DISCLOSURE CURRENT AFFAIRSMost recent to oldest Breaking News: Daring Escape Just Before TortureInfiltrator Jun Hinamoto had just recently been caught by Sultanate of Asena forces, and was rotting in prison. Apparently their judge (Grand Vezir) had a special interest in him:
Fontan tortures Sir Dallian!The Elven Tribune is the first to deliver this troubling news. Word has reached us that Lady Gabriella Kinsey, Supreme Justice of Fontan, personally oversaw the torture of Sir Dallian Alumaani, one of the nobles of Sirion. This is very troubling and unexpected news. For instance, Fontan and Sirion had a long-time agreement that infiltrators would not be executed, and this was adhered to honorably for several years. So this is a very sudden change that now captured Sirion nobles will be tortured. Needless to say, this has caused quite a bit of anger among the Sirion nobility. While at one point many were considering reaching a peace agreement with Fontan, those days now seem long gone. Some reactions:
Sultanate of Asena crushed in CaquetaIn another series of inexplicable attacks, the Sultanate of Asena attacked Sirion the very next day despite being outnumbered and outclassed. Not surprisingly, they suffered a crushing defeat. Many of their nobles had been in the field a while, and no doubt will need to refit soon or risk their men deserting them. With many of them now wounded (it was truly a vicious battle), this could portend poorly for the Sultanate. - Sanford Fontan Suicidal?The attack on Nov 4th by Fontan on Montijo, a little more than 350 men vs Sirion's entrenched 800+ men, confused many Sirionites. One of the Marshals is overhead saying "Is that battle report real? Has the Fontanese military council finally been replaced with chimps?" - Sanford

Election ResultsThe results are in, and once again it was a landslide victory for the incumbents. Prime Minster Meristenzio Peristaltico gained 89% of the votes, and Judge Erik Eyolf gainted 63% of the votes. Of course it didn't help that one of the candidates said "You probably shouldn't vote for me". Asenian CourierWe note that the Sultanate of Asena has revived their newspaper, the Asenian Courier. The more news the better! However, we note with some amusement that Grand Vezir Leandros Galvez is apparently not well informed, as he accuses Sirion of raping their women. Not only has Sirion not raped Asenian women (as far as this reporter knows), but in fact the Sultanate of Asena has as recently as a few months ago repeatedly raped Sirion's women. We hope that the Asenian Courier will start fact-checking their articles... the last thing we need is yet more misinformation. - Sanford |
