=='''ASH'RILY FALLS'''==
+
2003-06-21 - Armitage III - Elected as ruler in Abington with the promise to save Abington from destructions
−
In the third assault upon the doomed city, Abington and her allies broke the walls and marched triumphantly into the city beneath the flutter of the banners of dozens, if not hundreds of noble houses. Although a Minas Ithil and Islander force nearby hopes to recapture the city or otherwise deter it's fate, it seems likely that the combined might of Abington, Redspan and Carelia will hold the city despite the destruction of it's outer walls. Uncomfirmed reports also state that an Ash Sea Islands infiltrator unsuccessfully attempted, yet again, to assassinate Drago, Marshal of the Army of Wor'ight, but whether this action was authorized by the Islander leaders remains to be seen.
 
  
−
=='''MINAS ITHIL JOINS THE WAR'''==
+
*[[Abington Account/June2003|June 2003]] - June to August Abington fight to regain all its lost regions back from Antioch.
−
As the Battle for the Ash Sea Island drags on, with thousands of casualties on both sides, the dubious and enigmatic forces of Minas Ithil, initially claiming to be protecting Ashlantean homeland, have advanced into contested territories in Lerss and Veshin, and have engaged in open conflict with forces of Abington.
 
−
As War with Minas Ithil seems likely, more and more nobles have chimed in support for a total destruction of Ash Sea Islands.
 
−
"We could take Ser'quea. It would end this war alot quicker." said one Noble.
 
  
−
With the matryrdom of fallen Abington noble [[Feldric]], talk has begun of forming a new religious cult that will give Abington the faith it needs to destroy their foes. Currently discussions are on about adopting the Drachenwalden worship of the Great Dragon, or of perhaps inventing a new faith with Feldric as its chief saint.
+
*[[Abington Account/December2003|January 2003]] - Abington that the island state of ASI for the first time.
  
−
The Influx of new troop leaders is also a concern and a joy for Abington officials, who are eager to mobilize their vast resources and tap the full potential of this crop of young nobles.
+
*[[Abington Account/May2004|May 2004]] - Queen Armitage III of D'Anglos decides is down from rulership over the Realm of Abington.
  
−
=='''WAR WITH ASH SEA ISLANDS!'''==
+
====During the Reign of King Drago====
−
In a Disturbing and unfortunate twist, The Realm of Abington is now at war with long time ally, the Ash Sea Islands.
 
−
"This conflict, according to sources within and without the Abington Government, appears to be about demands made by the Ruler of the ASI Realm, who wishes to claim Worav and Wor'ight, based on a treaty that was rendered null and void over a year ago." said Ulric(23), Count of Werdham and Marshall of the army of Suville.
 
−
"I personally didn't want this war, and argued hard against it. However, it seems diplomacy failed, and now we are taking back the entire ASI, so as to punish the government for its greed, and to ensure we have a buffer zone to prevent further ASI aggression."
 
−
ASI will likely be offered terms once the rapid Blitzkrieg of the Ash Sea Island is complete, and Veshin and Ash'rily have once again been returned to Abington.
 
−
In other News, King Gabriel plans on stepping down have been confirmed, and after the war it is highly likely that he will resign as Monarch of this realm, and allow the people to choose a new one. Carriantor and Elantus, both highly respected Lords of Abington, are the main candidates.

2004-5-19                      Drago is elected King of Abington

==Suville Reunited with the Realm!==
+
====During the Reign of King Gabriel====
−
After weeks of labor and toil on the part of the huge Abington Taskforce, the City of Suville is now firmly in the hands of the people of Abington.
 
−
King Gabriel has confirmed this so in a historic speech, and promised that there "will be a tournament after Darkas". Darka's Impending tournament is likely to prove adequate entertainment for many of our nobles untill then!
 
−
As it stands, Suville still has a long way to go before it reaches its full shining glory. But now the City is stable, the vast armies of Abington can be allocated elsewhere, and her Nobles can devote themselves to forthcoming challenges.
 
−
In other news, Lady Doc's Biatch has beaten would-be Dueling Champion Ferber, although she has refused to claim any titles, claiming to be searching for descendants of her homeland's wargod.
 
−
Villeways Restaurant in Suville is set to be the refined counterpart of Wor'ight's Dragon Reborn Inn, and caters to a similar clientele- that of nobles passing through. However, Villeways is also great for Courting and special functions, and we do birthdays,romantic dinners and business meals.

King Gabriel, in his desire to fulfill the needs and wishes of the nobles of Abington, has organized the Royal Court and Council of the People into a cooperative, democratic body to promote the welfare of the Kingdom. The Council itself consists of the three Ministers of the People, who combined have one vote; the Royal Court, in addition, includes the Grand Justiciar, with two votes, the King with one vote and the Minister of Law and Order with another vote. To legislate, argue, debate, and ultimately agree on various matters, including the welcoming of new and young nobles (and incouragement of [[Roleplaying]]).

The new [[The_Southern_Handshake_Treaty|Treaty]] between Carelia, Abington and RedSpan places Cummaol, Arblane and Tarkhog within the hands of the Southern Alliance, while allowing Scarbran to remain in Carelia's hands. The King's word is now law, and the People's Ministry wholeheartedly supports this new development, which will see a period of ten weeks of peaceful relations between the mentioned realms.

Reports in the south tell that Scarbran, recently conquered by Abington, is now lost again after the remnants of the Northern Alliance attacked the region after the mighty Abington army left, incidentally violating a truce agreement the Cagilan Empire had made with Abington. As well, Kilbranba was attacked by the CE forces.
+
====The Republic of Abington====
  
−
Abington nobles are outraged, though not surprised, at the inability of the so-called Empire to maintain it's word. Lady Callisto of Abington had this to say: "The Cagilan Empire has broken their word... time to kick their teeth in." Sir Ausliva of Swanfolk echoed this view. "Abingtonians! Wake up are prepare war towards those Chaotic evil scum! for this moment, we will not continue our journey to our homeland, but will return to the battlefield once more time!"

Nevertheless, Abington leadership is confident that this setback will be reversed. Northern Alliance forces are suspected of having ambitions of launching another invasion of Abington or allied RedSpan, but are considered likely to regret such actions.

==Battle in Scarbran, Abington Victorious==
 
−
 
 
−
Just three days and nine hours ago (at time of this printing), the forces of once-proud [[Carelia]] waged a mighty battle to prevent the takeover of Scarbran by the Kingdom of [[Abington]], and lost. Gauihu of Abington tells his account.
 
−
 
 
−
"It was a very calm and mild winter's day as the troops from Abington set up defenses. Baron Carriantor, Marshal of the Army of Wayburg, took command of the 29 Abington noble troopleaders and their 1,329 soldiers as the expected Carelian counter-attack came. Like the defending southerners the Carelians relied more on infantry than archers, but were distinctly outnumbered with but 756 men on the field. Carelian mixed infantry, once able to swing the tide of battle in their favor in some earlier battles with the Southern Alliance, provided no such service on this day.
 
−
 
 
−
"The mighty infantry wall of Abington broke ranks as three eager nobles set out to meet the attackers. Leah of Abington and Leonidas of Carelia were wounded in the melee while ten banners of Abington marked the joining of battle like gravestones. But it was Carelia's ambitions who were buried, as the feared cavalry arm crashed into the ranks of their infantry and decimated their own horsemen. Feldric's Legionary Cavalry made a name for themselves as did all Abington; the army of Wayburg advanced like a mobile castle laying siege to the attackers. Cymoril of Carelia was seriously wounded, and yet more banners of Abington rose over the field just as Carelian conscripts lay fallen in the cold soil of Scarbran.
 
−
 
 
−
"Broken, the Imperial army retreated and then routed before the advancing wrath of Gabriel's will."
 
−
 
 
−
Nobles also wounded during the glorious battle included Night Elf, Countess of Taree, Halden, Count of Canock, Aramil, and Arch-Priest of Carelia and Duke of Stormbran; all of Carelia.
 
−
 
 
−
Deschain of Abington, Count of Tarkhog, had this to say of the battle. "What a fine and proper battle; it is rare these days that two armys can clash and produce the type of battle that is heard of across the continent."
 
−
 
 
−
Twelve hours after the battle, Sir Kronos, the King of Carelia, alone attempted a brave attack on the Abington occupiers, and like his men was quickly captured and imprisoned.
 
−
 
 
−
Scarbran is now a province of Abington.
