About the Lurian Herald
Day 28 of Spring

The Lurian Herald is the successor to many of Dwilight's previous newspapers - the Poryatown Press and the Dwilight Daily to name a few. For a long time, Dwilight has been without reliable and widespread news and so the House of Medici has taken up this task to serve our great continent. We do seek writers of all walks of lives and of all biases to write for the Lurian Herald. The newspaper itself is not strictly loyal to Luria, but its name comes from being based at the heart of Lurian lands, Giask. If you hold any interest, write to Alessio de Medici, and we shall bring you into the fold.

The Lurian Herald will be comprised of many forms of news - discussed in these pages will be philosophy, history, religion, politics, warfare, hobbies of the Highborn, anonymous advice, advertisements for taverns and academies and even those sent in by the readers of the Lurian Herald. Such advertisements are all free - the Lurian Herald is entirely funded by the House of Medici - we spare no expense.

Poetry - written by Karibash Ka Habb

You will no doubt remember the name of King Karibash from last week's edition regarding Tor, the God of War. This is one of his poems.

Valkyrjan walls stood vast

Before warriors of western worlds

So spoke the Saxon seereress

Of her victory ordained


Warborn Tórrarin with rage

Wreckless abandon wrought through him

Cried out courageously

At the peasant queen afar


My arm though broken was remade

From Tor's wrath I am giv'n

Unbreakable a guard arm made

With which your world be rend'd


Haruka' howled horrendous like

Warborn didn't even flinch

Forward her foul call

Fool was he to make she


The horns were heard all wide

War to remake our world

Two tribes together charged

History was made this day


The thousandslayer who built the walls

So cruelly fated to tear them down

The king crashed against their ranks

Terror, fear, and pain abound


The battle closed in sunlight

Warborn cried out aloud

The peasant queen fled with haste

Against the rage of Tor made mortal


So was Valkyrja broken

By the builder of her walls

The shieldarm sworn to protect

By Tor's anger made to destroy

Sanguis Astroism
Religion - by Alessio de Medici

Rather than much commentary, I will be retelling the prophecy as described by Sir Turin of Sanguis Astroism:


The Prince of Strife showed me...

A crimson lord riding

the earth, quakes

Two brothers arm in arm a jewel, lost

Three armies circling an eye

a trap, sprung

Four flags flying high

one frayed, falls

Five clouds concealing the Stars

a realm, ravaged

Six sheathed in shadows

a darkened dagger, drawn

Seven smiling rogues sit

a Queen, slain

Eight ships setting sail

a broken kingdom, won


Instead of explaining my thoughts, I ask you to ponder upon it yourself. What do you think?
