The first major battle of the Island happened two weeks ago when the new Ikalakian nobles, most of which were made up of old Sandalakian and Ikalakian veterans from the first war attacked the wars of Abykal. Unfortunatley the Ikalakian army led by Althea ran into an old "friend"..Boswick the new general of Sandalak led reinforcements from the south into Abykal to reinforce the already impressive miltia forcesMany had believed Boswick to have left the island so it was no suprise that many nobles from old Sandalak could not believe they were fighting there former leader.  Accompanied by the walls in Abykal the factors of suprise, already dug in troops led to a defeat in Abykal.

Sandalak has been thrown completely on the defensive as of late due to the combined assaults from Ikalak, Toren and Taselak.  This three on one assault has already cost Sandalak all but two of its regions, most notably the loss of Ibyp and Adrelhia to Ikalak, Fali to Toren and Gwohadda to Taselak has meant that Sandalak is completly cut off from Dwamon - the only other region still under Sandalaks control! To make matter worse for Sandalak, our glorius army broke through Sandalaks defences and occupied the cityWhen Sandalak finnaly took the city back when Ikalaks army moved to refitThey had a short time to rebuild there force before the next onslaught, which came today when our army aided by Toren's smashed Sandalaks defences for a second time this month.  Even though Sandalaks troops were highly trained they were utterly crushed by the shear amount of power directed at them. Outnumbered 3-1 the result was inevitable.  Although the attack was succesful the cost apears to have been high on all sidesIt is doubtful that Sandalak will ever recover from this onslaught.  
 
 
Boswick himself was quite vocal on the victory stating "Have you forgoten how to paint the walls with your enemies blood?  Im disapointed, first i had to paint the walls of the cave of guilt with Toren blood to let them no i was still here, then i had to paint the walls of sandalak red with tassie blood to remind penny that i was still here and now i have to paint the walls ok Abykal with Ikkie bloodHave you forgot the lessons you were taught under the big bad man and his brute squad?  Summon little ogre, its time for a long overdue ikkie soup."
 
 
 
Thankfully Sandalaks monster little ogre has yet to be seen on the field

The rogue regions of Aboal and Unagae stolen from Ikalak by greedy rogue barons have been liberated as the army of Ikalak quickly took control of the regions and delivered the peaseants back to the salvation and protection of the white city.  The grateful peasents have welcomed the return of Ikalakian forces and have been proving the army with a steady rate tax gold since.  Not long after, Mewun joined Ikalak in a hasty takeover.  The peasents clearly welcoming Ikalakian rule in the face of the oncoming battles.

Little has changed in polotics over the last month for Ikalak, however the situation in Taselak has changed greatly since Penny was elected to become the new queen. A highly populer choice for the Taselakian people where Penny is reguarded as one of the greatest generals of Taselaks history.
The realm of Toren has elected Phear as its new Pontifex.
 
The realm of Taselak has elected Serindu as its new King.
 
The realm of Sandalak has elected Sebastian as its new Dictator.  
 
  
These were the rulers iniatilly selected to lead there realms to victory, however there have already been many major political changes across the islandAlexia has stepped down as the ruler of Ikalak and has been replaced by Moonglum, a highly respected member of old Ikalak.  In Taselak a rebbelion was led by PennyAlthough this rebbelion was quickly defested it already shows that there is some serious political competition in Taselak, and in Sandalak the news that Boswick is staying may well lead to Boswick and Sebastian switching roles permenently should Sebastian be captured by an opposing realms army.

Little word has been heard from Toren and the political situation seems to be solidClearly Phear has proved more then adequate in running the mountain realm.  Sandalak also seems to be suprisingly stable and there appears to be little unrest however this may soon change as the occupation of Sandalak city for the second time takes its toll.

= Sandalak Under Siege =
Date: September 19th, 2006

Sandalak has been thrown completely on the defensive as of late due to the combined assaults from Ikalak, Toren and Taselak. This three on one assault has already cost Sandalak all but two of its regions, most notably the loss of Ibyp and Adrelhia to Ikalak, Fali to Toren and Gwohadda to Taselak has meant that Sandalak is completly cut off from Dwamon - the only other region still under Sandalaks control! To make matter worse for Sandalak, our glorius army broke through Sandalaks defences and occupied the city. When Sandalak finnaly took the city back when Ikalaks army moved to refit. They had a short time to rebuild there force before the next onslaught, which came today when our army aided by Toren's smashed Sandalaks defences for a second time this month. Even though Sandalaks troops were highly trained they were utterly crushed by the shear amount of power directed at them. Outnumbered 3-1 the result was inevitable. Although the attack was succesful the cost apears to have been high on all sides. It is doubtful that Sandalak will ever recover from this onslaught.


The Fallen!
Date: September 19th, 2006

Although the casualties have been high for the soldiers involved in this war, many forget that the nobles face just as great a risk as the soldiers themselves.

Hassan a great Sandalakian hero was killed during a battle in Gwohadda on the 26th last month during a vicous battle between Sandalak and Taselak. Although Sandalak did win the battle, Hassans wounds proved to great for him to survive. There is no higher honour then to die in the service of ones realm in battle. Truly one of the great hero's in Sandalaks history.

The Infiltraitor Trystrem was captured for the second time on the 29th last month. As he had already prieviouly been banned, the judge of Ikalak deemed him to be to dangerous to be left alive. Although deportation was considered there was a high chance that he would merely come back on the next ship to the South-East Island and pose just as high an assasination threat as he had in the past. With that in mind Jair decided his fate would be death. A harsh judgment, but one that will keep this proud nation safe from men of the shadows such as Trystrem.

The next death occured today when a relativly new Ikalakian noble, Vinatyfir dueled Sienna (a highly skilled swordsman of Sandalak and a veteran of the first war) to the death. His reasons are currently unknown. May he find peace in the next life.


Current politics
September 29th, 2006

Little has changed in polotics over the last month for Ikalak, however the situation in Taselak has changed greatly since Penny was elected to become the new queen. A highly populer choice for the Taselakian people where Penny is reguarded as one of the greatest generals of Taselaks history.

Little word has been heard from Toren and the political situation seems to be solid. Clearly Phear has proved more then adequate in running the mountain realm. Sandalak also seems to be suprisingly stable and there appears to be little unrest however this may soon change as the occupation of Sandalak city for the second time takes its toll.
