ContentsCURRENT AFFAIRSWar on the IslandsOn November 15th Prime Minister Handow lowered relations with the Kalmar Islands down to Neutral...and on November the 16th, Sirion's Army will have set foot in Stora for the first time--ever. If KI and AS weren't allies, Sirion probably wouldn't of had to lower relations with KI, but the Avamar Selective is a realm that should not be resurrected--or the Sirionites will be there to crush them every step of the way. Once you swear to weaken Sirion, and choose war to the death in lieu of anything else...you get death, forever. -Doc UpdatePrime Minister Handow issued an Official statement regarding our change in diplomacy: "Even though Kalmar Island wants their regions back from Avamar Selective they defend them. Since Kalmar Island wants to keep supporting Avamar Selective and not withdrawn from Avamar Selective then our relationship with them has been lowered." Contradictions run deep on those dark Islands...but Sirion must do what she must do. Keep up the good work, Prime Minister Handow! -Doc 2nd Update6kCS of allied troops have been wasted on Stora...folks that arrived WAY too early. Their casualties were absolute, and their effectiveness virtually nill. As it stands, the upcoming battle is going to be quite a challenge. The Avamarians have managed to raise a HUGE army, unlike any that realms with twice their income can raise on their own...we only pray that this siege of the AS will be over before Christmas. If Perdan were to aid us in this endeavour sooner than later, we will surely, be finished by Christmas. -Doc Allied victory in Stora!!Despite all the forces the allies sacrificed in the name of personal ineptitude at a micro-level--ie particular citizens mistakenly arriving too early for whatever reasons--they were victorious and crushed the defending forces. I knew that victory was inevitable in Stora...I smelled the Angel of Death fly by with her Minions...and she left me a black rose with a small note attached: "Thank you for keeping me busy" she wrote, and then she said "P.S. that cough of yours is music to my ears, but worry not, you will smile wide today and live to see why." I think death is hitting on me already...but I guess that is normal for old men my age. Keep strong, Sirionites, and drive the Avamarians to the ground--again--so that an uninterrupted peace may reign on this Island yet. -Doc Offer the Avamarians a 'place to call their own' in Skezard?Several nobles--perhaps just rambling about an impossible possibility--have suggested that Sirion offer the Avamarians a place of isolation in Skezard. I personally do not feel it is feasible for a number of reasons, but cutting to the chase, I doubt that the Avamarians would be happy with a place to truely call their own. The nobles of Avamar are not a peace loving nation, they always cite how cultural they are, and how they have interests in the arts, and the such...but when it boils down to it, the Avamarians are a chaotic people. They enjoy creating struggles, inciting wars, and inviting conflict. Would the Avamarians be happy in Skezard? Could they ever learn to settle, and pursue their interests...or will their thirst for violence and bloodshed prove too overwhelming--again? Maybe Handow can ask their Pontifex. -Doc
Fortification upgraded in SlimbarIn a small ceremony today, Duke Boom Boom placed the final stone on Slimbar's newly built level 4 fortification. Construction on the stronghold took months to complete, but it was worth the effort. The city will be able to resist invasion by the deadly forest squirrels from now on. -Adrian |
