(What a long trip)

That's right, Sirion's army is refitted and ready to go.  I myself--formerly troopless--was assigned a former militia unit, and will be moving to the front with a few straggelers after I tend to some personal business in Fontanese soils--Queen Evangeline of Perdan was gracious enough to save me a day worth of travelling, God bless her soul.  So, Gregor and I, were fortunate enough to wipe out some monsters in Troyes...a baptism of evil blood on our sacred blades...they are clean no more, and they will only get filthier once we enter the Islands for the first time.  So long as I have breath, my life will be for Sirion, albiet these wounds ache, there is still work to be done! I cannot rest until a stable peace exists: if only for one day! -Doc

That's right, Sirion's army is refitted and ready to go. I myself--formerly troopless--was assigned a former militia unit, and will be moving to the front with a few straggelers after I tend to some personal business in Fontanese soils--Queen Evangeline of Perdan was gracious enough to save me a day worth of travelling, God bless her soul. So, Gregor and I, were fortunate enough to wipe out some monsters in Troyes...a baptism of evil blood on our sacred blades...they are clean no more, and they will only get filthier once we enter the Islands for the first time. So long as I have breath, my life will be for Sirion, albiet these wounds ache, there is still work to be done! I cannot rest until a stable peace exists: if only for one day! -Doc

What a Long Trip!

The trip into Stora from Kazan is twenty-four hours long! For a man of my age...that is four ticks!!! The average round-trip time found from various Sirionites back to Oligarch after the first campaign was reported to be 15 turns. Then of course there is the trip of OC to Sirion...another 6 turns or so--for those that lost most of their units, and/or need to add more troops. Hopefully AS can be defeated once and for all with this offensive because an Army simply cannot effectively travel so far from its capital and attain success easily. There are simply too many gaps for errors, we pray that Perdan relieve some of the pressure sooner than later. This war is costing Sirion a fortune--in troop's pay, so the Soldiers are happy...but the nobles are broke. May the spine of Avamar be broken on this trip because Fontan's own trip up here isn't that much shorter either...and Sirion probably won't be back with a large army for 10-14 days after the return home to resupply. -Doc
