War!

April 11, 2006- War! Taith Aenil have refused to stay out of matters which do not concern them and entered the war. Time will only tell if whether this has been a good move or a mistake. However, with both his allies pressed from internal and external pressures, he might be a little alone out there....

Arcaea without a King!

April 11, 2006- Yarah has stepped down and looks to be suicidal! It is unfortunate, for he was once a mighty ruler, but now has fallen into despair, for he has become arrogant of late and refuses to keep his Nobles in line. Good luck Yarah, let us hope that the new King of Arcaea is up to the task, for he has much to do! Let's hope its not Gunfire, for that would herald the destruction of the realm, if he's that offensive when an Arch-Priest, what will he be like when he's a ruler!

Victory!

April 10, 2006- Arcaea has failed to meet the requirements of the reparations which Osric placed to force Arcaea to see reason and begin to act like a realm of Nobles once again. As nightfall descended the Main Ethialan army under the direction of Lancelot, High Marshal of Ethiala and command of Luyten and Ryft, Marshal's of Topenah and Talex respectively, occupied the region of Lantzas in fulfilment of the terms laid down by Osric 10 days previously.

Here is a report of the battle as written by Xarnelf, the Haruspex Maximus of Taith Aenil. Told from TA's perspective mind you, but it will do, I can't be bothered to come up with something myself: Battle Report, Lantzas

Tournament in Masahakhon

April 9, 2006- This promises to be a great event, although shadowed by the secession of Palnasos from Svunnetland into the realm of Ragnaron and the recent unpleasantness in the north between all of the realms which occupy the lands up here. Known Ethialans to be competing will Valion and Thrasymaque. Thrasymaque, the last tournament's joust champion, is Ethiala's greatest hope for gold and fame, he carries the hopes of us all. Good Luck Valion and Thrasymaque!

Scandal!

April 9, 2006- As some of you may or may not have heard, Arcaea has only very recently committed a heinous attrocity in the near execution of the Lady Jacqueline, a former Ethialan and the beloved of Osric, King of Ethiala. Surrounding this murderous event Osric demanded reparations in the form of 1000 gold from Yarah for his Arch-Priest's misdeeds. However, believing his request to be excessive he reduced it to 200 gold to be delivered to Topenah within 5 days and an immediate public apology from Gunfire, the Arch-Priest of Arcaea.

However the isolent fellow practically threw the laxness of the reparations in our Lord's face and has single handedly ruined all the months of hard work towards a possible alliance we worked for. He has insulted our King, our Senate, our Lords and our Nobles with his vain foolishness. It may be time for something to be done....

Secession!

April 9, 2006- Well, unfortunately this reporter does not have much to give about this issue, it seems to be a very southern Far East issue. About all I can tell you is that the ruler is not too right in the head and has practically declared war on every realm in the Far East! However, the Principality of Zonasa and the remnant of Svunnetland will probably have some strong words to say concerning the realm's existence. The Principality has already taken Tunozo from them, which makes the old Principality whole again I believe. Zhao Ziyang's fight has been realised, however he is not here to see it, will report more as the information reaches me.

The Ethialan Press!

April 9, 2006- Well, the time has come! Ethiala finally has a newspaper of her own! I grew tired of outdated accounts of the goings on in the Far East and I thought that Ethiala could use a newspaper, to tell everyone about us! So here goes...
