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    January 6, 2007    Perdan and Itorunt March to War! The armies of Perdan and Itorunt have joined together and sailed to war! Yesterday morning, the armies of both of the realms put to sea from the Perdan Mines for Venas. The expeditionary force is ultimately bound for the realm of Kalmar Islands to liberate it from the occupying government. Resistance is already being met in the form of infiltrator activity delaying travel. With the long travel times across the islands, it remains to be see how much of an effect this will have on the invasion forces. As expected, the defenders have decided to retreat behind the walls of Chaos Temple and await the assault. This is typical of the tactics used by Kalmar Islands and Avamar Selective against the invasion forces of Old Rancagua, Sirion, and Fontan. It will take much work from the Marshals of the invasion force to coordinate the arrival times of the multitude of troops. But if it can be done properly, the attackers should have no trouble overwhelming the defenders. Update: January 7, Perdan has declared war on the Kalmar Islands.		The News January 10, 2007 Avamar Selective has declared war on Sirion. January 9, 2007 Kalmar Islands has declared war on Itorunt. Avamar Selective has declared war on Fontan. January 7, 2007 Perdan has declared war on Kalmar Islands.
