into an honourable force to be reckoned with. It is a pity that sense of honour died amongst the upper echelons of the Carelian nobility as soon as he was ousted, if not amongst the Carelian soldiers whose actions this day were laudable. In the aftermath of the battle, Garthon Dumeric, King of Carelia, has since issued a wave of war declarations in what can only be an effort to try and break the back of the challenge to his authority among the troops. The Chronicle thinks it will take a lot more than that to destroy the awe that Carelians clearly still feel for their former monarch. - Wolfram February 24, 2008 Tara shows her quality In an act that surprised few in the Ash Sea Islands this morning, Lister O'claude Ve, Dictator of Tara, declared war upon our kingdom. Reports seen by this publication reveal that Tara feels aggrieved over previous words and actions of the Kings and Nobles of the Ash Sea Islands. All these are mere quibbles however, when compared to Taran actions towards the Ash Sea Islands in the recent past. Although in the end, Tara may have personally involved herself in the fall of RedSpan, just a few months before that Tara had readied itself for war alongside that disreputable kingdom, gathering in Jagla to prepare an assault against the Ash Sea Islands. Only the sheer strength of the Ashlantean response forced their stand down. More likely than aggrievement, we feel Tara is motivated purely by land lust, as ever it has been. Once again Taran relations have been dictated simply by how much land they believe they can gain with a minimum of fighting - even at the expense of their sworn agreements and alliances. The Ash Sea Islands can count itself lucky that it is now able to confront Taran treachery in the open and no longer have to endure Taran friendship in any way, shape or form. - Wolfram Return of the Chronicle!
