Rumours spread and tales are sung about a huge battle in Winkamus:
  
−
'''Neji Uzamaki- Prime Minister Zakilevo, you fought in the Great War as a knight, rose through the ranks to become General, and ultimately as General destroyed the Sultanate of Asena. As ruler, you have changed the flag of Sirion as well as gone to war with Westmoor. You have a long, proud career. What would you say is your crowning achievement in Sirion?
+
Perdan vs. Caligus
−
'''
 
  
−
Zakilevo Lapallanch- It is probably starting the Westmoorian war. Through the war, we revitalized our military and gained 15~20 or so nobles. Our military suffered from long peace and became very disorganized. But I can proudly say our machine is back in action, ready to fight Sirion's enemies effectively.
+
Estimated strengths: 950 men vs. 440 men
  
−
'''NU- If you could do one thing differently in your career in Sirion, what would you have done differently?
+
'''Attacker Victory!'''}}
−
'''
 
  
−
ZL- If I was given a chance to change something, I would like to choose my first term as General of Sirion. I want to fix the first siege of Oroya and skirmish in Juazeiro, where Royal Bastian Moore lost his life. I could have planned things more thoroughly and could have saved more soldiers.
+

|article='''Huge Battle Fought'''
  
−
'''NU- After only a few short months as Prime Minister of Sirion, you are not only stepping down as Prime Minister, but also leaving for the newly created realm Dunnera. Is there a reason for your leaving Sirion completely, and do you ever plan to return?
+
Rumours spread and tales are sung about a huge battle in Commonyr:
−
'''
 
  
−
ZL- I have worked in Sirion for most of my life but I just felt like I have done what I could within Sirion. I am leaving Sirion to find something I could do outside of the realm now. I hope to improve the relations between the republic and the colony. As for my plan to return Sirion, I am not sure. I do not have a plan on that yet.
+
Sirion vs. Westmoor
  
−
'''NU- Sirion has a long tradition of electing their Generals to become Prime Minister. Do you think General Webin will become the next Prime Minster?
+
Estimated strengths: 1590 men vs. 820 men
−
'''
 
  
−
ZL- Doubt it. I don't think General Webin is interested. Maybe he will change his mind in the future.
+
Adrian Daimall, Knight of Westmoor was captured by Manish Eastwood's unit.
  
−
'''NU- What advice do you have for the next Prime Minister in his reign?
+
'''Attacker Victory!'''}}
−
'''
 
  
−
ZL- Be honest, do not make back deals (like King Jor). Honesty will be the biggest weapon you can wield. Always be open to other opinions. Nothing is perfect. Do not believe for a second everything you are doing is right and will work out. Always plan things ahead.

'''NU- Under your reign, Sirion and Nivemus has enjoyed better relations, especially since the bannings in Nivemus. Would you suggest to the next Prime Minister of Sirion to continue building that relationship stronger?
+
Rumours spread and tales are sung about a huge battle in Meuse:
−
'''
 
  
−
ZL- Of course. We can improve our relations more. I have told the council a few ideas and I hope the next Prime Minister will work on them.
+
Caligus vs. Perdan
  
−
'''NU- With you joining the new realm Dunnera, will you advocate for good relations between Sirion and Dunnera?
+
Estimated strengths: 1260 men vs. 1740 men
−
'''
 
  
−
ZL- That is my plan. I want Dunnera to become a trusty ally of Sirion. By doing so Sirion will secure their south while the colony will secure their north.
+
Albion Pendragon, Duke of Domus, Margrave of Domus was captured by Joreb deLacy's unit.
  
−
'''NU- Do you view this tournament as your going away party, in a sense?
+
'''Defender Victory!'''}}
−
'''
 
  
−
ZL- I guess you can say that. This tournament has turned into one of the biggest tournaments in a couple years. Can even be considered the biggest tournament ever since the Great Northern War started. This tournament is being held to celebrate Sirion's victory over Westmoor and Duke Ecthelion's 10th anniversary in Sirion. Even Westmoorians are here to congratulate Sirion's vicotry.

The nobles of the new realm are a mixture of Caligian and Sirionite nobles as well as Fontanese nobles. As reported by the '[[New Westmoor]]', the current Prime Minister of Sirion, Zakilevo Lapallanch , plans to join the new colony as well. It will be interesting to see if this will bring the two realms of Caligus and Sirion together, turning the the three power blocs of the continent into two.

|headline= Power Rankings of the East Continent
 
−
|article=Hello loyal readers! I hope you have enjoyed the first couple segments from my co-editor Vessol. I am sure there will be many more interesting stories to come.
 
  
−
One interesting thing we will be doing every month is the EC Power Rankings. These rankings are a compilation of noble count, military strength(both mobile and total are taken into account), food supply and production, gold output, and diplomatic ties. Other factors may be taken into account on occasion(such as religion/religion strength), but those are the major criteria taken into account.
+
Westmoor vs. Sirion
  
−
So, without further to do, I unveil to you the first Power Ranking of the White Tree Times!
+
Estimated strengths: 750 men vs. 780 men
  
 +
'''Defender Victory!'''}}
  
−
1. Sirion
+
{{RightWhiteTree
 +
|date=May 5, 2013
 +
|article='''Huge Battle Fought'''
  
−
Sirion has the biggest total military strength, as well as the most gold output, the most nobles, and a decent food supply. They have stumbled a bit against Westmoor recently, allowing Westmoor to get back a couple regions and win a few battles on Sirion territory. Nevertheless, there is no doubt who the top dog in the Sirion vs. Westmoor war is and no doubt that if the war were to drag on without interference, which side would prevail.
+
Rumours spread and tales are sung about a huge battle in Al Aquabah:
  
−
2. Perdan
+
Perdan vs. Armonía, Eponllyn
  
−
Perdan has a bit more gold than Caligus does, as well as the second biggest total Military CS on the island(for now). Though they produce just enough food for themselves and have little room for growth at the moment, they are still the solid, second-best realm of the East Continent.
+
Estimated strengths: 1250 men vs. 220 men
  
−
3. Caligus
+
'''Attacker Victory!'''}}
  
−
Caligus rounds out the 'Big 3', slightly behind Perdan in seemingly every category. However, if Caligus were to take hold of the rogue regions to their North or South, they could quietly slide ahead of Perdan, and perhaps even Sirion. The potential is there and we will see what Dobromir, the veteran King of Caligus, does with it.
+
{{RightWhiteTree
 +
|date=May 5, 2013
 +
|article='''Huge Battle Fought'''
  
−
4. Westmoor
+
Rumours spread and tales are sung about a huge battle in Winkamus:
  
−
I have to be honest, I almost dropped this realm to fifth. What convinced me otherwise, though, was two things: the Church of Humanity, and the fact that they are holding their own in single combat against Sirion. Their military boasts huge numbers for a realm their size, weaving in and out between the second strongest total military to the fourth strongest. Much of this strength is tied up into militia, but they have protected their regions well as of late against the stronger Sirionite army. The Church of Humanity, also, has far reaching influence and has been become increasingly more and more involved with political affairs. Will they turn out like the Flow of the Balance? Or are they just enlightening the huddled masses? Only time will tell.
+
Perdan vs. Caligus
  
−
5. Armonia
+
Estimated strengths: 860 men vs. 380 men
  
−
Westmoor has been strong in their war as of late, but Armonia is actually winning their war. Armonia started off the 'War of the Southern Queens' by quickly taking Ejarr Puutl and then going on to win a battle or two in Jariedma. Eponllyn, although much weaker statistically, has pushed Armonia back from their inner rural regions and won a couple of defensive battles. However, Armonia is running the show right now, having more gold, more nobles, and 10K CS more total strength. Eponllyn has more food, but unless a long winter hits or another realm interferes, this showdown between the two Queens should go in Armonia's favor.
+
'''Attacker Victory!'''}}
  
−
6. Nivemus
+
{{RightWhiteTree
 +
|date=May 4, 2013
 +
|article='''Huge Battle Fought'''
  
−
In sixth place is our realm Nivemus. Nivemus has a strong ally in Sirion and has as much total military strength as Eponllyn despite being at peace. This realm also boasts the second best food supply rate and still seems to have room to grow so far as gold production is concerned. If Nivemus continues rebuilding, they could turn themselves into a solid realm.
+
Rumours spread and tales are sung about a huge battle in Meuse:
  
−
7. Eponllyn
+
Caligus vs. Perdan
  
−
Tied for the least amount of nobles, as well as somewhat overwhelmed in their current war, Eponllyn places seventh. Eponllyn has the smallest gold economy, but they try to make up for it with the best food supply rate on the continent. If they lose a few more battles, though, we could see them slip to last place in the power rankings.
+
Estimated strengths: 2030 men vs. 2390 men
  
−
8. Obsidian Islands
+
Tygus Rolund, High Marshal of Caligus, Count of An Najaf was seriously wounded by Nalok IceBeard's unit.
 +
Sir Bors Zhuravlev, Baron of Mines of Isadril was captured by Elkon Asfaloth's unit.
 +
Trialops Gracious, Knight of Viseu was seriously wounded by Agrippa de Calatine's unit.
  
−
Three reasons why OI is in last place: One, they have 22 nobles and 11 regions, a bad noble to region ratio if there ever was one. Two, they barely have enough food to feed themselves. Three, they have the smallest military on the continent. OI has recently gained a slight gold edge over seventh place Eponllyn and has several powerful allies. If OI fixes a few of their small problems, or Eponllyn continues to lose their war, OI could easily move up a notch.
+
