Military Career
Aeryn began her military career as a late-comer to the war between Carelia and the Cagilan Empire. She fought at the Battle of Craigmore (July 7th, 12485 vs 1254), the Battle of Ledunds (July 8th, 9873 vs 1575) and the Battle of Alcatil (July 9th, 5435 vs 1687), each under the banners of Sir Grand Poopah, Marquis of Webgard, Marshal of the army of Stoneville. In the Battle of Alcatil, one of Aeryn's men perished as a result of his wounds. It was the first time someone died under the command of Aeryn, but it would not be the last.
War Against Ash Sea Islands
When Ash Sea Islands initiated the "Blitzkrieg Conspiracy" against Abington, Aeryn was in Tandsu defended RedSpan's new region from Tara. She immediately began the long journey home to defend her own realm. However, Ash Sea Islands had acquired a large number of allies, including Minas Ithil and Talerium. The first battle of this new war was in Lurgrod on July 22nd (8533 vs. 1028) where Aeryn fought under the banner of Mikhail Sergei, but the most remarkable battles of Aeryn's military career were yet to come.
==== The Battle of Wayburg ==== (46960 vs 4773)
On July 24th, Abington forces marched on Wayburg to counter the new Minas Ithil colony, which was jointly defended by MI and Talerium. Abington was outnumbered nearly 3 to 1, but the battle was a victory nonetheless. Under unique diplomatic relations, MI and Talerium forces were persuaded to turn against their colony. As a result, the forces were weighed heavily in favor of Abington and MI troops fought against their brethren MI colonists. Aeryn squeezed through the overcrowded siege engines and broke through the frontlines, inflicting many hits on the colonists.
==== The Battle of Sudfern ==== (21070 vs 18860)
On July 27th, after having defended Stoneville from Minas Ithil forces (14889 vs. 1248) who had been looting the surround regions (including murdering and raping), Aeryn marched to Sudfern where she encountered more Talerium forces. Aeryn was wounded and her unit was wiped out after being surrounded by enemy forces during the 3 hour conflict. It was not the last time during this war that Aeryn's unit would be wiped out, but Sudfern was by far the most brutal battle Aeryn fought.
The Kybcyell Takeover
After refitting in Riverholm, Aeryn volunteered for a secret mission led by Mikhail Sergei, the Marshall of the Army of Suville. Ash Sea Islands were sending reinforcements to Kybcyell, the Minas Ithil colony, in an attempt to disrupt Abington's takeover of Wayburg. Aeryn and the other volunteer nobles followed the ASI forces, attacking the slower units and weakening the overall combat strength of Kybcyell's allies. After fighting several small battles, Aeryn arrived in Wayburg, but it was too late. The reinforcements were wiped out, but the takeover attempt failed.
Political Career
While still in Wayburg, preparing for Abington's second attempt at a takeover of Wayburg, Aeryn received a letter from her Duchess Callisto, Royal Treasurer of Abington, to meet her in Suville. Once she was granted leave by High Marshall Xuanye, Aeryn met Callisto in Suville from where she was escorted to Washford, and on August 11th, Aeryn was appointed the Countess of Washford.
Advancement
Aeryn was appointed the Countess of Washford after only 47 days from accepting the responsibilities of nobility. Of the all current lords of Abington, only Karas was granted lordship more quickly (48 days after becoming a noble, but only 40 after joining Abington). Currently, Abington's Top 5 in Political Celerity are
- Karas (40 Days)
- Aeryn (47 Days)
- Callisto (51 Days)
- Gabriel (56 Days)
- Magnus the Mighty (64 Days)
These notable nobles are also the only Abington's who were appointed to lordship in less than 100 days, the 6th being Askelus with 119 days. The average length of time it takes to become a lord in Abington is 242 (if ever).
