Takeover of Salta completed

26 May 2008 (Salta) by Defterdar Katan Anthas, Baron of Gadlock

This evening, the peasantry of Salta finally began to hail the return of the Sultanate's governance. The takeover lasted for 4 days, and was the cause of the deaths of 67 peasants. the suppression of the peasant revolt here in Salta means that the borders of Asena are once again unified, instead of in three fractures, which is great cause to rejoice. Sultan Korkut will announce a new count for Salta shortly, with Lady Zekio Zephire expected to return to her domain.

Turmoil for the Defterdar

23 May 2008 (Gadlock) by Defterdar Katan Anthas, Baron of Gadlock

They say bad things happen in threes, in the events in just two days certainly prove it for myself. First, I had to deal with the loss of my brother, Sir Celad Anthas of Oligarch, a noble who had lost his life in a battle in Parm, fighting under the banner of Fontan. Then, as I was preparing for his burial at my manor in Gadlock, his grave site was looted by Kiera Telamon, a troop leader who was then part of the Obsidian Islands but has since been banned, and from the Sultanate of Asena as well. And to add insult to injury, on the day of my brother's funeral, the region of Salta declared its independence from Asena, leaving my betrothed, Countess Zekio Zephire without a home, with no real priority set in repressing the revolt, putting ideas into the heads of the peasants, and showing no understanding from Sultan Korkut as to my recent troubles.
