 A new King for Westmoor! 23rd November 1011

WestmoorVoting.png

Today Westmoor celebrates the coronation of our new King Jor! This is the second time in history that Jor has come to the throne beating all other candidates with a strong sixty two votes. King Jor’s first statement (as King) to Westmoor is published thus below:


People of Westmoor,

I thank you for your support and the faith you shown in restoring me to the throne of our beloved Kingdom. I will do my best not to disappoint. In particular, I would like to thank those who have expressed congratulations on the restoration. Words of kindness go a long way in this world, so long as they are heartfelt.

I have contacted several of our neighbors, expressing my hope for bettering relations between our realms and will begin on the Sirion/Fontan situation as soon as I am able.

There will be several reviews during the next few days of our current situation.

My Lords General, Treasurer, and Justice, I ask for a full report on the state of the Kingdom within your professional domain.

Also, my Lord Justice, I ask for you to craft a treaty proposal for Fontan and one for Sirion so that I may review it for dispatch.

To my subjects, the honorable nobles of our Kingdom: Know that I am always available for discourse. I have never turned down private conversation between myself and my fellow Westmoorians.

May the Light guide our path to a bright future.

Sir Jor Tanos

King of Westmoor, Ambassador of Westmoor

 Kazakh taken-over 22nd November 1011

Kazakh the capitol city of the Sultanate of Asena has fallen to Obsidian Island control. This now means the Sultanate has lost both its cities and has only the coastal region of Pucallpa left. It is likely only a matter of time before the sultanate falls. Then again we’ve been saying that phrase for the last five months so does it really come as a surprise? What’s surprising is that it took this long for it to happen.

The Sultanate still has twenty two die hard nobles who are fighting it out to the end although we find it hard to imagine how it’s possible to even recruit an army out there. This firmly cements the Obsidian islanders hold over its new territories, Kazakh, Gadlock and Kazan (although Kazan rebelled today although this is not likely to last).

It seems likely that Nivemus will now take control of the rest of the Sultanate’s former regions possibly including contested regions such as Obando and Caqueta. Reason being if Sirion had wanted these regions they would likely have taken them by now, but this is of course pure speculation.

 King Maedros Abdicates! 21st November 1011

In what seems today to be the end of an era King Maedros has abdicated the throne after further pressure was put on him in the House of Lords. It was revealed yesterday in a shocking letter received by this paper’s editor that the king had not contacted the Chancellor of Fontan since the temporary neutrality began with Fontan last month.

Soon after the announcement candidates began announcing themselves for the throne so that we now currently have a total of four although this could change today or by the end of the election period. The candidates thus far are:

Armstrong Ironsides

Jor Tanos

Maliki Nautilus

Thomas Foxglove

This paper urges all nobles to vote for their preferred candidates and consider each based upon the weight of their words in the debates that follow.

 Ibladesh splits!? 19th November 1011

If you've been keeping track of our regional news bulletin you’ll remember us saying that on the 13th of this month Ibladesh elected a new Pontifex to replace Abraxas Arrakis who was struck by an unknown disease and unable to continue his duties. Although long and hard on both sides it seems the swords of Perdan and Caligus have struck a fatal blow to Ibladesh. News down the grapevine suggests that the new Pontifex Aeneas Quintus Ennius intends to create a new realm out of the duchy of Semall which will remain neutral in the war against Caligus and Perdan.

This will presumably save the Church of Ibladesh from complete destruction but likely not the greater realm of Ibladesh itself? Perdan and Caligus have been hitting Ibladesh regions hard (nobody reading the regional map recently can deny). Zawr was recently taken over by Perdan and Al Aquabah driven rogue a region bordering the capitol itself not to mention the countless other regions down the east and west coast that have suffered horrific looting and war damage. Details are still lacking and much is unknown but this new realm is likely to be small and its politics in relation to its two larger neighbours(?) remain an enigma.

Nivemus' new flag released

Nivemus today issued copies of their new flag and crest depicting as they told us last month a rider on his horse in yellow with orange and white striped background. Their national colour is red and as released to all nobles of the East continent today, their first government is comprised of the following:

Ruler: Talius Valorian
General: Turgon Noldorin
Judge: Neji Uzamaki
Banker: Sirius Drakon

Ambassadors take note their official titles will as so:
Kronogos (ruler), Stratarchos (General), Legodos (Judge), Arithogon (Banker).

 Sirion Skirmish in Bruck! 4th November 1011

The so called Red Dragons were shown with shame today as three of their number without warning decided to enter Bruck and engage Westmoorian troops in battle. Dallian Alumaani Morgan Hossenfefferand John Christensen all during the day entered bruck and slaughtered a great number of the Westmoorian troops there without due reason in a dishonorable conflict that had no place or cause on Westmoorian Soil. Is this how Sirion's elite army treats other realms they are not at war with? Several Westmoorian nobles were wounded including the Westmoorian Collumn's marshal Ravier Nebehn.

The Sirion General appologised for the attack including Dallian Alumaani who was involved in the incident however according to the victims in Bruck some of the Sirion nobles were actualy taunting Westmoor for having lost the battle. Morgan Hossenfeffer was quoted as saying "Always a pleasure to greet Westmoor this way!". How can troops taunt the defeated in a battle which they themselves showed no honour?
