The Rampant Lion

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. - Edmund Burke (attrib.)

Commentary    December 14, 2006    Region Transfers Complete With the recent transfer of Lorient to Ibladesh, Perdan has completed its share of the treaty obligations. The last remaining articles of the treaty that are not yet completed are the transfers of Domus and Scio from Caligus to Yssaria. Once those are completed, then all treaty terms will be fulfilled.    December 10, 2006    Rebellion in Old Rancagua Fails! It seems that the Loyalist forces in Old Rancagua have managed to fight off the rebels, and retained control of the government. In an odd twist of fate, several of the rebels were struck down by the gods with massive bolts of lightning. The priests declared that the gods were angry with those struck down for their actions leading to the rebellion, and for their motivations in rebelling. With many rebels struck down by the gods themselves, the few remaining rebels were no match for the loyalists.    December 8, 2006    Rebellion in Old Rancagua! Rhargec, a noble of Old Rancagua has called for a rebellion against King Dekion and the ruling council of Old Rancagua. Rhargec claims to be the grandson of Charger, a noble who himself lead a rebellion against the government of Old Rancagua. Apparently rebellion runs in the family. Whatver the reason for the rebellion, Rhargec's timing was impeccable. The Old Rancaguan army is currently in Stora, invading Avamar Selective. It will take nearly four days for the Old Rancaguan army to march back to Ashforth. By then, the rebellion will be long over, one way or another.    December 7, 2006    Region Transfer to Caligus Complete Today Queen Evangeline has transferred the city of Partora to the control of Caligus. This marks the third and final region transfer from Perdan to Caligus, completing that portion of our treaty obligations. Perdan has now transferred Meuse, Mulhouse, and Partora to Caligus, and received Nascot. With the completion of the region transfers to Caligus, Caligus can now begin transferring regions to Yssaria, starting with Domus and then Scio. There is now only one region transfer left before Perdan has fulfilled the final term of the peace treaty, that being the transfer of Lorient to Ibladesh.    December 1, 2006    Fontan joins the war Fontan has indicated it intentions to join the war with OR and Sirion against Avamar Selective.
