===Bloodstars' Blood Spilt by Brethren===
+
'''Current events'''<br>
Due to Raivan Empire's agreement to build temples as part of their neutrality, many lords were forced to join the Bloodstars. Imperial Chancellor Edward also seeked expansion and quickly took {{Reglink|DW|Freke}}. This caused outrage by Morek as they had claimed the land. Diplomacy grew tense between the newest superpower and the small Raivan Empire and Ordermarshal[[Stormcrow Family|Medugnatos Stormcrow]] and High Inquisitor Anabellium 'Runner' West of Morek put claims upon Aegir and {{Reglink|DW|Aegir's Deep}}. After several skirmishes in Aegir's Deep and military occupation of the region, the Raivan Empire gave in and agreed to give Freke to the papal state that was to be founded upon Moses' Peninsula.

Tensions between [[Wicrose]] and [[Westgard]] have led to [[/Astrumese Succession War/|war]].
  
===Madinan Tournament===
+
* [[Luria Nova]] has emerged as a victor in the war against [[D'Hara]], nearly pushing it out of its birthplace. For now, the Nebel island is split between the two realms.
In late January 2009, Sir Sage Meadowcrest, Duke of {{Reglink|DW|Madina}}, Marshal of the Madina Harbor City Guard, announced a swordfighting tournament to be held in Madina. There was a charge of 15 gold for every participant. The winner was rewarded with 500 gold. There was an reward of 200 gold for second place.
+
* [[D'Hara]] has increased its grip on the eastern coast of the Occidens and even recolonized [[Golden Farrow]]. An attempt to find safe farm lands on [[Dwilight/Toprak_Minor|Toprak]] proved [[Luria Nova]] a greater threat than the monsters in the west.
 +
* [[Tol Goldora]] is expanding into ancient [[Morek]] lands.
 +
* The alliance of [[Avenor]] and [[Westgard]] have increased their hold on the Upper Occidens.
 +
* [[Swordfell]] has expanded into the [[Dwilight/Divide_Mountains|Divide Mountains]] and around the [[Dwilight/Unterlands|Unterlands]]. It is also in a federation with [[Luria Nova]].
  
However, the tournament, while announced 7 days in advance, was too far away for the northern Dwilight realms to join. One account recorded 8 days of travel from Springdale Duchy.

===Victory For Virovene and the End of an Empire===
 
The War of Secession ended after a long siege by Virovene of Springdale's capital fortress of {{Reglink|DW|Nifelhold}}. The stronghold held out for many months and took a tremendous effort on behalf of Virovene to control the people. Despite Virovene's military superiority, it took many attempts to gain control. The taking of Springdale's final region meant that, after its long history, the first great realm on Dwilight has been lost.
 
  
===The Formation of the Holy State===
+
{{Template: Lost Realms of Dwilight}}
After much planning from the followers of Sanguis Astroism, a new theocracy has been formed upon the Mimer peninsular, known as [[Corsanctum]]. It was a long held plan of the Holy Prophet and founder of the faith, [[Hossenfeffer Family/Mathurin|Mathurin Hossenfeffer]], to create this new realm as a lynchpin and centre for the whole faith. Sanguis Astroism is one of the largest religions on the continent, and also has the most theocracies dedicated to its worship. It is hoped to become a centre for worship to the Bloodstars, and to be neutral ground for the other theocracies to work out their differences on neutral ground.
