| | + | |headline= Itorunt Nobles Tortured and Executed |
| | + | |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."'' |

| − | My friends, I bid you Aideu.
| + | 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.}} |

| | + | |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. |

| + | 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.}} |

The new realm, under the leadership of Sir Shady of Old Rancagua, will be known under the name of the [[Obsidian Islands]]. Many nobles from both Perdan and Old Rancagua will join the new realm as a renewed sign of dedication between Perdan and Old Rancagua to peace and prosperity for both realms, and their new colony. The formation of the Obsidian Islands will be the culmination and fulfillment of the promise made by Queen Lorraine of Perdan and King Dekion of Old Rancagua to remove the rebels who had infested the small island realm, and restore the lawful government to the islands.}} | + | {{Template:TattleRight| |

| − | Increasingly we are seeing more and more conflict take place at tournaments. What is supposed to be a peaceful gathering of celebration, has become a place to vent frustrations that would usually take place on a battlefield. The reason for this could be nobles wishing to start conflict, or perhaps the value of a tournament has lost its meaning with tournies being thrown regularly for no other reason than as a profit making device and a distraction for bored nobles.

| |
| − | <b>What are important qualities for a newspaper reporter?</b>
| |
| − | Dedication and objectivity. You have to write consistently, or nobody will read your paper. If you write regularly and objectively, people will come to trust your paper for accurate, timely reporting of the latest news. Of course, each paper will have a slight bias towards its own realm, but that's natural.
| |
| − | | |
| − | <b>Is it braver to tackle topical issues or to ignore them?</b>
| |
| − | Well, it really depends. It's important to get the facts out about important issues, but one must also know when to stop fueling the controversy. What you want is an objective and accurate assessment of the situation.
| |
| − | | |
| − | <b>As a reporter, if you disagree with the stance of your realm, is it inappropriate to publicize this?</b>
| |
| − | Usually, yes. Your loyalty to the realm should be greater than your loyalty to the paper. However, if you feel that the realm is being ruled or controlled unjustly
| |
| − | | |
| − | <b>What are your thoughts on the Fontan vs LoF war?</b>
| |
| − | I personally don't feel that strongly for either realm. True, it has been mentioned that Fontan is reneging on the previous peace treaty and simply trying to take back land long lost to them. It seems that Fontan believes Light of Fountain broke a different treaty. In any case, the conflict is limited to those two realms and doesn't really affect me or the realm of Itorunt. Many people feel strongly for one realm of the other, but I'm pretty neutral on the issue.
| |
| − | | |
| − | <b>Should the war remain between these two realms?</b>
| |
| − | Yes, because this is a simple conflict between those two realms over disagreements in the past about the creation of Light of Fountain and subsequent treaties. There is no need for other realms to get involved.
| |
| − | | |
| − | <b>What are your thoughts of Duke Robert's warning to Ibladesh?</b>
| |
| − | It is a reasonable warning. These words echo the fears of many that such devastation as the Avamarians have brought in the past will occur at the hands of one of our closest allies, Ibladesh. Sorcha's comments on the matter reassure me somewhat, but I still fear for the future of the alliance between our two realms.

Has the good word of Ibladesh encouraged them to change their habits or will Duke Robert's prediction come to pass? Is the future of Ibladesh destined to be consumed by rebellions and mischief because of those to which they've shown compassion? Only time will tell.

| |
| − | article= Merely moments after her election, Chancellor Lilith dropped diplomatic relations with Light of Fountain to war. So I thought I would try to uncover the most asked question, why is Fontan warring Light of Fountain? I have asked around to uncover this answer, but I can't say it is any clearer. | |
| | | | |
| − | Firstly, Chancellor Lilith proclaims that Light of Fountain is not a legitimate realm. That they betrayed the mother realm through secession. What was Fontan thinking therefore when it signed a peace treaty with Light of Fountain? By doing this they gave validity to the realm of Light of Fountain by entering negotiations and signing the treaty that was to bring forth a friendship between the realms.

| | | | |
| − | Second possible reason, the unexplained attacks across the LoF/Fontan border on murderous settings. Seems Fontan held a referendum on whether they should declare war for this reason, which returned a resounding, almost unanimous 'yes'. Are a few unordered skirmishes the reason for destroying Light of Fountain? Maybe more palpable.
| + | [[Ibladesh]] has taken control of [[Zawr]] from [[Itorunt]]. |
| | | | |
| − | Thirdly, this one was apparently handed to Chancellor Lilith by a helpful ruler. Could it be that they need a new city to finally fulfill their promise of founding New Coimbra? Nice afterthought, but an ironic reasoning to destroy a realm in order to resurrect one.

| − | Now... the fourth reason I have had suggested. Fontan is bored, Fontan wants to broaden its already expansive borders and Light of Fountain is a weaker opponent. Muttered by most of the continent already, could this be the truth of the matter?

| | | | |
| − | Sixth, and can they get any more absurd? The ex-Avamarian influence in Light of Fountain is enough reason for Fontan to war Light of Fountain. Even trying to ignore the fact that Fontan entered into discussions for a defensive alliance with Donna Ragna when she was Chancellor of KI AND ignoring the fact that Fontan offered them sanctuary after the destruction of their illegitimate realm on the islands.([[Talk:The Rampant Lion|1]]) Ignoring both these facts in which Fontan have extended friendship to the ex-islanders, there is also the point that only 8 LoF nobles are from the usurping realms. The rest of LoF are honourable nobles, who have upheld and honoured a treaty signed with their mother realm. So this is surely not the reason.
