+ | |headline=New Newspaper same Demented Ramblings | ||
+ | |article=After a very controversial first newspaper who copied the layout and went out of business rather fast it seems Sirion has opened a new newspaper. | ||
+ | |||
+ | |||
+ | As what seemed to be a new approach and a good start except for the name the new journalist had to ruin EVERYTHING. We shall forever mourn this journalist who is definitely retarded enough to count 240,000 weird creatures called "elves" | ||
+ | |||
+ | |||
+ | It is said the gods have allowed a few "select" in Sirion to say they are elves so we can all sit here and enjoy mocking their complete delusional ways. Then we have another larger group of elf wannabees on which I will no go no further on. | ||
+ | |||
+ | |||
+ | To further the nail in the coffin that any Sirionite who claims they are an elf we tell you this. When you somehow reach 2000 years of age you will be believed. I suggest till then refrain from deforming your ears anymore then they already are. | ||
+ | |||
+ | |||
+ | I will not even begin to mention how building cities in Sirion, Parm, Slimbar a stronghold is Sir Temple and defiling all the trees in Oporto, Braga and Commonyr all help this cause. | ||
+ | |||
+ | |||
+ | To conclude I highly doubt this will open any eyes in Sirion but the few that realise the truth can silently <s>histerically</s> laugh along with the rest of us.}} | ||

+ | |headline=Caligus Lack of Offensive | ||
+ | |article=Seemingly Caligus is having quite a hard time keeping a few regions under control thus they have been unable to push a an offensive on Westmoor who are defending. Reports have it regions have been improving very slowly. It will still be a while till they are under full production. | ||
+ | |||
+ | So with that we dont expect any fieresome battles in the next few days but hopefully soon the war will start picking up. | ||
+ | |||
+ | Newest report is Caligus has reclaimed Meuse after having it go rogue.}} | ||
+ | |||
+ | {{Caligusleft | ||
+ | |date=October 30, 2010 | ||
+ | |headline=All is too quiet | ||
+ | |article=Lately there has been a distinct lack of conflict between Caligus and Westmoor. One has to wonder what both armies are doing for the most part. | ||
+ | |||
+ | However two days ago Westmoor decided to launch an offensive. The offensive consisted of 3K CS...more or less a raiding party. However, ironically not much raided was done and they were sent back scurrying to Westmoor tail between their legs. One has to really wonder what military strategy and how Westmoor intends to actually win this war. | ||
+ | |||
+ | We will leave that up the talented minds in Westmoor. More to come tomorrow and we will close this months edition.}} | ||
+ | |||

+ | |date=October 29, 2010 | ||
+ | |headline=Sirionite Vs Pickle | ||
+ | |article=Two days ago young Sir Yehppael Ther rose up from being a common noble to a knight. Little did he know his knighthood would end with a valiant battle against a pickle. | ||
+ | |||
+ | The offical report says the following: | ||
+ | |||
+ | |||
+ | <b>Choked on a pickle, during a midnight raid on the larder, since no one was around to help, death was imminent.</b> | ||
+ | |||
+ | |||
+ | We all mourn the death of this young promising knight. We hope other Sirionites fare much better in raids.}} | ||
+ | |||
+ | {{Caligusleft | ||
+ | |date=October 26, 2010 | ||
+ | |headline=Lets tell everyone the same story with different twists! | ||
+ | |article=Normally when you tell people a story you keep to the same fundamentals. However, King Corwin from Westmoor decided to do something else. Lets tell opposing factions the same story with completely opposite fundamentals so we dont look bad to anyone unless they somehow find out. | ||
+ | |||
+ | |||
+ | Im pretty sure the chances of SoA and Sirion talking were very very small since they decided to "cease" all contact with each other. However, Sultan David of the Sultanate decided to write to King Dobromir of Caligus as to why the war was going on between Westmoor and Caligus specifically. Very obviously no one except King Corwin knows that he himself declined outright peace with Caligus and Sirion with no terms whatsoever. | ||
+ | |||
+ | |||
+ | To prove that nobles in Westmoor have absolutely no clue that their ruler even did this is the recent announcement from King Dobromir | ||
+ | |||
+ | |||
+ | '''Prisoner Dodgy has sent you a letter: | ||
+ | |||
+ | |||
+ | While I languish in your prison I have been thinking. Why are you at war with my realm? Why are we at war with you? You attack us and we fight back. You attack again and we fight back. Surely we are at a stalemate. This continuing war cannot be good for either realm. What did we do in the past that makes you continue a protracted war against us even though vistory is at the least complicated and definately uncertain?''' | ||
+ | |||
+ | |||
+ | Very obviously something is wrong besides Westmoor knights even making claims that the war is a stalemate. | ||
+ | |||
+ | |||
+ | Now to uphold that what the article prints is true we will attach letters that we're sent between rulers that King Dobromir shared. | ||
+ | |||
+ | |||
+ | We are attaching a short supplement so the article isnt too long. | ||

+ | |headline=Drunk or insane? Perhaps both | ||
+ | |article= Yesterday our duke after a few days decided to take action finally. CRG was sitting without an official marshal for a few days. | ||
+ | |||
+ | First he decided to do the following. <br> | ||
+ | <b> | ||
+ | New Marshal Announced <br> | ||
+ | The sponsor of the Caligus Red Gryphons, Cuthbert Von Ulthuan, Duke of Hamadan, has announced a new marshal: Markus von Richthofen (Knight of Viseu). He replaces Sir Suwarin Sarracenia, Count of Abadan.</b><br> | ||
+ | |||
+ | Then right after announcing a new marshal he....well I got nothing how to explain this.<br> | ||
+ | <b> | ||
+ | Army Dissolved <br> | ||
+ | Your army has been dissolved by its sponsor, Cuthbert Von Ulthuan, Duke of Hamadan. Your liege can assign you to a new army.</b><br> | ||
+ | |||
+ | Immediate following his <s>drunken insane stupor</s> mistake. He decided to make an amazing new army with a "new" name.<br> | ||
+ | |||
+ | <B>New Army Founded<br> | ||
+ | Cuthbert Von Ulthuan, Duke of Hamadan has founded a new army named "Caligus Red Gryphons" and based in Hamadan.</b><br> | ||
+ | |||
+ | For future reference we would highly recommend Duke Cuthbert to get some help <s> hopeless</s> and to quit drinking <s>even less likely</s>.}} | ||

+ | |date=October 21, 2010 | ||
+ | |headline=New Newspaper Description! | ||
+ | |article= Due to lameness of the old description and the my personal hopes to not go into bankruptcy by selling too many free copies we are now advertising that we are "Unoriginal, Uninformative and boring. Go away!" Now if any of you think I'm doing this for any other reason for my personal enjoyment you are vastly mistaken. I hope you can all buzz off now and stop stealing my paper.}} | ||

+ | |headline=Debacle in Partora! | ||
+ | |article= Reports have in not two days ago Caligus received the regions of Partora and Mulhouse as per peace treaty. However the unexpected thing was the influx of knights that came with it including Queen Balkeese herself. Perhaps the Queen is not quite <s>sane</s> well. Either way the Perdanese knights that came against their <s>lazyness</s> will tried to pin the blame on lack of announcement on also tried to pin it on Caligus! | ||
+ | |||
+ | The facts is Queen Balkeese herself asked that the region transfer goes this way so that Perdan wouldnt have to do alot of region maintenance. So Duke Kevin joined Perdan 8 days before his appointment followed by this announcement yes again by Queen Balkeese herself seven days before the regions actually swapped over | ||
+ | |||
+ | <b>''Letter from Balkeese Indirik <br> | ||
+ | Message sent to everyone in your realm (43 recipients)<br> | ||
+ | Nobles of Perdan,<br> | ||
+ | |||
+ | Within the next day, I will be appointing a new Duke of Partora in order to fulfill our treaty obligations. From that point, there will be a one week delay before the duchy of Partora, which includes the city of Partora and the region of Mulhouse, changes allegiance to Caligus.<br> | ||
+ | |||
+ | All the nobles of the duchy who do not want to change allegiance to Caligus along with the regions should begin looking for a new liege lord.<br> | ||
+ | Lady Balkeese Indirik<br> | ||
+ | Queen of Perdan''</b> | ||
+ | |||
+ | Not only this both regions came to Caligus hungry meaning all food was sent out of the coffers before switched over. Albeit the regions were definately not handed over in the best shape there are no protests but as we are the newspaper no one is safe! No even our <s>grumpy</s> good king! | ||
+ | |||
+ | Not much but it seem a couple have decided to embrace their new life here in Caligus. We wish them well! }} | ||

So there you have it everyone. The Sirion Chronicle is a sad story of a newspaper and I can safely claim it is a completely boring, unoriginal newspaper which a monkey can write better. | So there you have it everyone.
