Perdan Delivers Lethal Blow

Date: March, 22 2008 Castle Ubent fell to Perdan, showing Ubent is all but finished. With no Castle, stronghold or city to turn to, Ubent is left with only one region. This region is sure to be taken by someone soon, if it's not Perdan. We wish the best of luck to all from Ubent.

Region Revolts!

Date: March, 18 2008 Yesterday an unthinkable, and quite unbelievable thing happened. The people of Kazan, out of pure fear of Fontan's armies, gathered together and threw OR from the region. On top of that they decided that OI could do a better job at defending them, and joined OI instead. What is to happen now? OI has Kazan, Fontan has Gadlock and Kazakh sits right in between still with OR. Will these people revolt and join OI before Fontan attacks or will Fontan get to the city first? We will have to wait and see....

Perdan Takes Castle Ubent

Date: March, 15 2008 Perdan had no trouble marching to the walls of Ubent. At which time Ubent put together as many forces as they could find to defend themselves from the overwelming forces of Perdan. In the end though it was not enough, as Perdan troops stopped at nothing to get through the walls and into the city. Then after the battle ended, Perdan wanted this to be a quick war to end in their favor so they started a TO of Castle Ubent. If Ubent loses their Castle now, it will be the end of them as everyone knows it. They will only have two regions left, of which will become useless to them, and which of course Perdan will most likely take shortly after as well.

Ashforth Falls!

Date: March, 13 2008 Yet again Fontan troops marched in and took military control of Ashforth, Old Rancagua's capital. This is not the first time Fontan has taken control, not even close to it in fact. On top of that, Fontan has taken regions from Old Rancagua, and is still taking more.

Chaos Temple and all of OI suffers a loss

Date: March, 12 2008 Earlier today the people of Chaos Temple found their beloved Duke, dead in his home. At first nothing appeared to be wrong, but when one of his servents went to check on him went screeming out of the home in yelling in horror. Many others went to see what had happened. First thought was someone murdered our great Duke....but after careful examinations came to realize it was not a murder. The people, all over OI suffered a great and horrible loss today. May he rest in peace, as he will be missed greatly.

Regions Exchanged as Wars Rage On

Date: March, 11 2008 Fontan has grown larger while Sirion and OR have grown smaller. Perdan and Itorunt continue to expand, while Tuchanon V, and Ibladesh lose more regions. Caligus has by far grown the most, while Yssaria has fallen to nothing but their capital left. Light of Fountain no longer exists, and Ubent remains exactly the same as before, as does Obsidian Islands. The difference between OI and the rest of the continent? OI has no place to expand, and no enemies to take their regions.

New Religion Found in Wasteland!

Date: March, 11 2008 Earlier this month, Knight Gauihu of Wasteland was appointed the new Baron of Wasteland. Now usually this is because the Baron no longer wishes to be Baron, has died, or is under suspicion of illegal activity. Not this time however. Gauihu had his vision and approched Baron Trinor about creating his religion in his home region. Trinor believed in his knight, and had Duke Kaan appoint Gauihu as the Baron so he could create the new religion. Best of luck with your new found beliefs Gauihu.
