Xeon, Count of Jagla, dies in Nardil
October 2nd, 2007

Our main Foda office just received the stunning news of the death of our Hero, Xeon. Here are the words of his vassal and Tara Times Reporter, Rojo:


It was with a heavy heart that I received word that my lord, Xeon the Shadow, Count of Jagla, had died fighting monsters in the region of Nardil. My messenger delivered me the news yesterday while I lay in bed recovering from a bout of the flu and of course it shattered my heart. I didn't know him well, but in the short time that he was my lord he struck me as a kind, generous and brave man. A Taran through and through and a man that others should look up to.

I was also gripped with a red hot anger, not only at the fell beasts that killed him, but at myself for not being there when he needed me. I know my presence at that fateful battle wouldn't have changed the outcome or saved his life but I still feel guilty that I lay in bed while Xeon died nobly on the battlefield.

And what a chivalrous way to die. Trying to selflessly save the helpless peasants from the evil abominations that would have murdered their children and destroyed their homes. I am positive that whatever gods are out there will take his benevolent soul to a heaven where it can rest in peace for ever more. Let our bards sing his heroic end from the rooftops of Foda to the bars of Stargard to inspire Tarans everywhere.

R.I.P. Xeon the Shadow, Count of Jagla

Rojo DeVesta (Knight of Jagla)

Hangman, Duke of Stargard.
September 11th, 2007

Hangman Perkele has been installed the new Duke of Stargard two days ago by Dictator Lister. Already hard at work repairing the damage Redspan mismanagement has inflicted on the city, Hangman and the Army has stabilized the region and calmed the population. Despite this, it will be a long time before the peasants recover.

Elinda, former Duchess of Stargard, is currently vacationing in the Colonies. I am sure she sends her regards and congratulations to her replacement.
