TREASON!

Eston is in turmoil after a conspiracy on the highest levels of the hierarchy was uncovered. Willy, former Queen and Arch Priestess was accused of conspiracy to commit regicide and conspiracy against the realm, after it was revealed that she sought after the assassination of Arch Priest Christofer and King Andrew. After this treason was exposed, Kahooli, Duke of Massillion and Dead Angel WG, Duke of Barad Riel sided with the former Queen. Willy claimed that the correspondence between her and an unknown enemy infiltrator was forged, and even suggested that the King himself was behind it, trying to force her out of the realm. The majority of Eston's nobles stand behind the King, but there are certain troopleaders who have remained neutral, or have expressed words of support for the traitor. Willy was given 24 hours to leave the realm voluntarily, after which the case would be revealed to the public, an offer she refused. Since she is royalty, she could not be exiled, upon which she was fined 250 gold for each day she remained in Eston.

Meanwhile, rumours went around that Kahooli had plans to seceede the duchy of Massillion, to form his own democratic regime. James, Count of Nazamroth, responded by breaking all ties with Massillion. Malor, Agnilar and Tintar remained loyal, for various reasons. At sunrise today, Massillion officially declared independence from Eston, and the entire duchy splintered off from the kingdom. Kahooli declared himself Chancellor of Massillion. Willy, who had been hiding in Massillion, joined the new democratic realm. Marouane, former Marshal of Massillion stated that Massillion belonged to Eston, and claimed the title of Duke of Massillion. Kahooli's reign has not been accepted by Eston, and preparations are underway to reclaim te city and its surrounding regions.
