|title = | |title =Valentia to Collapse Soon | ||
|date =26st October 2007 | |||
|article = Currently, the theorcratic northern state of [[Valentia]] is in turmoil. The Justice of Valentia, Lord Kerrigan announced that his realm is under siege from within by the [[Servants|Jarbosh]] Cult. The Jarbosh Cult is a secretive, radical, cannibalistic society that has scattered membership across the continents. Lord Kerrigan also claims that Reston II, former Duke of [[Beluaterra/Unger|Unger]] is both a cultist, and purposely allowed his city to fall to rebellion. Kerrigan also makes claims about the Valentian Pontifex Quillen criticizing him for making too many enemies. Because of this, Justice Kerrigan has banished a large number of Valentian nobles. | |||
Quillen responded by accusing Kerrigan of being a saboteur, who will soon deliver all of Valentia's territory to neighboring [[Melhed]]. | |||
The banishments Kerrigan announced were for a large range of reasons from : <i>"You are hereby banned for making KOKOMARO TALK IN MY HEAD.... MAKE IT STOP NOW!!!!</i> to <i>"You are banned for the following reasons three:You were seen on friday with a full stuffed carp down your tunic. You have not helped in the destruction of the realm like Reston II told you and you did not...</i> | |||
Very odd. (As an aside, Kerrigan of Valentia is a good example of Theory of S.I.M.) | |||
Both Quillen and Kerrigan believe the other is trying to destroy Valentia, so if both sides agree on that, it's fairly certain Valentia will cease to exist very soon. | |||

|title =Portal Closes: Daimon King is Outraged | |||
|date =21st October 2007 | |||
|article =Today, another group of brave, bold adventurers defied the Daimons by sealing the portal between this world and the Netherworld. On the highest peak in the [[Beluaterra/Zisswii|Zisswii Range]], [[Vlaanderen]] eight adventurers formed a circle of mythical portal stones which rose above the sky, closing the gate. This will certainly make it more difficult for King Arcane to bolster the armies of Vlaanderen with more Daimons. The King has responded to the action with fiery rhetoric and a zero-tolerance stance quote: | |||
{{Quotation| I want any and all adventurers in Zisswii and any surrounding regions arrested immediately. | |||
Judge, torture them all. Then check if they have seen the glory and are willing to serve without question. Kill everyone who doesn't. | |||
Except for that Phoebe. Don't touch her, she belongs to me. | |||
|Arcane, Daimonic King of Vlaanderen}} | |||
This creates an extremely dangerous scenario for the one Fronenian and multiple foreign freedom-fighters in and around the mountain. Luckily just north of Zisswii are the [[Ashborn]] mountains of [[Beluaterra/Ren Madragas|Ren Madragas]] and [[Beluaterra/Iknopata|Iknopata]]. Supreme Judge Zortagh of Ashborn has offered the adventurers sanctuary if they can get across the border. | |||
In King Arcane's letter he points out that the adventurer Phoebe of Riombara "belongs" to him. This reporter can't understand what makes Phoebe so special ((OOC: Actually I can but I'm fairly certain its OOC knowledge)) but she too can take shelter in nearby Ashborn. | |||

|title =Daimons and Divinity: A little kingdom starts acting big | |||
|date =19th October 2007 | |||
|article =Big news has been hitting Beluaterra recently. Dreadlord Arcane's uprising in [[Vlaanderen]] has succeeded. After first accepting the Daimon lord into their realm, and then giving him a land holding, the nobles of Vlaanderen are now, for better or worse, finding out that such actions have consequences. Reports show that Arcane has used his army of Daimons to storm the city of [[Beluaterra/Reeds|Reeds]], overwhelm the incumbent government of King Nymatal and begin a religious theocracy led by a sort of God-King. Obviously, THAT role was filled by Arcane himself. Immediately Arcane has begun flexing his new political muscle. | |||
{{Quotation|Fall silent now, for you are listening to a living god. | |||
Vlaanderen has turned into a realm of endless glory. We honour and respect our friends of old. | |||
Respect the living god now, and we can talk about our future together. | |||
|Arcane, Daimonic King of Vlaanderen}} | |||
This message, sent to the rulers of Beluaterra tries to impose the leader's will on all the rulers of Beluaterra, but Vlaanderen's neighbor, [[Khthon]] is in the greatest peril as a result of this. The [[Plergoth Press/Issue Eight|Plergoth Press]] is again printing articles after a two month hiatus. The articles have, for the most part discussed old news. Their last, and most current article though contained some fascinating information about how it appears the new Vlaandereni regime will treat its longtime friend and neighbor. It appears that Arcane is going to place troops on Khthonian soil unless Chancellor Fura of Khthon begs, bows and pleads for their removal. | |||
Khthon has been staunchly anti-Daimon in the past, so they probably will not bend to Arcane's will, however Khthon has overnight been thrust into a dangerous situation. | |||
Also of interest is the deposed King Nymatal's response to the religious rebellion that usurped control from him. Like Enzeru did in [[Fronen]] during [[Fronen Rebellion Jan 07/Summary|Black January]], Nymatal has apparently bowed to the rebel forces, accepting the Daimon as God-King, so much for worshipping [[Omniovoism|eggs]] eh? Whether this came about by his own free will or of some... other means ((OOC:The player of Arcane wrote the rp, not player of Nymatal)) is still unknown. | |||

|title =Daimons Degrade Diplomacy | |||
|date =16th October 2007 | |date =16th October 2007 | ||
|article =Although many human Beluaterran nations oppose and detest the Daimons, | |article =Although many human Beluaterran nations oppose and detest the Daimons, faithful readers of this newspaper should know that [[Sint]], [[Heen]], and [[Vlaanderen]] have declared armistice with the Daimons. Recently though, one of those Daimons alliance is tearing at the seams. Vlaanderen, after handing a region ([[Beluaterra/Zisswii|Zisswii]]) to the Daimon Dreadlord Arcane, and officially recognizing him as a noble of Vlaanderen, faces revolt. Arcane is now calling for rebellion against King Nymatal. Because of this, the king stripped the Dreadlord of his nobility and sent the creature into exile. However, King Nymatal may lack the military muscle to back up his decrees against Arcane. This rebellion likely means the end to the Vlaaanderen-Netherworld ceasefire. '''*EDIT*''' Arcane's revolt has succeeded, leaving nobles around the world wondering what this means and how it will impact the ongoing human-Daimon conflict. | ||
The Daimons are causing more trouble too by disrupting international human relations. Sint is taking orders from their gods which are Daimons who take the form of Dragons. The Sintians have conquered, on orders from "Hemaglobe," independent former [[Old Grehk]]ian territory and are now invading their longstanding rival, [[Ashborn]]. This belligerence is drawing new impassioned public criticism from King Dimian of [[Kingdom of Alluran|Alluran]]. | The Daimons are causing more trouble too by disrupting international human relations.

While it is highly unlikely that Bocephus would go so far out of his way for this duel, the stinging critique has helped turn public sentiment against the Daimon's human allies. Already the letter has convinced many [[Fronen]]ians to support an officiating an alliance with Alluran. Perhaps it will similarly affect other nations on the continent? | ||

|date =19th October 2007 | |||
|article =For whatever it's worth I shall soon restart the controversial opinion journal [[The Fronen Commentator]] principally because I've got a crazy theory to share with the world that is unbefitting of The Face of Fronen and it's rigid, "just the facts" style of reporting. Keep an eye out for it if you're interested or contact me, Grand Justiciar Alexius if you're interested in writing an editorial for the Commentator. | |||

|article =You know I was planning on writing a long article mocking Duke Reston of [[Beluaterra/Unger|Unger]] for losing his realm's ([[Valentia]]) capital city. Now as most of you have heard I no longer have a right to do that because my own city [[Beluaterra/Mhed|Mhed]] has revolted to [[Melhed]]. Principally the Mhedians were fed up with the Daimons and thought the Melhedes could protect them more effectively. Truth of the matter is neither realm can really protect them at the moment. [[Beluaterra/Wudenkin|Wudenkin]] is in a similar situation. Low stats, starvation (we're trying to keep food away from the Daimons you see) and the Daimons physical presence in the reasons means both cities will likely be out of Fronenian hands, for a short time anyway. How short? We don't know yet, but in Mhed's case, Grand Justiciar Bimbo of Melhed said "I absolutely agree [Melhed should return Mhed], We haven't enough nobles to control the city." That indicates that Fronen will probably get the region back sooner rather than later. | |article =You know I was planning on writing a long article mocking Duke Reston of [[Beluaterra/Unger|Unger]] for losing his realm's ([[Valentia]]) capital city.
