The Great Marches!!! As you know wars have started between the Grand Lodge of Lunaria and Soliferum, strangely pretty much the whole continent jumped up and supported their allies which the Grand Lodge got help from pretty much all of the south and Soliferum got all the northerners. So now because of this we are marching back and forth, from the far end of the Far East back the north. A few of the nobles are starting to feel the tension but the higher in command are expecting the war to dull down soon. Predictions are being made that when Nighthelm loses enough regions they will surrender and thus make the help of Greater Aenilia unnecessary. In the matter of these marches, some of the nobles are starting to move strangely after all the added pressure. Troopleaders are starting to move out of position and not following orders quickly. The heart of these problems is centered at the new people who are still grasping their noble roles. - 07 Feb 01 Troopleader Influx Today is the day we predict the constant nobles will stop pouring in. At the moment the government is busy getting used to all the TL's and getting frustrated with their inability to follow orders efficiently. Our high council is being very tolerant currently but the situation could easily change because Greater Aenilia needs all their new troopleaders to be effective in aiding Soliferum. The new troopleaders are expected to march soon though and if not punishments probably will be utilized. With these new troopleaders also came some troublemakers. At the top of everyone's list would be Shada'Zan. This man has made a very unpopular début into Greater Aenilia by commenting everything that goes and always picking out the worst in everyone. Will Zan be able to win over the hearts that he's lost? Nah =) - 07 Feb 20 Council Stressed? People are starting to suspect the Greater Aenilian getting slightly stressed at the fact of so many new TL's not following orders. Some think it's because the council isn't used to this number of nobles that has never been witnessed in Greater Aenilia before. Many people speculate the council will be getting used to manage those who won't follow orders accordingly. A rare few think it will be their own demise? Weirdoes......- 07 Feb 21 Luyten Losing Respect A few days ago, Sir Igna, declared he would leave because he thought Luyten, Arch-Priest of Greater Aenilia, Duke of Nahad, foul. This set off the question from Kazuma about what Taith Aenil did wrong and why were they so bad? Luyten reacted like a bomb to this and exploded. This set off a chain reaction of protests against Luyten. People are getting angry at the Arch-Priest and feel unsafe under his gaze. Luyten's increasing amount of verbal anger is might end his reign as Arch-Priest. Luyten seems to be targeting his verbal diarrhea at Kazuma and Igna. Very very recently he seems to trying to hush everyone down with things like "I am not going to get into such a childish argument with you Kazuma, because if it is doing boil down to this sort of ridiculousness then it is not worth my time." or "DO NOT slander my name and begin an all out mud-slinging match to the realm. It accomplishes nothing. Bring your thoughts to my privately, and we will work them out." Luytens gonna remember this political scar.		Bits'n'Pieces of GA Many newcomers in Aenilia!!! The realm is flooding with more people than it has ever had in just two weeks. Lately there have been many marching difficulties because the new ones for some reason won't move out of the Aenilian lands? The mentors are being overloaded with new students because of the noble increase!!! At least now they can write lots of new books. The one good things about the influx on troopleaders is that lords can finally have a decent amount of knights. Meaning they can have lots of estates in their region, is that good or bad? Depends how the lords look at it. Rumours are flying in on adventurers partying near the kings palace, peeving all the nobles off and the king himself. We are working to subdue them. Annoying new guys? Some on the people in GA are starting to get annoyed at a particular new noble named Shada'zan who can't keep his mouth shut.

Monthly

Monthly Interview The interview with Lord Luyten, Arch Priest of Greater Aenilia, Duke of Nahad Q1) Do you have any ambitious plans for Greater Aenilia in future? Answer still pending..... . . . Q2) Do you truly feel Greater Aenilia has improved from Taith Aenil? How? Answer still pending..... . . . Q3) Do you think all the newcomers will positively contribute to our realm? Answer still pending..... . . .

Kazuma's Monthly Words of Wisdom Is there a time when you find yourself wishing for a war of our own? Do you want to leave because of this? A common problem in Greater Aenilia is that we hardly get to fight wars that we have a reason to hate the enemy. We hardly get a taste of a real personal war. To think of why this is and get frustrated will get you nowhere. One must try and reach inside himself and think, is war really what I want? If not then you have found a greater depth to your mind. If the answer is still yes then there is alternate mindsets you can have to avoid being frustrated with situation. One must always remember that war will come and one must wait for it. Because if you decide to wait. When war comes, the spoils will be greater because of the welled up respect you have been bestowed throughout the times of peace. You may go around the world looking for war and find it each time. However it will get you nowhere if you are only fighting fo the actual joy of fighting. One must know the reason he fights and one must embrace it. Thus when it is the time of peace, you should take the time to absorb the realm and let it and you bond so when war comes, the reason the realm is at war will rush through your veins and you will know the reason you fight. That is the only long and tedious path of a true hero. Monthly Question How do you measure if a cup is exactly half full without using any measuring instruments? The first one to answer it correctly will receive 50 gold. Monthly Products hmm the producer of these mustn't like scribes...... Product 1) We call this, the scribe club. Do you ever get a little angry with you scribes? What about when they make spelling mistakes? This club is perfectly shaped to crunch a scribes skull. It comes in all colours, available in Idapur. Product 2) This is the scribe cooker. It is a long sharp steel pole with a very sharp end, that comes with a great big stove obviously. The purpose of the stick is, while your scribe is retardedly writing some letter. Just give a quick jab the rear and "ta-da", you have a scribe-kebab. Put this over the stove and he should be done in no-time. Mmmmmmm.....yummy. Scribe-killers is a trademark of killing-scribes-corp all rights reserved.

Global News

Detailed Reports Cid Elected - 2nd Feb Soliferum elected a new Prime Minister two days ago. We are surprised that a lot of people don't already know him because apparently he is a well known figure throughout Soliferum and now the figurehead of Soliferum. This new man seems to be able to handle discussing calmly with enemies and seems to handle things with a good rulers touch. Nobody has seen any angry behaviour and he seems like a fairly upright man. Gul'Dan, A Good Talker - 12th Feb Rumours have it that Gul'Dan, King of Nighthelm is trying to talk his way out of the great war that Nighthelm got into by being allies the with the Grand Lodge of Lunaria. Talk is flying around that "The smooth talker Gul'Dan is trying to end our fun". Rulers are hinting that Gul'Dan might have just got his way out of this one. Soliferum on the Verge of Defeat? - 15th Feb The Grand Lodge has taken a lot of Soliferum and Nighthelm is also advancing making life very tough. It doesn't look like Cid can negotiate a ceasefire and the fate of Soliferum is looking grim. Svunnetland and Greater Aenilia are moving in and distracting Nighthelm and slowing the possible inevitable defeat of beautiful Soliferum. Nighthelm possibly may stop the attack on Soliferum but the Grand Lodge does not look like it will stop any time soon. Rumour has it that some nobles are gambling high sums of money over the matter primarily in Antoza Commonwealth. As for Antoza in the actual fight. They have declared themselves helping Nighthelm but they have recently kept their heads quite low.

Magna Aenilia Ecclesia

The Church Council February 10th
A few days ago Lord Luyten, the disciple of Prophet Orphen Vincent, announced that the church council positions are soon to be filled. Many religious nobles applied for the positions but only the most dedicated were chosen. For the Legate as General and will lead the religious armies, the Syndic as the Judge and the Chamberlain as the Banker.	These positions were filled by Rhather Frostnova as Legate, Olaf McDugan as Syndic and Kazuma Shenron as Chamberlain. The council together has made an effective on the church and is waking up everyone to how seriously the church takes our ranks and how much they can achieve out of worshipping the Aenil.

Two new Temples!!! February 18th

Today firstly we need to explain how fortunate we are for these temples. The first temple built was from Rhather, The Legate of the Church, in Lantzas. He took it that he must set an example for other lords as he is in a high positions and show his dedication and that is one of the best shows of dedication you can get. Our high priest was quick on the job and upgraded it to actually make it beautiful. Good job you two =) May your service to the Aenil never cease to a halt.

Our second temple was built by a newer but equally as powerful member, Lord Thrasymaque, Duke of Topenah. When he came in he became infatuate with our religious community and informed us he'd build a temple straight away. That he definitely owned up too and built a nice little temple in Topenah. He promises in time this will grow to possibly one of the largest temples that the Aenil have ever seen on mortal earth, as Topenah is the second biggest city in the whole Far East.

Adelina Accused February 18th

Two days ago the fairly new, Lord Septimius, accused Adelina of being part of the chaos requiem. Many wonder if the allegations are part of the church or just Ethialan hate for Adelian since she betrayed them at Colasan. This might be the case as Lord Thrasymaque and various other Ethialans don't find humour in the subject and want Adelina ejected from the church. A lot of non-ethialans are claiming that it is an Ethialan dispute only. The argument Lord Septimius gave was that the chaos requiem was evil. The problem with this is at the time the Magna's Aenilia Ecclesia's view of the Chaos Requiem was set to "Ignore".

That sealed the fact it was legal to what Adelina had done for the church however Orphen, The Prophet, is puzzled from all the pressure from Thrasymaque and Septimius of what should be done with Adelina. The Syndic, Olaf, argue there is no evidence or proof to support anyones case and until then he won;t act. An Ethialan, Rhather thinks it's necessary to take Adelina's head in a duel top the death. Whatever the outcome, it won't be easy but not if we choose Rhathers'. I mean come on if that happens nobody get's hurt (that we care about)
