This information I felt I had to share with those among us that I believe are still true to the cause of ending the invasion.
A few weeks ago, I organized a group of adventurers to go on a quest. Their mission was to uncover what they could from the netherworld. The group suffered from over 50% casualties just making it to Jobo's mouth. 12 were sent. Only 3 returned. The mission was presumed to be a success in that we now knew that nothing was to be found in Jobo's mouth. I was wrong.
A few days ago, one of the group whom we presumed to be dead, returned.
He had found something in Jobo's Mouth and He was transported to the Netherworld where he has gleaned valuable information regarding that place.
First - not Surprisingly he found that the Netherworld musters their forces there before traveling via portals to our world.
Second - The daimons need to win a battle each half day for some reason. The Netherworld were very concerned that they accomplish this task. The consequences seemed dire but we do not know why or what would happen should they fail to do this.
Third - Each portal leads to some place on this continent.
Fourth - They only have three portals established here. Two of their locations are known. The third we were unable to uncover.
Understandably he did not stay long. He journeyed to the first portal and leaped through without knowledge of where it lead. After jumping through he found himself in a region that belongs to the Daimon Arcane in Zisswii. I cannot recommend any trading relation be continued with Vlaanderen. I hope that you all feel the same.

It puzzles me how you knew the commoners would be able to traverse the gate, and how you knew which gate to use. I am also curious as to how you know the daimons must win at least 2 battles a day. Was your commoner able to talk to someone in the netherworld? And how did he manage to escape detection?
You questions are very helpful and I would be happy to answer them with what I know so that both of our minds can decipher the information. Perhaps you will be able to see things that I missed. But more importantly It is always best to share information with allies.
I actually had no idea that Commoners could traverse gates. Their mission was to simply see what they could see and report anything unusual. I had suspected that they might be able to uncover gates as a past military expedition to Jobo's mouth had failed to find anything but of course they were wiped out so maybe that meant nothing. Only way to find out was to send someone there to check and see. Orginally they reported nothing other than their high losses. Then one whom we though lost returned and we are still discussing what he/she saw there.
As for Jobo's mouth. I told them to find a portal and they went there. As good a guess as any I suppose since that is where the invasion first began and that was the first region taken over by them.
In regards to the 2 battles a day, I do not yet have the full information on that. Only his/her report that it is so. I have no reason to doubt him/her but I will inquire about this for you.
I have asked him/her how he/her escaped and his/her answer is a logical one. He/she hurried as fast as he/she could out of there and jumped through the first exit he/she came across. I do not know if he/she talked to someone but this is a good question to ask him/her and I will.
