+ | Today came confirmation from the newly elected ruler of Minas Ithil ( Raoul De La Fere ) that Peace had been negotiated with the neighboring realms Norland, Eston and the Barony of Makar. This concludes what was a very long war that has had many twists and turns and different rulers at different points with ground being gained and lost throughout the war. | ||

+ | Well, I can tell you readers that its far more complicated than that ! It usually takes a very thorough knowledge of building plans, noiseless quills, very good ears and very good ear trumpets. Find yourself above, or below, a room occupied by a noble having his/her scribe dictating a received letter or being dictated too has the the distinct advantage of hearing everything.

+ | ''It has been a while since I had a letter written to you. I offer a Cease Fire and treaty proposal for you to discuss with your Senet. | ||

+ | |||
+ | ''The treaty is quite simple and standard:'' | ||
+ | |||
+ | ------------------------------------------------------- | ||
+ | |||
+ | * ''Peace treaty expires at the new year'' | ||
+ | |||
+ | * ''Max of 4k of militia in any single bordering region.'' | ||
+ | |||
+ | * ''After requesting permission, Priests of each realm can travel through each other land as long as they don't preach. Priests may preach in any region that the Region Lord has given permission. Upon preaching (without permission), they will get captured and they can no longer travel through the other realm.'' | ||
+ | |||
+ | * ''Neither realm will allow other realms to travel through their territiory lands to hold hostile actions on the other. | ||
+ | '' | ||
+ | * ''Knights and armies, including infiltrators, need permission to enter the other realm's land.'' | ||
+ | |||
+ | * ''Any trader of either realm caught while working in the black market will have all his of their current gold taken and a 50g fine from his home realm, AND will return the stolen food at a loss of profit. | ||

− | + | A few days ago the Cagilan Empire with support from Darka moved into the Western Falasan region of Nazgorn and immediately reports started coming in about a brutal attempt to take control of the region. While the peasants were resisting the enemy troops Falasan mustered an army in Beleriel and marched into the mountain region. With almost the same amount of combat strength the battle looked like it might be close. But in the end the depleted Cagilan Empire was still in command of the region.
