Willem Tinsley, Royal Banker of Falasan, was appointed by King Reilwin this morning as Duke of Barad Gardor. This is what King Reilwin had to say: " Congratulations Duke Willem, It was a difficult decision, for there were many qualified candidates, but I am sure you will handle the affairs of the duchy as well as you are with the food trade. " , and to which Willem Tinsley replied: " My King, Let me thank you publicly for the appointment as Duke of Barad Gardor. I shall strive to continue the work that Sir Tank had done, making the city and the duchy one of the finest in all the land. " -- Jambo Lamonte Barony of Makar joins Minas Ithil / Norland war February 5th 2008 This evening BoM fought in Elost against Minas Ithil. This maneuver has been expected after the recent accusations by BoM that Minas Ithil was using PoM priests in Barad Riel ( Norland ). Which invalidated the "one on one" unofficial agreement between Minas Ithil and Norland. ( see January edition for full details ). Further complications arise from battle, BoM's involvement in the Minas Ithil / Norland war actually invalidates the treaty between Falasan and Eston. This treaty was signed at the end of the war, ( turn over for a copy of the treaty ). The important clause is neither Falasan or Eston may get involved in the Minas Itil / Norland war while its "one on one". This could quite likely put Norland into the middle of four realms fighting over its land very soon if Falasan and Eston choose to go to war again. -- Jambo Lamonte Tournament Announced February 5th 2008 Sir Dead Angel3 of the White Guardians, King of Minas Ithil has announced a tournament of Joust and Swordfight to be held in Shanandoah 9 days from now.
