Caqueta Liberated

22 November 2010 (Kazan) by Joseph Ironheart, Knight of Pedrera

Today, our armed forces have liberated Caqueta once more. The region traditionally comprises the Sultanate's tenth territory to the far east. Time of Sirionite rule has unfortunately brain washed some of the Asenian subjects at this border region. It is expected that Marshal Taysir would be given lordship over the region, due to possessing the highest claim.

Courier Revived?

1 November 2010 (Kazakh) by Random editor #3

There has been much excitement at the news that the courier has been revived. "We are not sure yet, we will see how it goes. Please don't look at me like at that" Came the answer of editor Sir Joseph Ironheart.

My First Act as Grand Vezir

16 November 2010 (Oroya) by Grand Vezir Leandros Galvez, Baron of Pedrera

A flow of infiltrators, assassins and other criminals are sent by Sirion to bring chaos to the lands of the Sultan. They burn, loot and rape, or worse, they try to assassinate the great nobles of Asena. That must stop now, and this morning Brand Mithridates was banished from the Sultanate of Asena for the failed assassination attempt on the life of Dagnarus Fox Fangs (Knight of Pucallpa). Mithridates is a young man, and not as experienced as some of the other infiltrators of Sirion, but I am delighted with the first act of banishment this soon after my appointed to the office of Grand Vezir. But I am still waiting for the first infiltrator who shall be executed by my hand, to set as example to all the vermin from the Elven Republic!

Tournament Report

24 November 2010 (Oroya) by Grand Vezir Leandros Galvez, Baron of Pedrera

The tournament in Perdan is over. 83 nobles from 9 realms fought and drank. There was a swordfighting and a jousting contest. Sir Noah Capet (Noble of Fontan) won the swordfighting tournament (Sir Krabat van Belhanka (Knight of Sirion, Sirion) came second place). The jousting contest was won by Netaxia Scarfist (Knight of Ibladesh, Ibladesh) (Second place: Sir Christoff Stormbringer, Marquess of Tota, Marshal of the The Army of Ramsus Protectors).

Battles of Seize

14 November 2010 (Oroya) by Grand Vezir Leandros Galvez, Baron of Pedrera

The Iron Wolves of Asena marched on and cleared Sermbar from a small unit of the Republic of Sirion. Together with Fontan they dominated the countryside, and Pasha Viseslav Stublic, Baron of Obando ordered to loot the lands. The merciful Pasha showed sympathy for the peasantry as he took them under his wing when he specifically ordered not to kill or rape the inhabitants of Sermbar. But Sirion was not amused and came with a counter-attack. The Iron Wolves of Asena prepared the defences together with Tanya Jimenez, Vice-Marshal of the Sultanate's Striking Fury, but tasted defeat. And the forces of Fontan we accompanied the defence in Sermbar were without leadership, but not surprising as Commonyr was overrun by vast numbers of Sirion (850 men vs. 1370 men). Fontan required all their nobles to liberate their soil from the Sirionite elves. And against all odd, the strong and united line of infantry form our democratic allies brought them victory, a battle which their heroes will tell tales about to for a long time. But not only Fontan was victorious today. Small forces of the Sultanate cleared our lands from all Sirion troops when they gained victory in Caqueta. Time to refit and return with greater strength. Lets show them what we are made of.

Westmoor Elected New King

6 November 2010 (Salta) by Joseph Ironheart, Knight of Pedrera

Westmoor has elected Jor Tanos as it's new sovereign with 18% of the vote. The election came shortly after King Corwin stepped down. We wish to offer our congratulations to the new king, and wish him luck at his new job.

New Grand Vezir!

9 November 2010 (Kazakh) by Joseph Ironheart, Knight of Pedrera

This evening, the Sultanate has commemorated the appointment of a new Grand Vezir. Lord Leandros Galvez was chosen for the post, after Lord Viper Snake has stepped down. There are many hopes for the new judge. Some words from the Grand Vezir himself, Lord Leandros Galvez: "Every infiltrator who enters my dungeons will receive a swift and firm punishment. I shall be without mercy for those assassins. And they will know my name and they shall fear it!" And the courier wishes to take this chance to thank the former Grand Vezir for his past services as judge of Asena.

5 November 2010 (Caqueta) by Joseph Ironheart, Knight of Pedrera

Lord Aulus Severus has been elected new Chancellor of Fontan. He succeeds Chancellor Zadek Dragul, who served fontan in that post for a considerable time. We wish the best of luck to the new Chancellor, as well prosperity to our friends in Fontan.

5 November 2010 (Obando) by Joseph Ironheart, Knight of Pedrera

Our military suffered a setback this evening at Caqueta. We offer our condolences to the families of our brave soldiers who gave their lives to Asena.
