article =After many years of continual strife, Peace has finally been achieved in Perdan! The rulers of [[Perdan]], [[Caligus]], [[Sirion]], [[Fontan]], [[Ibladesh]], [[Yssaria]], and [[Itorunt]] have all signed a treaty to bring peace to all our combined realms. The first steps were taken today by the raising of relations between Perdan and Sirion from war to neutrality. The full text of the treaty can be found [[The Rampant Lion/Treaty|here]].

|date=February 14, 2008
Confusion in the internal communications in Fontan threatened to end the treaty before it could begin, however. Over 6 hours '''after''' agreeing to the treaty, the troops of Sirion and Fontan invaded the Perdanese region of Brive. The forces of Fontan commenced looting the region immediately. When the forces were contacted, they claimed to be unaware that the treaty had been finalized. Indeed, a full twelve hours after the signing of the treaty, Sir Teshup, Supreme Judge of Fontan, claimed to be unaware that the treaty had been been signed! Perhaps things work a bit slower in Fontan, or perhaps Chancellor Gregor just doesn't bother telling anyone what he's doing. But one would think that signing a peace treaty would be something that you would want to tell your senior council about.}}

While successfully attacking and defeating the Old Rancaguan army, the Fontanese army has been plundering the Old Rancaguan capital city of [[Ashforth]]. Fontan's simultaneous military accomplishments against Sirion, Old Rancagua, and Light of Fountain have been extremely successful.}}

article =Following the recent abdication of Queen Clarissa, Lady Evangeline has been selected by the nobles of Perdan as the new Queen of Perdan. After the election results were made public, Queen Evangeline made the following brief announcement:

|headline= Light of Fountain Is No More
<i>Thank you to everyone that voted for and put their faith in me. From today I will be serving Perdan in a different way, but I promise that I will always serve with every ounce of strength within me and I will do my best for Perdan!

+
{{RampantLeftV2
Today is the start of a new beginning for Perdan, a new tact in diplomacy and new management of realm affairs. We need to rally together as a realm to beat back those that wish to destroy us. Working together, Perdan will continue to be a force to be reckoned with for the East Continent.

|headline= Itorunt Nobles Tortured and Executed
Thank you to Clarissa for the service she has showed Perdan. I am sorry that her ideas were neither in line with mine nor the realms, but it can not be doubted that she always had Perdan foremost in her mind. She will always be respected and her continued help appreciated.
+
|article= Two days ago Sir Geoffrey, a noble of [[Itorunt]], was executed by Sir Eleran Perfect II, judge of [[Tuchanon V]]. This follows closely on the heels of the execution of Itoruntian noble Sir Olorin at the hands of Sir Lothar of [[Ubent]]. Both realms had non-execution agreements with Itorunt at the time. Both judges also claimed that they were new to the office of judge, and were not aware of any such agreement. Sir Eleran not only stated that he did not know of any agreement, but that it did not matter if a prior judge of Tuchanon V had made such an agreement, as the agreement was not made with him. Sir Eleran's statement regarding the matter was extremely confused: ''"Itorunt and Tuchanon V do not have any agreements. Itorunt may have one with Tuchanon V, but I do not have one with Itorunt."''
 
 
Thank you again fellow Perdanites!!
 
  
Evangeline

Sir Geoffrey was also repeatedly tortured only 10 days ago by Sir Rackir, also of Tuchanon V. When questioned about the events, Sir Rackir replied that since he was incapable of defending his lands militarily, that he ''"..will make their nobles pay..."''. This tactic is reminiscent of the tactics of those employed by the Avamarian occupational government of the Kalmar Islands against the liberating army of Perdan. These tactics backfired against the Avamarians in the Islands, and they will no doubt backfire against the Tuchanons as well. Such desperate brutality only engenders hatred and resentment against those who employ it.}}

|headline=Light of Fountain On Its Last Legs
headline =Peace Treaty Proposed|
+
|article=Despite being caught in a war against four enemies, [[Fontan]] has shown great military acumen in prosecuting the war. They have held off assaults by [[Sirion]], [[Old Rancagua]], [[Obsidian Islands]], and [[Light of Fountain]]. Not only that, they have managed to gain territory despite the number of enemies they have faced. Fontan has taken control of [[Poitiers]] from Old Rancagua, and [[Tokat]] and [[Sordidus]] from Light of Fountain. Although they lost control of [[Montijo]] to Sirion for a short while, they took control of the region of [[Oberndorf]] away from Sirion in return.
article =Queen Clarissa of [[Perdan]] has publicly revealed the terms of a treaty that would at last bring peace to Perdan. The revelation of the treaty, however, was met with much debate and dissent among the nobles of Perdan. Many nobles of Perdan are calling the terms of the treaty unacceptable. The resulting heated debate led to a series of public protests against the Queen. Many nobles feel that the treaty wold leave Perdan without sufficient food to feed our citizens, defenseless, and at the mercy of our enemies. They also feel that we cannot trust our enemies to hold to the terms of the treaty. Supporters of the treaty feel that the impending entry of [[Light of Fountain]] in the war, and a possible attack by [[Yssaria]] once their war with [[Caligus]] ends, will result in the complete destruction of Perdan.
 
  
According to the terms of the proposed treaty, Perdan would transfer [[East Continent/Partora|Partora]], [[East Continent/Mulhouse|Mulhouse]], and [[East Continent/Meuse|Meuse]] to Caligus, and [[East Continent/Montauban|Montauban]] and [[East Continent/Beziers|Beziers]] to [[Ibladesh]]. Caligus would transfer [[East Continent/Domus|Domus]] and [[East Continent/Scio|Scio]] to Yssaria. Perdan and Caligus together would pay 12,000 gold in reparations to Ibladesh.
+
Following a series of battles and TOs, Fontan has now reduced Light of Fountain to a single region: Their capital in [[Akesh Temple]]. Fontan is also currently in uncontested possession of Akesh Temple, with Light of Fountain having no military forces left at all. It will only be a matter of time, days perhaps, before Fontan completes eliminates the realm that seceded from them nearly two years ago.}}

date =September 18, 2006|

|article=Word has recently reached us that [[Caligus]] has retaken control of the city of [[Domus]]. This momentous event will surely allow Caligus to prosecute their war on Yssaria with much greater ease.}}
headline =Light of Fountain Plots Attack on Caligus and Perdan!|
 
article =Recently revealed secret documents point to an imminent attack by [[Light of Fountain]] on both [[Caligus]] and [[Perdan]]! A pamphlet recently discovered being circulated through Perdan and Partora reveals many damaging messages that were circulated at the very highest levels of the government of Light of Fountain. The documents show how the leaders of Light of Fountain plan to attack Caligus and Perdan solely for the chance to make some quick territorial gains, while risking little. These documents clearly show that the Light of Fountain government is little more than a band of opportunistic vultures. We here at the Rampant Lion are making these documents available to the public so that you can read them yourself, and see how dishonorable they are.

headline =Secession in the [[Kalmar Islands]]|
 
article =In a long anticipated move, One Rogala, cousin of the infamous rebel and tyrant El Cid Rogala, has seceded [[East Continent/Kalmar|Kalmar city]] from the [[Kalmar Islands]] to create a new realm. The new realm adopted the name [[Avamar Selective]]. It will be based on some as yet unknown religious principles, with One Rogala as the Pontifex.
 
 
 
The [[The Kalmarian Chronicles/Edition:10|Kalmarian Chronicles]], the newspaper of the Kalmar Islands, reported the possibility of this secession nearly three weeks ago. The reasons for the secession are strange, to say the least. The Avamarians have already gotten their realm when they overthrew the previous monarchy of the Kalmar Islands. Now they have split the realm in two. How they expect the tiny new realm to survive is unclear. Avamar Selective is a realm of three regions, and barely more than 5000 citizens. Will this infant realm even be able to defend themselves from monsters? What will they do when the [[Old Rancagua]]ns invade, as they are sure to do. Given the recent string of military failures by Old Rancagua, though, that may not be much of a concern.
 
 
 
''Update--As expected, [[Old Rancagua]] has declared war on the newly formed [[Avamar Selective]].}}

headline =Old Rancaguan Invasion Fails|
 
article =In a move that has long been expected, the army of [[Old Rancagua]] has launched an invasion of the [[Kalmar Islands]]. What was not expected, however, was the crushing defeat of the Old Rancaguan army. It seems that the Old Rancaguan army was having problems coordinating the movement of their forces, resulting in the attackers arriving in piecemeal, instead of in a massed attack. The first wave of Old Rancaguan attackers was met with more than twice their number in defenders.
 
 
 
With the initial wave of attackers rapidly vanquished, the defending Kalmarians sent even more defenders to the shores of [[East Continent/Stora|Stora]]. It is not yet clear why the Old Rancaguans continued on with the attack in a second wave. They were clearly outnumbered, and had no hope of victory. The second wave mustered only slightly more attackers than the first, but the defenders summoned even more reinforcements. The second wave was also outnumbered, and the Old Rancaguans received a second bitter defeat.
 
 
 
This is becoming a disturbing trend for Old Rancgua. They have been routinely beaten by a smaller, poorer realm. Is it a lack of coordination? Lack of motivation? Lack of combat experience?}}

article = In two very sad days for [[Perdan]], Lord Rattler, count of Dimwood, was killed in action while fighting in [[East Continent/Bescanon|Bescanon]]. He was a gentle, quiet, but generous man, and all he wanted to do was show his families fighting blood to all realms.
 
 
 
But, that isn't the only loss we mourn, for two more knights have died. Gloin, and Pete of the. They were both fantastic nobles of Perdan with undying loyalty to the realm. They will be sorely missed. Fingers have already been pointed at Nobles who did not move. Of course this is a reason for Rattlers, Gloin and Pete of the's terrible losses. But one shouldn't be so quick to pick out his friend, instead he should look out with hate at the enemy. We killed two [[Fontan]]ese heroes, and they take three. How many more lives will be taken before this war ends?

TRL Header.png


In every land, in every age, there are always tyrants that will prey on those who are weaker than themselves. Given free reign, they will spread their lies across the land. They build empires on a foundation of deceit, manipulation, and boundless ambition. Left unchecked these tyrants will devastate East Island, and all it's inhabitants, in wars without end. The Kingdom of Perdan will not stand idly by while the East Island is led into ruin and destruction. The Rampant Lion will stand forth as a beacon of truth regarding the travails of Perdan as it seeks to oppose those who would bring destruction upon our lands. As events in Perdan unfold, they will be chronicled here so all people on the East Island have access to an accurate, fair accounting of the events taking place in our world.
The only thing necessary
for the triumph [of evil]
is for good men to do nothing.

Ashforth Sacked
At the same time that Fontan has been taking control of the capital of Light of Fountain, they have also been fiercely attacking Old Rancagua. While successfully attacking and defeating the Old Rancaguan army, the Fontanese army has been plundering the Old Rancaguan capital city of Ashforth. Fontan's simultaneous military accomplishments against Sirion, Old Rancagua, and Light of Fountain have been extremely successful.

Light of Fountain Is No More
Fontan has captured the stronghold of Akesh Temple, the capital of Light of Fountain. This brings an end to the theocracy of Light of Fountain.

Itorunt Nobles Tortured and Executed
Two days ago Sir Geoffrey, a noble of Itorunt, was executed by Sir Eleran Perfect II, judge of Tuchanon V. This follows closely on the heels of the execution of Itoruntian noble Sir Olorin at the hands of Sir Lothar of Ubent. Both realms had non-execution agreements with Itorunt at the time. Both judges also claimed that they were new to the office of judge, and were not aware of any such agreement. Sir Eleran not only stated that he did not know of any agreement, but that it did not matter if a prior judge of Tuchanon V had made such an agreement, as the agreement was not made with him. Sir Eleran's statement regarding the matter was extremely confused: "Itorunt and Tuchanon V do not have any agreements. Itorunt may have one with Tuchanon V, but I do not have one with Itorunt."

Sir Geoffrey was also repeatedly tortured only 10 days ago by Sir Rackir, also of Tuchanon V. When questioned about the events, Sir Rackir replied that since he was incapable of defending his lands militarily, that he "..will make their nobles pay...". This tactic is reminiscent of the tactics of those employed by the Avamarian occupational government of the Kalmar Islands against the liberating army of Perdan. These tactics backfired against the Avamarians in the Islands, and they will no doubt backfire against the Tuchanons as well. Such desperate brutality only engenders hatred and resentment against those who employ it.

Light of Fountain On Its Last Legs
Despite being caught in a war against four enemies, Fontan has shown great military acumen in prosecuting the war. They have held off assaults by Sirion, Old Rancagua, Obsidian Islands, and Light of Fountain. Not only that, they have managed to gain territory despite the number of enemies they have faced. Fontan has taken control of Poitiers from Old Rancagua, and Tokat and Sordidus from Light of Fountain. Although they lost control of Montijo to Sirion for a short while, they took control of the region of Oberndorf away from Sirion in return.

Following a series of battles and TOs, Fontan has now reduced Light of Fountain to a single region: Their capital in Akesh Temple. Fontan is also currently in uncontested possession of Akesh Temple, with Light of Fountain having no military forces left at all. It will only be a matter of time, days perhaps, before Fontan completes eliminates the realm that seceded from them nearly two years ago.
